I knew that things had to change. I knew that she was gonna be angry at me. I knew that Allison had fallen in love with Adam but I needed the money. I needed to survive no matter what.

That is why I planned on telling her. I knew it would rock her world and it would hurt her so much but not telling made me feel worse. I felt guilty and guilty as time went on.

I would have told Allison from the beginning but I was way to ashamed of myself and Adam knew it.

Allison sees Adam as this amazing person who had saved her from her misery but little did she know that this was all planned. Adam purposely lost the game to sell Allison. He fakes his love to her just so she can fill his lustful desires.

I always wanted to tell her but Adam would some how get in the way and he knew that I was gonna tell her eventually so that is why he decided to sell me as well.

He thinks that getting rid of me is going to make me not tell Allison everything that he had been doing.

Well he was wrong.

As tears ran down my face I couldn't help but think about all the good times Allison and I had.

Like when I first came here and everyone treated me like shit because I was a red head with dimples, but she was the first one to defend me.

The one time when we stayed up all night just talking about how much we wanted to get out of this place and live on our own.

Thinking about all of these memories just makes me so sad as now we were gonna be separated. I will never see her ever again nor will I ever speak to her ever again.

As I wiped my eyes my blurry vision became more clear. I saw Allison standing there tears washing all over her pail face.

I stretched out my open arms plastering a smile on my face. I needed to be happy. At least for her. I needed to show her that leaving here was the best thing that was gonna happen to her.

"Allison," I cried out as I rested my head on her bony right shoulder. I looked up at her and we both started to laugh. We looked like a whole mess. Our mascara was all over the place and the sweat the we had somehow created was now making our whole face look like we had dipped it in highlighter, oh and sis that was not a good look.

It was kind of awkward as we didn't really know what to say. Like how do you say goodbye when you don't want the person to leave. How do you say see you soon when you know that you will never see that person again.

"You know I'm gonna miss you right?" Allison had spoke out breaking the awkward silence that was between us.

"I'm gonna miss your strawberry blonde hair being wiped in my face..." I laughed. She hated that a lot. It would piss her off so much that one time in the middle of the night I caught her having a attempt at actually trying to cut it. And boyyyyyyy was I mad.

Oh and my hair was always in her face because of static electricity and no I'm not bother to tame that beast down.

"...I'm gonna miss our late night discussion on how smart you are and how dumb I am-" I cut her off by saying

" you are not dumb Allison. You're smart, beautiful, strong and ambitious. That's why when you leave here you are going to have a great life," I said in a convincing tone. She was strong.
