Doubts ( Part ten out now)

Chapter 5: 3.00 AM

Chapter 5: 3:00 AM.

The moment I left my home, I felt a relieve. But also a fear... I have the feeling that I am either making the biggest mistake of my life, or the best decision I have ever made. I don't know why though.. I am only leaving for a week! To my best friend, what could possibly happen??

Would you be able to get your brain and thoughts
refreshed in such circumstances? My parents just told me I'm
adopted... have some empathy!

I am walking... and walking... and walking!! I forgot how much 20 kilometres is! Help me!! I mean, it's not possible to walk 20 kilometres in 3 hours. I underestimated it, I've been walking for ages! ( then I looked behind me) I was a 100 metres away from my house... jup this is gonna be a looonggg journey. 🙄.

Like.. an hour later (4:06 AM)
I am exhausted, I need to call Layla that I won't make it until at least 8 AM If I keep walking. But my legs are starting to give up, I tell myself to keep walking.. honestly? I regret going away from home, I was warm under the covers but now I'm outside. It's 4:15 AM, I am scared and cold.

Right now, I'm sitting on a bench in the park around 7 kilometres from my house. I have been walking for more than an hour and I just want to sleep. I could just wait for a bus or call a taxi but it's way too late and I have no money with me. Only a bag with food and water.

I do need to start walking now though, I got a little caught up in eating my food and drinking my water.

So with that written I stand up. Oh no... I need to pee!
I looked around me but there was not one toilet in sight.
It's time to make a decision.. either pee in my pants or in the bushes.

I tried to be as quite as possible while sneaking to the bushes, nobody can see me!

After my relieving pee, I walked further towards Layla's home.
It's 5:24 right now and I still have 8 kilometres to go... my feet hurt so much right now!

I have been writing a lot.. and I don't seem to recognize the way I am going. Wait! NO, it can't be! AM I LOST?! Nonononono, I knew this was a mistake!

I am alone, outside.. GPS! Yes that's the answer. I just need to look where I am.

(5 minutes later) 

you are not going to believe this... I am so stupid! I dropped my phone. It broke, it's literally completely dead, broken. Why does this sh*t happen to me NOW?!?!?!

Well great. I don't know where I came from, I don't know where I have to go. It's dark and the only people I see are mannequins from shops. Can this get any better?!

Of course that's the moment it begins to rain. I really need to keep my big mouth shut for once!

SH*T I just thought of the fact that I won't be able to tell anyone that I am okay.. that's not good. Layla and Noah and my parents are going to be so worried.

I feel guilty for walking away, they probably kept it from me for a reason. Right?? UGH who am I kidding? What possible good reason could there be for them to keep this from me? That's what I thought, none. I just can't believe how they could do this to me, they told me stories about how much I looked like them when I was a kid. Why didn't they just tell me sooner? Why didn't Noah tell me something? I thought me and Noah were brother and sister goals but apparently he lied to me too, except if he didn't know about it. He had to know about it though, I mean like he was six he would have to kno....

Guys?

There's someone in the bushes I see some creepy eyes staring at me, I need to RUN!

Here's what happened: I started running and running and I ended up leaving my backpack with an empty plastic bottle and a few pieces of bread with the creepy eyes because I threw it at him/ her/it. Can you blame me though? Anyway. So I ran as fast as I could until I ended up falling to the ground scratching my arm open against a branch. There is a good and a bad side to my situation at the moment. The good side is that I have lost the creepy eyed thing in the bushes, the bad side is that I have absolutely no Idea where I am. It is pitch-black out here and its freaking me out. I am on an open space where the moonlight shines just bright enough to see the blood dripping from my arm. This can't be! It must have been the adrenaline causing the fact that I did not feel this at all. I mean, sure I felt something.. but I thought it was just a scratch. Not a cut this deep! I am feeling a bit lightheaded, I think I lost too much blood already. I looked down to my feet seeing a little puddle of blood forming right beside my right foot. "NO", I screamed while pulling my shirt over my head, I am using my shirt to keep pressure on the wound.

I should have just stayed home! Why do I need to be THIS stupid?

I have absolutely no clue how late it is but all I know is that it is still pitch-black out here, how am I supposed to find my way out now huh? I will never get home like this! But I need to stay awake, I do not want to have the chance of never waking up again looking at the wound I have on my arm.

(about 2 hours later)

My entire body is trembling. It's a combination of fear, pain, adrenaline, anger and also just because I am cold. I have no water and I feel a bit dehydrated, I expected to be at Layla's house by now. But no, I just HAD to walk the wrong direction. It got a bit lighter, I think the sun is about to come up. I am lucky that I wore a shirt below the t-shirt I bounded around my wound. My legs are turning weaker and I don't know what to do, I think I should just hope to find someone who could call 911 for me. But I don't know how long that will take from now. I have the feeling that I won't have too much time until I will pass out, I need water soon.

I hear something behind me, it sounds like footsteps. A person! I turn around full of joy just to get startled with what I saw. A rage of fear fills my body, because what I saw was........

To be continued...

What will happen next? What is it that I am so scared of? Will I survive all of this? Find out in the next part.
