The Run Away

The Run Away ch3

Chapter 3

So that's how I ended to here in this barren waste land.

Well not really a 'barren waste land' but it felt that way to me. It was not my home. Nowhere I went was my home.

Over the past year I've been twisting and turning staying in hotels, motels and even my car if needs be.

At that time I was in a car park surrounded by a hundred different cars and people.

And they were all giving my car envious looks. Well stay away bitches!

Hehe. Everyday is the same. Eat, lookout, drive, sleep. Everyday I wa faced with different things. From a drunk man in the alley to a parking ticket on my windscreen.

Each time I run. I can't run forever. I know that, but I can sure as hell try!

I did this all to stay away from them. Bailey and who ever he works with that is.

At the moment I was in my Andy, thats what I called my car he needed a name seen as i was always in it, with Squishy on my lap.

Oh right I've not mentioned him have I? Yeah Squishy's my dog a pug to be exact.

I found him about a month after I left. He was on the streets. Abandoned. I don't know has anyone could though, he's so sweet! He has a epic personality and always picks me up when I feel sad and down.

He's kept me company since, he's the only thing that keeps my sane on my long nights of nothing but fear. Long long nights. I don't think I've had one good nights sleep ever since I became The Run Away.

Now don't go thinking I'm living on the streets or anything I have money, plenty of money. I just don't us my cash card much because every time I do I have to move on.

Traceable cash cards and all.

So ya I always have Squishy with me all the time.

Even in the hotels he hides in my bag until we're in the room. He's a great companion and guard dog too.

He can sense danger, this one time I was on my way back to where I was staying when this guy, dressed up all fancy and that, came up to me saying all about how I can help the homeless yada yada.

I was about to give him some money when Squishy growled at him and the man was so scared of Squishy he right away from me. I don't think he liked dogs.

But as he ran He dropped his so called donation sheet an at the too it said 'Money Scammed' that's when I realises he was just trying to get my money and that Squishy had a gift.

It really helps having him there I don't know what I would do without him.

I have leart so much from being The Run Away including how to fight! I got a few lessons about 2 months after I left and now I was awesome!

The amount of times I have been attacked is unreal but I fought them all of with my amazing skills!

I had a flip knife as well because you never know when you might need it. But I've not used it for self-defence.

Yet.

"So how are you today Mr. Squishy?" Yes I know what your thinking she's talking to a dog.

He gave me a small bark and a almost lop sided smile. Putting his head to one side and showing his teeth. I burst out laughing at the sight it was so funny.

Then he gave me a nudge as if to keep on talking to him, so I did.

"Ok your good! I'm not, I miss them. My friends my family. Like always you must be sick of me talking about it but I can't help it!"I said my mood dampening just thinking about them. I took a deep breath and sighed.

"My dad too, I know he's dead but he is still in my heart! I wonder how Calab is? He never did get the answers to the questions I asked him. What about you do you miss your family" I chuckled when I remembered to crazy things I'd asked Caleb the day I left.

However it soon turned to sobs with the thought of never seeing any of them again.

"Why did this happen to ME!" I screamed.

Squishy whimpered with the harshness and the loud tone of my voice.

"I'm sorry Squishy, I'm sorry!" I praised him and handed him a treat I kept in the glove box of the Audi.

"There you go all better!" I smiled.

I spent the rest of the day talking to Squishy, listening to the radio and thinking about my family.

I wonder if they miss me as much as I miss them? I hope they do. I wish I could have said goodbye to them. Especially Caleb oh how I miss him and all his crappy jokes. However bad they may be.

Ive never got used to being away from them, and I don't think I ever will to be honest. They were my whole world and I would have done every thing for them.

But because my dad did that for me he is now dead. I will no let that happen.

EVER!

I may not have family anymore, but I'll always have Squishy.

But even with that thought my mind still fell back into the darkness of my old life and the time I was with Bailey.

Happy times and dark times, like when my dad never came home from going to work and when I heard Bailey on the phone to 'rob' the day I ran.

The Day I Became The Run Away.

And Zac filled it too. Yes he was still there even after everything! Will he ever leave the hell hole of my mind? No.
