At lunch; at school, I was sitting with the group of course.
"Oh my gosh dena, how in the world did you get so beat up?" Polly asked.
"Yeah you look like you got hit by a freight train or somethin' Molly said.
Clara had her face in her phone.
She looked up and gasped.
"Miller just asked me out!" Clara said.
Everyone at the table gasped....but me.
I held my head.
"Can you guys just shush about guys!!"
I mumbled. Tina stood up out of the chair.
"No because we don't need your advice dena!" Tina scowled.
"I'm glad I don't have to deal with all of you anymore because I'm running away from home tonight!" I scowled back.
I can't take my father anymore.
He's been abusing me way to long.
I know momma will be fine but as long as I am there....I will never be safe.
So therefore, I'm running away tonight.
"What?!? Why are you running away?"
Clara asked.
"To get away from my abusive father!"
"Well, good riddance!" Tina said evilly sitting back down.
"Good riddance to you too Tina."
Later on I was sitting on my bed after silvers daily training.
I am texting Blaire.
(Hey Blaire...I have to tell you something)
(Howdy! What's happening dena?)
(I'm really going to miss you)
(Why?)
(Because I am running away tonight)
(What!! Why?)
(I just have to get away from my dad. I can't take him doing this to me anymore. I have too)
(For how long are you going to be gone?)
(Forever)
(NO!!!!!!! Dena you can't!)
(I'm sorry Blaire but I have to do this)
(But what about us?)
(We will always still text each other right?)
(Yeah but I want to see you in person!)
(I do too but there's nothing I can do)
(But...)
(I'm sorry Blaire but....this is.....
Goodbye)
