Overjoyed //Teo Halm book 3

Shot

I woke up in a hospital room, and the events from last night flooded my brain.

The doctors rushed in.

"Honey, we need you to tell us how you got shot." they said.

"Shot?" I said confused.

"Yes honey. you were short. It was rather close to your heart I might add." one stated.

It all clicked.

It made sense.

My father had shot me.

"I-i think it was my father." I said tears forming in my eyes.

"Alright honey thanks. We can let you go now." one of them said as the rest took out the Needles from my arms.

Well I can't believe they would do that. MY OWN FATHER SHOT ME AND MY MOTHER SLAPPED ME.

I hopped out of the hospital bed and changed in the bathroom.

I was now wearing sweats and a gray hoodie and shirt.

"Lira!" Teo called.

I turned around and hugged him. We kissed lots. It felt good to be in his embrace.

"Let's Run away together." he said, love lacing his voice.

"Sure." I said remembering how this was just like my dream.

"Let's go grab your stuff." he said as he grabbed my hand.

I walked to his car and got in.

We drove to my house as we quietly got in and crept up to my room.

I got a bag and filled it up with the things I wanted and zipped it shut.

Time to go.

"Honey?" My mom called out.

Oh great.

Teo grabbed my bag and tossed it out the window. I hoped nothing had broke.

"Hello?" My mom called as we hid in my huge closet.

"Honey I know your here." she said entering my room.

She looked around my room for about 8 minutes before giving up.

She crept around my room silently before leaving the room.

"I think we have a visitor." I mom yelled to my dad.

We exited the closet and started to run down the stairs.

We pushed my mom out of the way and she screamed.

My dad came to the hallway but he was to late we were already headed for the car. Teo ran outside as I grabbed the stash of money that my parents kept in a box under the bench we have at the front door.

I just took All of it.

I got outside still hearing the screams from my mom inside.
Teo motioned for me to get in the car and I did.

I shut the door and Teo started driving to the interstate.

He kissed quickly and while he drove I counted and saw that I had stolen 10,500 $ from my parents.

I smiled wanting them to reject letting me go.
