The Mask

CHAPTER 17

After a few days, Jennifer decided to pay her parents a little visit and see how they are doing. While walking, Jennifer asked herself,

"Why won't I start wandering around?"

Jennifer did what Sharmaine had said to her, she started to become familiar to the place of where she at. After she started to get familiar with the place, she now went to his parents' house. After starting to get familiar with the place, she saw her parents walking, and went inside to a place, but not at their house, they were at a place very dark and tight.

"What are they doing at this kind of place?"

She sneaked into a corner to see what they are about to talk about, she heard them whispering,

"We should find Jennifer and restrict her from going outside." her mother said,

"I agree with that, because it will be dangerous if she met someone, but how will we find her? Now that she can't accept the truth about her." her father asked,

"You're right, I think we should look for her right now, we should not waste time It's dangerous for her to be outside alone." her mother replied,

Jennifer could've wanted to hear what they are about to say next and she definitely doesn't want to get caught by her parents. Jennifer quickly ran away with her tears dripping from her eyes.

"Did you hear something?" her father said,

"Yes, someone is at that corner, go look for it." her mother replied.

Her father peeked and said, "There was nothing there, maybe they were just cats and dogs fighting around." her father replied,

"Good because I don't want anyone to know this, let's go find Jennifer." her mother said.

Jennifer went back to the park and cried, she sat down under a tree and cried,

"Why do they always treat me like a child? The next time I go back, I will show them that I can handle myself all on my own, I won't need their help and I will not accept any help from them."

As she cried, she slowly fell asleep and couldn't help it. Her parents are worried about her, they started to roam and look for her. Surprisingly they found her, lying down under the tree. They quickly approached her and woke her up.

"Jennifer wake up," her mother said,

"Huh? What?" she said,

"Is everything okay?" her father said,

Jennifer backed up and said nothing, she looked down to them and ignored them,

"What's the matter? Were here to help, just say anything" her mother said,

"Nothing," she answered,

"Come on Jennifer we know there is something wrong, just says anything we'll fix It." her mother said,

Jennifer was so pissed that she accidentally yelled at them,

"I said nothing! Just leave me alone!"

Her father grabbed her and said,

"Stop it! What's your problem? We're just trying to help."

When his father's grip went loose, Jennifer ran away without saying any word. A few days after that, she went back and her parents greeted her,

"Oh? Your back, good to see you again." her father said.

Jennifer glared with her cold eyes and went to her room. Her parents couldn't do anything about it and just allowed to let her be.
