Heaven

2) Wake up

Every morning I would get up, make myself breakfast at 6:30, and take a walk in the beautiful garden but not this time.

Today I woke up feeling like something is going to happen even though I knew it was not something good, my gut disagreed. The feeling would not go away, this feeling of excitement and happiness. I certainly shouldn't be feeling this today even though it is my birthday.

Today I would execute my plan. My plan to get to my loved ones but it was to early to do that yet so I got myself ready for the day and prepared my already packed suitcase. It was very small but as an orphan you learn not to pack a lot because you never know when your adopt parents did not want you anymore.

I walked down the big staircase, which led me to the living room where nobody was because it was a Saturday and I was always an early bird. On my way to the kitchen I felt the feeling in my stomach again. I shrugged it off hoping it was just because I was hungry. After my delicious breakfast I was about to go do my routine morning walk in the garden, when I looked at the clock and saw it was 7 am.

I am 18 now. Right at this moment I was born 18 years ago. Tears were forming in my eyes but I held them in, knowing it would soon be over and I would maybe feel something other than rage and sadness.

I ran as fast as my feet could carry me and knocked on the door of mrs and mr Smith. I know I could not get anymore cliché than this.

The family consisted of Hannah Smith, who is in her late 30's, John Smith, he is in his mid 40's and the twins who are both girls, 8 and spoiled brats.
They opened the door and were shocked when they saw me, as I actually never tried to be social with them or have any contact .

,,What's wrong Katherine?", Hannah asked in her faked worried voice, as if she really cared. She ones actually forgot me in the mall and came back after 3 hours and did not even say sorry. Anyways, her husband stood beside her, not looking pleased with my look, actually with my whole being but I could not care less right now.

I said as confident and fast as I could : ,, I am 18 now and I am allowed to officially move out of here to get my own place, I just wanted to say goodbye and thank you for giving me a home, even if it did not last that long." And even added a smile afterwards because I truly meant what I said.

On both faces were looks of relief and I surprisingly did not give a damn right then, I was just too excited to get out of here. Hannah and John said their fare wells to me and I took off as quickly as I could.

Far away from that house. I did not even say good bye to the twins. Who cares they will both just forget me anyways.

With my suitcase, I ran to the forest that I knew like my back hand. As I said I prepared this my whole life and after I got here I automatically did my rounds to see where it would be the best place to do it.

After 2 hours of walking, I got to a beautiful clearing that is a long way away from the Smiths so nobody would suspect that it was their fault.

After all, you can go to jail for murdering, right ?
