I held the gun to his head while he snickered. I slapped the back of his head to cease his laughing. "Shut the fuck up motherfucker. Why the fuck do you think this shit is a joke?" "Because baby, I love you." I slowly put the gun down as he turned around and cupped my face in his hands and leaned in for a kiss. I leaned in for one too until I came to my senses. I pushed him away and dropped my gun. I backed away slowly. "Al." I continued to back away. Then I ran and ignored his effort to call me back. I ran as fast as I could. I ran from everything since I no longer had anything. I ran for a new life. This is just the beginning.

3 Years Later
"Hi, welcome to FootLocker. Let me know if you need anything." I greeted with a smile. "Thanks." The young girl said. I could tell she was pretty even though her back was turned. She had long red hair and tattoos everywhere. She looked pretty familiar if you ask me. She picked up a pair of pink Nike Roshes and turned around and flashed a smile. I immediately recongized her. I was just hoping she didnt remember me. "Um, excuse me?" She called.

I looked up from the shoe of a toddler I was helping with and looked her way in the crowded store. "I'll be right there miss." She nodded and turned back around looking at more shoes. After I was done helping the toddler and his family, I walked over to.....her. "H-hey. What could I help you with." She turned around and began to stare at me and I grew nervous and uncomfortable. She looked at my nametag and smiled. "Alli, could I get this in a 6 please?" She handed me her shoe. "Yeah no problem." I went to the back to retrieve her shoe.

I came back and soon it was just her and 5 other customers in,due to the fact that it was 10 minutes near closing. "Here you go." I said handing her the box the shoes were in. She grabbed it and looked at them. "Perfect. Oh and, I missed you sis." She sobbed while giving me a hug. Tears trickled down my face and I smiled.

She actually found me and she wasnt angry with me.
