Second Chance

Chapter twelve

I hear him curse
My name he calls
I press myself
Against the wall

Scarlett's POV

One month ago

The pressure I felt at that moment was to much,I couldn't believe I was finally going to do it. I did not want to think about the consequences all I knew was that I had to leave and go far away from here.

The condition I met my daughter in last week was my undoing.

"Scarlett are you sure you want to do this"San asks with a worried look on her face."You can just divorce him and you and Grace can stay with me."

Mason would never give me a divorce even if I threatened him with a knife,he would use Grace to make me stay and I did not want to depend on anybody.

"I want to start a new life with Grace somewhere else Sam if I ask him for a divorce,he would take Grace away from me and I can't leave Grace with him."she nods."I understand Scar but why aren't you leaving now,Mason is not around and he won't be back till next month this is your perfect chance."I wish it was that easy."It is not as easy as you make it seem Sam, even when he is not around he has people watching me,they report everything I do to him."Samantha braised her eyebrows."That guy is such a psycho,he even has people watching you."A sigh escapes my lips."How do you plan on leaving?"she asks."I am going to leave the day he is coming back,whenever he is coming home,he calls on the men and they leave,so I have only thirty minutes to leave before he gets home."she nods her head.

"That's brilliant Scar,but I am still worried about you,you have to be careful,you have to tell me if you need any help, do you know where you will go to?"she asks."I will go to my childhood home."That's is great"she exclaims."you will get to meet your parents."I cringe and I stare at her for a while but she raises her eyebrows clearly expecting a reply."I am not going to them Sam,I will find a place of my own and settle down there."

"Scarlett what are you saying from all the things you have told me I know your parents are rich,you should go to them."

Talking about my parents makes me remember the warning my mom gave me ,I wished I had listened to her then,I won't be living such a miserable life if I had listened.

"They disowned me Sam,i can't go to them they probably hate me now"Samantha looks at me with furrowed eyebrows."what are you saying Scar, your parents will be happy to see you."

"You don't know my mum,if she agrees on something she doesn't change my mind"

"Oh I wonder who else has that character"she says with a smile."I am going to miss you when you leave Scar,you have to call me everyday when you leave."

"I can't take my phone with me Sam,I don't want him to track it but the moment I get my hands on a phone,I will call you."she hugs me.

"Where are you going to get the money to leave?"she asks "I already have some money saved up and I started working in three places I will be able to save enough money to leave."she grins."you have this all figured out."we should probably make good use of the time we have left,what do you say about taking Grace to the park."She says smiling.

"Grace your aunt Sam and I want to take you to the park."I shout.Grace comes barreling down the stairs and she flings herself into Sam's hands, Samantha chuckles and rumples Grace's hair affectionately."Aunt Sam I missed you,I was watching tv so I didn't know you were here,you should have come this see me in my room."Sam laughs"I am sorry Scar,I had things to discuss with your mother."she pouts."Now let's go to the pack,you can get all the ice cream you want there."

Grace's laughter fills the air and I knew we probably wouldn't have the best life when we leave but anyplace we go is better than this hell. Grace deserved to be and I will do all I can do to make her happy.
