Tap tap Tap......
Shivers run down my spine as I sit in the cold in the dark alone. I only hear cars passing by ever now and than.
I'm sitting here yet again waiting for yet another bus ,this is third bus I missed today and doubts about if I should leave or stay still roam my mind . But tears can't help but flow down my faces as I get flashbacks ,of the events that spiraled earlier today. I rub the bruise on lip as I think to myself , why can't anything good come my way . I close my and prayed to god I made this bus , or I would have no choice but go back and home with papa . I would do anything to stay away from him. But the more I push forward the more I get pushed backwards.
I have know way of knowing what time it is . As the only thing I have on me is the clothes on my back and shoes on my feet. I clench my faces as think how I will escape this never ending cycle of pain . I cry and cry as I know I missed the last bus, I have no choice but go home before papa gets there or the be grave consequences. I'm too scared to move or even think about what he would do to me if he found out that I wasn't home. "No Yulie he probably out getting drink at the pub." I breathe in one more time as hear a screeching noise .Whoosh ... As the doors of bus 113 plopped open.
I was greeted warmly by an old man.
"What are doing out here in this type of weather." He said .....I stood their holding my hands tightly."Get inside young lady before you catch a cold"
"yes sir " I trembled at thought of freedom.
As I reach in my pocket for the bus fee, I realized that the money I had was soaked, tears flowed down my face as I sobbed in fear.
"What's wrong sweetie " he smiled again
"I'm sorry sir but the money I have is wet and I don't he anymore money to use it but I really have to get on this bus"
I felt he'll turn me away as I look down at coin machine and back at him. He looks as if he can feel my pain , he shook his head and smiled ."I understand go take a seat in the back and it be ok this time don't even worry . "As I walk to the back of the bus , a sense of relief washed over me .I lend my head against the bus window as he began to drive away , he soon soon pass the by Hillcrow greeting sign population 367 well now 366 because I don't plan on ever coming back here again .
As I close my eyes I been again to cry silently as I don't know what to expect next or where to go . All I know is that I can finally rest easy as I'm far away from papa now .(Hey Guys !!!
