"No! I don't wanna hear a damn thing you gotta say. You betrayed me!" I said as I snatched my arm away and stormed out without turning back. I got into my car and looked at the scratch in the mirror. As Monte trailed behind me, I quickly pulled out the parking lot and sped home. When I got home, the neighbor was outside on the porch again. He waved, but I couldn't find the strength to wave back and ran into the house before I completely broke down. As soon as I closed the door, I slid to the floor and cried my eyes out. About 5 minutes later, there was a knock on the door. I stayed where I was, thinking it was Monte outside. "Miss?" I heard from the other side of the door. I got up and tried to get myself together the best way I could at the moment and looked out the peep hole. It was the neighbor.

This is a story about a girl who just wants to get away from it all. The day she turns 18, she buys an apartment to get as far away from her abusive father that she possibly can. But was it really a good idea to move away? "What are you waiting for? Jump!" They were right, it's not like anyone's going to notice that I'm gone. "You're not scared, are you?" They snickered. I took one last breath, and glanced at the city, once more, before I would be closing my eyes forever.
