This is a short story for a school assignment that I submitted, to which I received the second highest mark in my year level and the year level above me (not trying to brag hahaha). It is a creative response to author Alice Munro's short story, 'Runaway.' I really enjoyed this project and was very much inspired by Munro's beautiful writing style.
While I aimed to make the underlying theme of my story easy to grasp, if you would like some more context I strongly recommend reading Munro's narrative 'Runaway.'
I hope you enjoy reading my work! :)

Part 2: Mine (Completed✔)
"Well, well, well. Guess who's back? But what takes you too long, I've missed you already." "You're a monster!" "I did all of this for you, but they ruined it! I just want us to have a happy life." "This is not what I want! I can't believe I married a man who's an evil!" Alexander laughed so hard "What's funny?!" "I mean look at your mother, she's about to die I guess" He said and pointed to my mom who's in the main door, gasping for air. Avianna walked towards her mom, "Mom, i'm sorry". "I-t's n-not your fau-ult" "Mom, please don't leave me. I need you and dad in my life. Hang in there I'm calling an ambulance. Please mom" "Uh uh uh, baby nope." he said and grabbed her phone "Please I'm begging you!" "Aw, stop crying baby. It hurts me to see you like this" He caressed her cheeks and kissed her forehead. "Okay boys, call Dr. Gabe" "Wait, where's my dad?" "He run away." Avianna sighed in relief for her father is safe, she then looked at her mom again. "Mom, everything will be alright." "You think?" She looked at him in disbelief when he pointed the gun to her mom. Again.

Creative Writing Class
I wrote this for my Creative Writing Class (Well, Professional Writing) and submitted it to the Literary Magazine at HindsCC. It's a little on the dark side, but I'm pretty proud of this story. Hope you all like it!(: Suggested rape and abuse. All Rights Reserved. This is MY original work that I worked extremely hard on. I'd prefer if no one tries to copy this! Please, do NOT take my stories. I've worked extremely hard on these and can prove that these are MINE. If you use the idea, i don't care but PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS STORY LINE! I have plenty of people that can back me up on this one. This is my OWN ORIGINAL WORK.Concluída

Suicidal
This is the story of an abused teenage girl, Maddie. Her need to die has become overwhelming and she is trying to find a way to help herself before she does something she may regret. The story is told from her point of view as she recalls all that has happened to her. Maybe telling her story will help her, maybe not. This isn't just any other sob story. This is more realistic. You may even find yourself comparing your life to Maddie's while reading this story. Disclosure: I wrote this as a 13-year-old and the writing is definitely not up to my current standards, but I feel as though changing what I have already written would take away from the emotion I put into this story at 13 years old. If you'd like an updated and more well-written version, please read my other story entitled "Remembering". TW/CW: domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideationConcluída
I Run To You
"I just ran away like I was possessed or something". Carson had a troubled face, but the description was accurate. Something inside her had stirred and urged her forward, away from her home, and she had left. Greta knew what it felt like to be possessed by all those feelings, she knew what it felt like to run, not away, but towards those feelings. "I don't think you are running away from anything, I think you're running towards your destiny". Greta and Carson could be good running partners. They wanted more. Greta knew so, Carson was finding it out. Together they could just run. Run towards each other, and towards their feelings. Run towards their destiny. Towards a brand new time. Towards a brand new world. ... A gretson epilogue to A League Of Their Own Season 1. p.s. this was also posted by me on ao3.Concluída
Glass Heart
Just a short story I wrote and am very proud of, TWs include mental illness, death of family, teen pregnancy (breif mentions), neglect, toxic home life, suicide, depression, self harm, running away, self-loathing, breaking mirrors and the recovery process of mental illness. List of help lines if needed: https://checkpointorg.com/global/ (btw there's so much symbolism it would make my English teacher proud and the writing style is also strange at best, good luck)Concluída
Hope
Kate was used to dealing with unfair consequences. Having a less than ideal home life and no one else to support her, she had learned to deal with things on her own. She had learned not to feel and especially not to hope. So when someone new comes into her life Kate does the best thing she can think of, she shuts them out. But, after a series of events in the course of one day, they are thrown back together, and Kate is given the chance to explain herself. Explain why she was so guarded and why she had closed herself off in the first place. And maybe along the way Kate learns that things aren't always so bad. That feeling and hoping aren't the worst things in the world. ***Warning: Mention of abuse is included in this story. Please don't read if that is a trigger for you in any way. Hope you enjoy the story. Feel free to leave comments and/or suggestions, I'm open to whatever.Concluída![Gone [UNDER MAJOR EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/75736596-256-k535112.jpg)

Everything is going great for this runaway when she meets a sweet guy named Damion, but everyone knows freedom comes with a price.Concluída
