Falling Free

Augustine feels like god scooped up her life in his palm and flipped it upside-down.

Sure, she never had a home. Not really. But she thought... She knew... They would be the ones. They would keep her. She would finally have someone to lean on.
She would.
If they hadn't died.
Now Tina is left feeling alone once again, on her own in the world. She simply can't go back to that wretched orphanage, or another foster home that was just a big fake. And so, the 16 year-old girl does all she can really do. She runs away.
She finds herself in a suburban neighborhood with a rather nice aura. For a while, life is perfect. Tina is free, finally, after 16 long years of waiting.
But life has to catch up at some point, and living alone illegally is not as easy as it first seemed.

But with every struggle comes opportunity, and when Tina finally meets a 17 year old named Ace, they hate each other. The two are polar opposites, but as I have already said, with every struggle comes opportunity, and heaven knows what this opportunity is.
What will Tina do? Will she choose love or freedom?

Right now, I have no idea.

But for now, Augustine is falling free.
