Darkness envelops me with the sound of a slamming trunk. The engine starts, and I wonder if my luck will be any different.
I never have that kind of luck. Who am I kidding?
I fall asleep to the sound of the shovel beside me tapping the wall by my head. Waking up to the sound of wind blowing over my head and a sharp pain in my side. A sharp rock stabs my gut and dirt gets in my eye as I sit up.
Where am I?
I’m alive, that’s all I can say. Any clue to where I could be is hidden by the stone walls that surround me. The gray concrete hiding any roads or the buildings that would otherwise be visible. The sun is shining and a lone cloud floats in the blue skies.
At least she was honest with me. She has always trusted me…it should be no surprise she would keep her promise.
Standing up takes more effort than I expected, but I manage. Leaning on a wall to balance myself, I watch the skies for a sign of life. A bird or plane to fly overhead, a butterfly or lizard to sit on the wall. The roar of a car engine to surprise my vigil. It never comes, and I’m soon bored.
There must be some way to get out of here. She wouldn’t just leave me here to die.
I check my pocket in case she left me a phone. Of course not. But there is a piece of paper in a back pocket. A black necktie that she writes on in a small, neat cursive, “I know you’ll figure out how to dig yourself out!” and attached a crisp one-hundred-dollar bill to the other side.
Why am I not surprised? But what does she expect
The gravel path crunches below my feet like broken glass. Maybe my childhood was not perfect at all. The morning fog starts rolling in, clouding my vision. The happy memories start fading away, I remember what it really was like. The screaming, shouting and the suffocating stench of cheap alcohol.
Sweat drips down my face as I pull the wire cutter closer and closer to the red wire and then BOOM. I fell of my bad to the dirty but soft rug scrambling to my feet I hear the buzzing of my alarm clock. I swear to myself as I hurry and put on my clothes, I scramble out my door to run to the bus. Feeling the cold asphalt beneath my feet i jump on the bus just in time, when i realize my shoes weren't on. Hear the laughter of everyone and I try to hide them but as I'm walking down the row the driver steps on the pedal so hard it flew me to the cold steel back seat I got knocked out. I wake up in the nurse's office I hear the tender voice saying “are you ok?” I get up to my feet and tell her I'm fine and I run to my class. Going from the office
At six a.m. I tumbled out of bed at the sudden sound of my alarm clock. I’m never ready for it when it happens. I rolled off the bed, hitting the floor and as I steadily got up to
I’m surprised and confused, I want to make things right with her desperately, but I’m not sure what I did wrong in the first place. The bell rings and she leaves the room faster than anyone else, leaving me behind to wonder what it is that I’ve done to make her this
Eventually she looked up from the phone and asked us why we were there, so we told her the whole
Get out now. Dial her number. Listen while it rings. Hear her voice. Say …
“Uh, yeah! Sure!” When I knew I was l alone I ran all over town looking for the source of the snow. I finally found it at an abandoned warehouse just outside of town. I waited a couple of seconds before saying something but before I could, someone spoke.
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, when I couldn’t sleep, I would get out of bed and wander around the house. On those nights I was more dead than ever—not even half-awake, half-conscious. Sometimes I would wander outside, and look at the
I stumble to the side, my back against the wall with nowhere to go. We’re in a giant round room with high ceilings. I don’t even see a door. There’s nowhere for me to go.
Slowly, I began to observe my surroundings, struggling to remember how I ended up here. My surroundings, gloomy and unpleasant engulfed me in darkness as rays of dim light emerged through the gaps between the old stone buildings that concealed me. I rose unsteadily to my feet
The sound of my alarm clock screaming woke me up, much to my demise. I released a groan and rolled over in my bed, laying on my back and staring up at the plain white ceiling. I blinked a couple of times as clearing some of the sleep in my eyes and trying to grab some energy to move.
Soon, the car doors both open and air as cold as the lights lining the
I walk to my bed and flop onto the sheets. My hair in my eyes, and Mt face in the cold pillow. Wow hard to breathe. I lift my head off the pillow, and turn it to look at the clock.
One day, in a small town, there was a girl named Jenny who lived with her mom and dad in a small house. Their family made average, but Jenny’s mother owned a business that isn’t doing so well. Their family was slowly losing money and was scared. She was doing her homework when her mom came in her room and said,”Hey, can you go to the store and collect some things for the house?” She got out her wallet and took out the only cash she had, five dollars.”This should be enough”.
It was one of those really really hot Fridays. One of those days that when you bring some cold ice-cream outside it would melt instantly right in your hand. You could walk around and become a red tomato as a consequence for not putting on sunscreen. It was one of these days that Logan was kicked out of his house.
