Ecaping
Chapter 1
Today was horrible, like everyday of my life since I went to school. As I walked to school eyes were staring at me like I was an alien. It was so silent that if a pin dropped it would be heard from a mile away. I did the daily routine; eyes up, confident stride and tilt my head every couple seconds. The fake me… the shell everyone wants and expects from a model’s daughter. Perfection. Oh, but don’t take pity on me- it has been like this for as far as I can remember, after a while you get used to it. My name is Scarlet… Scarlet Foster . Yes I know you are probably thinking no she can’t be but, yes I am the daughter of the famous actress and model- Sapphire Foster.
The day was still going and it (like everyday) was a pain to sit through those long hours of the teacher sounding like the Charlie Brown voices mwah wahwahweewah…. until the teacher calls on you.
“And what is the answer to the equation, Miss Foster?” said Mrs. Carter.
“Wait, what…” I said I thought it might be better to guess, here goes nothing. “Fou..thr..five..TWO that’s it, it’s two.”I said.
My teacher looked back at me with disappointment
” No, Ms Foster Its 5, 40 divided by 8.”
I felt my cheeks turn crimson red as every pair of eyes turned toward me at that moment. The majority had disappointment in their eyes like they expected more from me, like they could even judge me like that. They aren’t my mom.
The next second everything happens in a blur.I ran out the door into the hallway and then out of school. I was Reckless. But I didn’t care. I ran straight ahead not knowing where I was going. Then it happened. I ran straight into someone and before I could react quickly enough, my head hit the concrete and the world went black.
chapter 2
As I opened my eyes everything was blurry. I felt vulnerable and disoriented. My head felt like it was in a vise and it kept turning squeezing my head… hard. Then I remembered what happened, I was running out of school when I ran into someone and hit my head on the floor. But the strange thing is that I don’t feel concrete, I feel my fluffy tempurpedic bed and my plush donut. I notice a shadow in the corner of my eye and realize that I am not alone. with a jolt i spring onto my feet and almost fall off my bed.
“Please don’t be scared, I don’t wish to hurt you” said the boy
“ what do you want then?” I said, hating myself for letting my voice come out in a squeek,.. I had to be strong, not weak.
I noticed that the boy had blond hair and caramel colored skin. His eyes were a deep cerulean that was a surprising color. He was wearing jeans and a shirt that said I am awesome and you know it. As i turn my attention to him i look in the mirror … I drew in my next breath sharply because what I had seen was my skin was covered with scratches and cuts. The normal for me was tan flawless skin and chocolate Brown hair in ringlets down to my waist with an red ombre at the ends. Now my hair was a tangled mess. I know…I know i should not be thinking about how i look, but i never would have ever pictured myself like this. I always had high cheekbones and Shamrock green eyes. My lips were a crimson red. As I looked at my dress i realized that it was my kettle corn red dress made by Emily and Fin co.
“I am terribly sorry that I knocked you down Ms Foster I was turning the corner and you were running you came out of nowhere I…a…I am sorry by the way my name is conner”
“Its okay,” I said lets hope my brother doesn’t find out or this won’t end well.
Chapter 3
I heard knock on the door as i stood up the blood rushed to my head and i grabbed the nearest thing next to me which happens to be conner
“Are you okay?” he asked
Yeah i’m fine, I take gymnastics happens all the time.” I said trying to lighten the mood but it just made us uncomfortable, why can’t I keep my mouth shut!
Then my butler(Mr.Henry) came into the room he started to fumble over his words .
“Mr.Henry calm down what is it?!?!?!?!”
“She is here.” My heart started to pound with disbelief,.. She couldn’t be here she told me…. .But my curiosity drove me forward.
“Who is “she”.” Said conner
Oh, right, he’s here, I honestly forgot from shock.
“You will find out,.. Later” I said to him.
I ran out of my room into the hallway and to the door. I stopped when i heard voices in the living room going on about something that Sapphire (my mother)said.
“She can’t do, She will never hold up the family name,.. she is not good enough.”
When i heard that my insides turned to ice. I felt like I had been punched in the stomach. I held in a cry,..I knew this was coming,I knew that somebody was going to say it ,I knew he would say it but i still was not prepared,my step dad.
Chapter 4
As i crept around the corner I saw my mother and him, his name is Asher. I was going to listen but i couldn’t she was at the door. I walked to the door and heard someone say
“Hello anyone home “ I had heard that voice before
“Who is it” I said
“Who’s asking” she said
“Scarlet. Who is this?” I said, I was playing that game,like I don’t know her.
“Oh Scarlet, it is you!” she said
“Tat” I guess
“Yeah! I need your help. Can I come in?”
Why would she ask me that she is like a sister to and she knew that I thought.
“of course” I said Tat’s real name was Tatalina Sincero. She had hickory colored hair and alabaster skin. Her eyes were a admiral blue with little tiny canary colored flecks. She was tall and skinny. when we were little she would always grab the ball and hold it over my head when we played with her dog.
“What’s wrong Tat.” I said when I looked into her eyes I saw that deep down she was troubled with something. As I walked with her to my kitchen to grab some food she poured her heart out to me. In the end what had happened to her was that she had wanted to escape to come hang out with me but she couldn’t so she escaped and put someone in her place but when she went back they called her an imposter and the girl took her place.
I decided that we would go out and have fun to get her mind (and mine) off of problems and just enjoy life we went to the nutcracker and went to see birdman in a private theater and had a good time,But we all knew it was not infinite.The boy Conner was nowhere to be seen when we got home and it is still a mystery where he went. We sat on the roof of of the mansion, we hung out their for a while and talked ,eventually we fell asleep.
Chapter 5
When we had woke up ,I had made her tea, I thought everything was good but no, it would never be the same , in the afternoon Tat left after I had helped her with the plan. I would most likely never see her again, because of my new decision,…
I was going to run away.
End of book
I am really proud of this piece because I feel that I worked really hard on it and since i enjoyed it I would love to do it again.
