Summary: Just a story about a girl with a hard life but still tries her hardest to stay strong.
Based on: nothing, my characters... (it's not Gaia!) :lol:
Chapter 1:
The rain splattered over her head and lightly sprayed her body as she raced through the shadows of night. Her legs were pumping, almost too fast for her brain, in a rhythmic beat. Her body hurtled past house after house, which were only a blur in her vision. Every step she gained, she felt a tiny bit of relaxation run through her. Every house she whipped by, bit by bit, the problems faded away in back of her. She ran and ran until she was in her own zone. Where she only concentrated on getting by- getting by life and its daily horrors. Even though her breath was becoming rugged, she sucked in all the air her lungs could hold and then let it out. Let it all out. Let out all the felgercarb she had to deal with at school, at work, and most of all at home.
Sometimes she wished she knew what her mother was like. Other times, she could care less because of all the horrible things she had done. Her mother was a hard core drug addict. She started off with marijuana and then got into speed, cocaine and heroine. Heroine was what got her dead. But what had gotten her into it? Two months after having Atari, her mother died and from then on her father took care of her. More like abused her. He owned a strip club and was a screwed up drunk. If he was mad, he would take it out on Atari and do other things that would make people’s skin crawl. But things were different now. She was eighteen and she had experienced what most people went through in a lifetime. People always think that life is a balance of good and bad. Atari’s was just plain bad.
She slowed down a few notches and slowly jogged across the bridge right in the middle of the forest. This was the only place in town that Atari would consider beautiful. The small river under was glittering in the darkness and the mini waves lapped softly against each other. She stared at the sight and sighed- wishing she could stay here the whole night. Well she probably could since it’s not like her dad would notice.
Then suddenly, a form caught at the corner of her eye. It’s probably just an animal or something. She squinted and searched for it again only because of curiosity. She took a step closer but it didn’t help. It was too dark out. Yeah, it’s just an animal.
At that moment, the form moved.
