Unknown Fate: Chapter 1
"It's for the best, hunny." My mom tried to convince me.
I just looked at her with narrowed eyes. "It can't possibly be for the best, mom," I whispered.
She sighed, "Bella, he has . . . changed."
"No he hasn't." I said, not wanting to give in. "Besides, I haven't seen him for eleven years."
"So, you couldn't possibly know if he's still the same." She fought back.
"What if he is?" I asked, "What if I get there, and he beats me? Then what?" I asked.
"He won't," She re-assured me. "And if he does, dial 9-1-1, and then call my cell."
I held in my breath. So that's it? We would go with the flow? We would see how my father was.
First let me introduce myself.
My name is Isabella Swan, Bella for short. When my mother, Renee, met my dad, Charlie, they fell in love. After only two months of dating, they decided to get married. My father was 26 my mother was only 18. They had me and everything changed. My dad started to abuse my mom both physically and sexually. When I turned roughly five years of age, my dad would push me around, he would hit me and call me names. My mom couldn't do anything because her family threw her out of the house when she got married. After a year of tourturing me, my mom left my father. And I haven't seen him since.
I am now seventeen years old, my mother met another person, Phil, and my mom was sending me to my father. My mom said that my dad went to "Rehab" but in my heart I knew he was the same.
So here we were driving to the airport.
I lived in New York with my mother and Phil. And I was off to Forks, Washington.
"I'll miss you, Bella." My mom janked me out of my day dream - nightmare.
I looked out the window. The airport. Tears started to form around my eyes.
"Mom, please, I could rent my own place . . . " I begged.
"Bella, you're underage. It'll only be for a while."
"Bye, mom." I said hugging her, not wanting to get out of the car.
"Good bye, Bella. I'll miss you." She said kissing my forehead.
And with those words, I got off the car and into the airport.
Not knowing my fate.
