Zosia's great escape
As Zosia got ready for bed she heard her brick phone buzz and she picked it up to look at the text, it was a girl at school called Sophia who had been bullying her. It read "ha Zosia you are such a nerd no one likes you and you are so stupid it's unbelievable so stop trying to be cool! Sophiaxx" Zosia had never felt so hurt in her life, she threw her phone at the wall she felt so angry, hurt and upset all at once. Zosia remembered her dad was downstairs because her mama was in hospital, she began to worry that he would come upstairs and ask her what's going on. She decided she could go to the hospital and spend the night with her mama; she got the directions from her computer and packed her back to go. She looked face to face at the window she knew what she had to do she opened the window and skilfully jumped from her window sill to the drainpipe and she slowly scampered down her feet now on solid ground. ...
Guy looked out the window of his living room to see what he thought he was imagining his 11 year old daughter outside in the dark this late; he got up instantly and rushed to get his coat and his shoes. He pulled open the door with great force to look for his missing daughter and slammed it shut.
Zosia was getting scared now, the rain was getting heavier and the map had gotten wet and she couldn't read it anymore. She couldn't turn back as she knew her dad would see her and her window had slammed shut on the way down, the cold was getting to her she could feel it in her bones "ugh I knew I should have worn a coat." Suddenly someone grabbed her, she was so shaken she had never been so scared until she heard the person speak "Zoshie what were you thinking" the deep and stern voice made her tense muscles relax, she knew she was safe.
Guy walked Zosia back to their house. What was she thinking running of like that, is she crazy, does she have a death wish or something. Different thoughts raced through Guy s mind she watched Zosia run the stairs as fast as her legs could take her, before she made it to the top guy bellowed "where do you think you re going young lady, living room, NOW"
Zosia didn't know what to do she could them him or she couldn't I mean he is her father he wouldn't judge her, and then again wouldn't it be better to talk to mama first. Zosia thought as she solemnly walked down the stairs not daring to make eye contact with her father.
"Zosia even at this age you know it's not safe outside and now I find you've snuck out or runaway or whatever it was you were doing, you could have been murdered and I don't think your mother would very happy when she hears about this." "No dad" Guy gave Zosia a lecture about safety for the 100th time. "Why Zosia, why did you do this to me why." Guy yelled losing his temper at the young lady "I WANTED TO BE WITH MAMA THAT'S WHY OKAY." guy was shocked Zosia had spoken like this he knew she had a short temper ever since she was younger, but never like this ...
Zosia knew if there any time to tell him it was now "this girl is cyber bullying me and I wanted mama's help to sort this out, okay are you happy now." "Darling you know that if you ever need help I will always be there for you." Her dad stated " I know dad I just wanted to talk to mama that all. I'm sorry I yelled at you, I just miss her being home." I know sweetheart it's hard for me to, I'll tell you what how about I report what happen to your school tomorrow morning and then we can go see mama when you finish school okay." "Okay." Zosia felt relieved that dad wasn't mad and that this was getting sorted out. "Thank you, dad for helping me and everything else." "What can I say you re my little girl there is nothing I wouldn't do for you." Zosia walked out the door and headed to her room but... She had forgotten something Zosh ran back down and swiped her dad with a surprise hug "Dad, I love you."
