Perhaps today was a very unlucky day for me, a simple situation of being in the wrong time and the wrong place. That or I have either failed to realise how crime-filled Gotham city is or how sheltered I've been living my whole life.
-{Flashback: Four hours ago}-
I looked at my ashamed mother as she walked into the kitchen hiding her disappointment in me, why isn't she supporting me? I looked into my dad's eyes for support, I shouldn't have.
"Darling, he is your teacher and he's married!" 'Where are they? I know he's married...'
"But he loves me! He said he'll divorce his wife!" 'Please dad...'
"How can you be so naive? To him you are just a toy!"'A toy! I'm your daughter...'
"How can you say that? You don't understand him like I do!"
"We don't need to, we are your parents! Look, we've made up our minds sending you to Australia to study. Hasn't this been what you've wanted?" 'No, that's not I want from you...'
"I won't leave him if that's what you've been implying!"
"Why are you so stupid?" 'How can you say that to your own daughter?'
"It runs in the family dad."

I couldn't look at him anymore so I chose to run away. It was true, I know Mr. Adam is a married man but I was the one that fell in love with him. He was the one that responded to my confession. He's my first love and my only love...
So why am I feeling scared? Walking in the streets of Gotham at night was so different, why did everything look so much scarier? I heard some clattering noise and immediately reacted. I needed to get to his house.

The door opened slowly, the sense of being in his arms again and making me feel safe came into my head. His hands ran up his hair as he opened the door, my heart began to warm...
Until I heard 'her' voice...
"Darling, who is it?"
"Probably the pizza-guy honey."
I looked at his face as he turned to my direction at the door. Why was his wife still there?
"James..."
"I'm sorry Natalie, this isn't the best time."
"I got kicked out." 'A fight with my parents because of you, while you are happily with your wife...'
"Look sweetie, I can't let you in...she's inside. We'll talk about this tomorrow at school okay?"
'What about me then? I'm homeless...I have nowhere else to go.'
"Darling...The one inside me isn't going to be fed magically!" 'What!'
"You'll have to wait a little longer, it isn't the pizza-guy...just a stranger."
SLAM

Why didn't I listen to my dad? Why has it come to this? He won't ever leave her will he? That woman has his child. I can't separate a family...
He didn't even love me...he didn't even let me in...
Where can I go now?
