Chapter 1:
Setting: R.M.S Titanic
Rose sat quietly at the dinner table while all the people around her laughed and engaged in mindless chatter. She thought about how much she wanted to get up and run away right now. However, she knew that she could never do that. It would absolutely humiliate her mother and she would definitely get punished in some way.
The minutes seemed to go by as slowly as they could, making it even more torturous for Rose. Finally, dinner came to an end and the men were going to the smoking room to have cigars and brandy. The women would stay there to engage in more endless gossip. Cal got up and escorted Rose back to her room.
When she got to the room, Rose quietly went to her bedroom and sat down on the bed. She heard the door close. A tear rolled down her cheek. Another tear rolled down her other cheek. She thought to herself, "Why is my life so miserable?" Every day it was the same old people, with the same old gossip, and the same old snobby personalities. She decided that she had had enough of this. She needed to get away from all of this. NOW.
She got up quickly and ran out the door. She looked both ways to find a way out of the here. She turned to her right and sprinted out of the big hallway. She ran past the stewards and past the other people that were out for a walk. She pushed people aside as more tears rolled down her cheeks. She pushed the small gate open and ran to the stern of the ship. She grabbed onto the railing and looked down at the monstrous waves in the water. She slowly climbed over the railing to the other side of it. Now she was hanging off of the ship. She looked down once again and took a deep breath.
