It was a very sore Meg, that entered the Griffin household. A smile across her face regardless of her exhaustion and the aches that filled her body. She had been working now for a full month at the hotel, as well as working out and basically telling everyone to screw it. A whole month... And no one asked her what was going on bar Brian. Only the dog, the useless mooch that he was, Asked her what was going on. Only he actually bothered to care enough to actually question her. Not even her school try to do anything about it, though perhaps that had the fact that Neil just finally got out of the hospital.

Everyone left her alone, even Connie D'Amico, for all of her b* left her alone. It was cathartic to be perfectly honest though very lonely. Still Meg was proud of herself. Thanks to her new job she had made about $1,500 and had managed to store it all the way in a bank account she had set up ensure that her parents would never find so much of a dime of it. She was very very proud of that, however it's still brought upon her a deep-seated kind of worried. She knew full well that her happiness is fragile, that her family could destroy it in a mere moment. This frustrated her in a way that nothing else did and she was dying to find a way to circumvent any such situation.

"Where is it... Oh there it is!" On the paper, as it always was, was in the kitchen on top of their refrigerator. Her father, dumb as he was, couldn't really read the paper so her mother tended to put the real paper on top of this refrigerator for coupons and such, giving Peter a fake paper shut him through the paper as fast as she could Meg found exactly what she was looking for. ''perfect okay let's take this upstairs"

Satisfied, Meg hurried upstairs, caring hurt newspaper into her room but she quickly flopped onto the bed. A red pen quickly found its way into her hand or she used it to start circling interesting homes and advertisements that she knew it would come in handy.

"Two bedrooms, one bath, decent size kitchen, wood flooring, $750 a month..." Frowning Meg turns the next advertisement. "Three bedrooms, one bath, decent-sized kitchen, linoleum floors, $800 a month. Damn why are they so expensive."

Groaning a little, Meg pulled out her phone and started to look up different apartments find quickly found three apartments that look decent. Two stood out though, much to her irritation. in both cases they were two bedroom apartments right near stewie's School.

It burned her, it agonized her. She loved Stewie no matter how much she wanted to say otherwise. Should always love Stewie, Stewie was pure and innocent. Unlike everybody else with all of their faults he was genuinely good person or at least he could be. She never blamed him and could never blame him for the crap he did sometimes. He sometimes acted like a monster like the rest of her family because it's all he knew. But she also knew that like her he could change and become better. It was too late for Chris oh, there was too much bad blood there. Every time she looked at a house or saw a baby at the hotel she worked at or literally did anything she saw Stewie's face. The guilt of the idea of leaving him it killed her. And so, she considered though barely oh, that she could always might take him with her.

'it's not like Louis with care about him, or even really miss him. Stewie is more of a trophy for her I guess. but some of the crap that she's done already, like a freaking concussion of his where everyone even myself did everything to hide the fact that so we might actually die. I can't really blame Chris or myself I'm a look at our examples their parents yep they f* up'

Shrugging it off knowing that there was really little she could do about it, and there was little chance she coule actually take Stewie, she turned back the last apartment the one that she can live in all by herself. It seems to be a nice apartment actually, it wasn't very large, and it wasn't that far from where she worked. About a 20-minute walk or so she guessed.

"Is it a good time though, I mean I am graduating about 3 months. Is it really worth it to get an apartment like that now." Biting her lip she quickly change the address on the apartment website she found, and tell a nicer apartment in a different town far away from here appeared. It was a nice town a place in California where are School she was honestly interested in stood proud. I smirk crossed her face, she knew she could do it. She actually been a doctor before, was a gifted writer as proved by the article and poem that Chris from her,she'd worked for Mayor West,she had been a part of the school newspaper for years, and she was a gifted musician according to Lisa. She had faith in herself that regardless of what she did she would succeed. This college might just be her first and only chance.

Medical journalism seemed like a perfect choice for her. She knew she knew that she would be amazing. The application process to the school that she wanted to go to, Edwin's Bay college, small but very reputable college but decent tuition fees she actually in her grasp.

Satisfied with her search make locks her phone and started to shed her clothes, getting ready to work out. actually she looked in the mirror and could not help the smile she that came across your face. She was never going to be a great beauty, she knew this she looks way too much like her father. However thanks to working out, eating better and actually being happy Meg was no longer butt ugly. She could honestly say now that she was just shy of a 7 out of 10 in terms of attractiveness. Her body was well-muscled, her old Muffin top was almost non-existent, her calves (which she never really paid attention to before) we're ripped and perfectly shaped. Her face which is always been around now how to decently angled and it showed that she actually had nice cheekbones like her mother that have been hidden for years behind a layer fat. She was pretty impressed what a mere month of working out had done to her. Of course really it wasn't just working out, it was so much more than that. It was being happy, it was sleeping better, it was having confidence, it was having more sunlight on a daily basis oh, it was having a reason to be alive and actually wanting to breathe again. She felt amazing and she was pretty sure that anybody who had a brain, basically anyone that was did not live in quahog, would appreciate that she actually was a far cry from ugly.

Absently she brushed the top of her head looking at her hair and wondering what color and haircut would make her hair and her face look even better. She had seen a girl the day before with red hair like neon looked wonderful though she doubted the school should go to and let her have it. So her school had no policy against haircuts that were fancy or colors that weird unnatural. It would be kind of nice to start dying her hair now so that later she could cut it and look professional.

Done with admiring herself make quickly grabbed her pull-up bar and started working out she already job earlier that day and was ready to start the rest.

Stewie was not stupid, quite the opposite in fact, so it baffled him still to see that nobody noticed Meg's changes. Make it always confused Stewie, sometimes he absolutely loved her and want to do everything he could to defend her from their family, but other times he kind of feel like he had to be mean to her like everyone else was like they'd get mad at him if he wasn't. It was confusing for Stewie, smart or not he was still a baby.

"Good morning Stewie," Stewie's head whip to the side where he saw the Meg for the first time in a few days. It was a weekend when the very few times he actually got to see her. She look beautiful to him or well less ugly than she used to be. Her one thing stuck out to him, she seemed happy "How you doing handsome? Now give your big sister a hug, I'm going to take you out for some breakfast, does that sound fun?"

Frowning his sleepy eyes at her a little at her for just a moment Stewie decided that he was actually kind of excited. Quickly he got dressed, with her help naturally, and hurried down the stairs as fast as he could safely do with her. Much to his surprise she tossed him right on her shoulders, making him Uber excited on their way to have some breakfast.

Walking itself was nice, Meg didn't say a whole lot, but she was happy and laughed and giggled at all the stuff he said. Stewie rarely felt really important , the fat man was too drunk to care most of the time, Lois was either drunk, high or too vain to really notice anything of actual value about him, Brian was really willing to give him up for any kind of girl or anything like that, and Chris was... Well Chris was Chris.

The diner itself is really nice, Stewie got his own coloring book and actually clean booster seat. He was really excited even as Meg sorry to make their order real quick, getting herself some coffee and some vanilla creamer. She smiled at him and started to make small talk, it was weird for silly because she knew that most people couldn't understand him. Still he appreciated the gesture.

"Oh Meg, you're such a hoot" Stewie giggled at his sister. "I can't remember the last time I have this much fun. The fat man never takes me out to eat, and Lois only doesn't show she can flirt with other married black men!"

Suddenly Meg's and entire expression changed. "I love you Stewie... I'll always love you Stewie. I wanted to take you with me, when I left but... I'll never be able to do that. They won't let me. This town has proven mobile times that Justice and Care joke. Nobody here really cares about it corruption is everywhere and everyone. I hope story that you have a good life despite everything. If I ever get the chance to take you in my custody I will..."

Stewie was horrified looking at his sister with deep on abiding grief. But before you could so much as open his mouth, large platter of pancakes were placed in front of Stewie and Meg med chop them up into small pieces, placing them on his plate with a nice drizzle of boysenberry syrup. all excited and giggling so we quickly started to Chow down his food taking sips of his chocolate milk every so often.

Meg look at his little brother amazed by his beauty or well his cuteness. It was amazing how much she loved him, despite everything she been put through she still saw Stewie as it did nothing more than a beautiful baby who deserve all of the beautiful things the world has to offer. She saw herself, she saw what she once was. He was the Innocence destroyed by her family before she turned three years old.

Far from religious anymore, Meg prayed to herself and any Diety that may be listening. Praying for freedom from the future she knew Stewie would be doomed to live.

Unappreciated, Unloved, miserable. The Griffin special.

After 20 minutes of eating Stewie, curious and worried, looked at his older sister. He saw her sad a lot but this was different. This was more final.

This wasn't a Meg wanted to hurt yourself oh, this is a Meg saying goodbye. He wasn't sure which version of make scared him more.

And then she distracted them once again tickling his stomach lightly kissing him on the cheek and whispering in his ear.

"Stewie want to go to the park?"

all other thoughts erased Stewie practically shot at the seat and drug all the way the park.

...

"Are these plane tickets?"

Horrified, Brian collected himself long enough to look back on to Meg's computer. She had never erased her browser history, something she really should have, cuz it made it completely easy to backtrack all of her steps. It was obvious to Brian what was going to happen. It made him glad he overheard Meg talking to herself the night before.

"Meg is leaving... Meg is leaving the day she graduates."

knowing you had to say something, Brian got off of his seat or well Meg's seat and hurry down to Lois.

"Lois, Lois you have to see this."

A little drunk or maybe high, Brian wasn't completely sure at the moment, Lois nodded and follow him unsteady steps all the way up the stairs into Meg's room.

"She's leaving Lois, she's leaving everybody. I found an apartment complex on her computer, airplane tickets that have already been paid for, an application for a school that's almost complete, a completed FASFA form, an online banking statement that says she has almost $10,000 in her bank account but the most recent transaction being yesterday for a total of $400. She's leaving us, she will agree gone the day she graduates."

Lois faked moment of genuine horror. "Oh no my baby, my poor baby!" Look horrified at Bryan. "Why would she do this to us? Why would my baby try to leave us? Brian what are we going to do?"

Barely restraining the urge to roll his eyes, despite his love of Lois, Brian pulled out of cell phone.

"We need to call Peter we need to get this done with."

...
