#38-Abandoned
She was fifteen when she learned the true meaning of being abandoned. One moment she had a family, and the next moment she didn't. She remembered the mixture of emotions that flooded through her when she figured it out. Anger, that her parents would do that to her. Fear, about what would happen next. She was hurt, wondering why they would just leave her, wondering if it was her fault that they left. Did she do something wrong? That led to guilt. Disappointment. She had always counted on her parents, and they had let her down. Frustration, that she couldn't do anything to help solve the problem. Each emotion would slowly build up, hit full force, and then fade away as the next one began to sweep over her. After she thought that she had experienced every human emotion possible in less than twenty four hours, she was left with a sense of emptiness. That's what abandonment meant to her now- exhaustion, loneliness, and feeling totally and completely empty.
