Chapter 22

Hailey walked up to Mark's work in tears. She walked through the front door out to the factory. She saw him working on a bike over in the corner. She started to walk over to him then stopped. No this isn't Mark's problem Hailey it's yours. She said to herself. She sighed and walked back out of the factory.

She headed back down the road towards the main street. She walked past a diner. Her stomach started to rumble. She looked in her pockets. She had enough money for a small meal but decided she didn't deserve it so kept walking.

It started to rain; there weren't many shops with shelter so she was mainly walking in the rain. She crossed her arms over her chest. The rain was cold and it didn't help with her wet hair clinging to her face. She looked at the clock in a near-by shop window, it was on 5'o clock and it was getting dark. She could just make out a bus shelter up ahead and she started to walk up to it.

She sat down at the bench there and took out 2 extra jumpers from her suit case, she put one on over the top of her other one she was wearing, and used the second jumper she had in her lap as a pillow for herself. She laid down on the cold bench shriving. She knew she could go to Mark but she didn't deserve his love or kindness. She was rubbing her stomach remembering how in health class the teacher was talking about homeless, pregnant teens. And now she was one of them. Tears rolled down her cheek as she thought about it. Very slowly she drifted off into an uneasy sleep.

The next morning Mark headed down the main street towards the mechanics. He was heading towards the bus shelter when he noticed a person lying asleep on the bench there. He could see they had blonde hair and looked familiar. Mark didn't like what he was seeing so walked a little faster towards them. He leaned down and noticed it was Hailey. He gasped in shock as he noticed her lips were blue. She must have been here all night, he thought. But why wouldn't have she came to me? He brushed her hair out of her face and cringed when he felt how cold her cheek was. Hailey stirred and opened her eyes slowly and noticed a man kneeling down looking at her. She quickly realized that this man was Mark and she quickly sat up. "Mark!" She gasped then moaned at the headache that was forming in her head. "Hailey please don't tell me you were here all night?" Mark said looking at her. Hailey quickly got up and started running away. "Hailey were are you going, what's wrong?" He called out to her. Hailey didn't answer, tears rolled down her cheeks as she ran around the corner.
