Chapter Two
Eggs, Bacon and Soap
Trying
not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one
could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong
here
So I pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway
Emma got off the train in Ronsville at 5 am. She wondered the streets for a good hour before going to a diner for breakfast. The waitress, a plump red headed woman named Molly walked over. "What'll it be, hun?"
"Egg and bacon please." Emma said. The waitress smiled.
"Coming right up." She walked into the kitchen and a few minutes later, emerged with a plate of eggs and bacon. "Run away?" she asked, setting the food down. Emma smiled and nodded. Molly walked away. This is so exciting! Starting out on my own! She put her laptop on the table and pulled up the train schedule. The next train leaves in two hours to Wasagga Beach. Then the train in Wasagga Beach could take her to Californa. She sighed and closed the schedule. She logged onto her mail and a news alert appeared on the tv.
"Emma Nelson from Toronto Canada has been reported missing. If you see this girl please call 555-5555. Thank you." The news woman said. They didn't show a picture. Sighing she looked back at her e-mail. One new message.
To: Emma
From: Chris
Hey, babe. What's up? I wanted to know if you wanted to hang this weekend. Call me. Luv- Chris.
It was from last night. Mom must know I'm gone now. She must be having a cow. Oh well. Next time I see her, I'll be 21. Molly brought her food to the table and Emma ate her breakfast.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Manny Santos climbed up the stairs of the Simpson-Nelson house hold and knocked on the door. Mr. Simpson answered at once.
"Hey Manny. Come in." He gesture for her to enter. "Thank you so much for taking your time for helping us find Em."
"No problem, Mr. Simpson. Paige, Spinner and I will find her if she's any where in Canada and in the US." Spike's cries came from the living room. "We'll find her soon."
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
By 9 o'clock, Emma was on the train to Wasagga Beach. She typed on her laptop of her adventures.
"EXCUSE ME! DO YOU HAVE ANY SOAP?!" a strange man yelled, scaring Emma. She jumped and looked up at him.
"Uhh....no." She said quietly. He went around asking people for soap. She shook her head and went back to her laptop. An IM popped up.
(A/N: I don't know their Screen names. Bare with me)
MannyS: Where are you?
EmmaN: None of your business.
MannyS: Your parents are worried speechless.
EmmaN: Pity.
MannyS: I'll find you. I promise that.
EmmaN: Good luck.
(EmmaN signed off)
Emma closed her laptop and tilted her head back. What could Manny possibly do? Sleep with a dectective to find her? She knew that she would have Spinner and Paige help her search all of Canada. Even the U.S too. The train drooned on and she listened to the rails creak as they went over a bridge.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Next stop Wasagga Beach." The train slowed to a stop and people filed off. Outside, Emma saw a peir and a mall. She walked towards the peir and looked over the water. She didn't notice some one gapping at her.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
