Second Chance
Grabbing the closest paper I could find I scribbled a note. Mom, I'm not gonna let Sam get away like you let Dad leave. You've become a maniac because you gave up on finding him. I wont give up.- Fredward
Feeling my feet hit the pavement I looked up to see eight stories above me the wide open window. Afraid of what my mother would say if she knew, I almost contemplated returning. Sam was more important. I turned around just in time to take the bus to the nearest substation. Where could Sam be? I was asked the kiosk workers if they'd seen her and was coming up empty. The old man who sold candy, said he sees to many faces to recognize anyone in particular. The young women who peddles her beauty products said that shes just a face in the crowd. The man selling newspaper, said he hadn't seen her. I'd asked everyone I could. I sat on the bench, hoping she'd walk past any moment. There was a janitor that came out of the ladies restroom. "Excuse me. I'm looking for my friend. Have you seen her?" I asked showing the janitor the picture.
"Yeah I've seen her. Left about 10 minutes ago. She was sick and was blaming the beef jerky."
"Did she say where she was going! Did you see where she went?" It came out as a jumble of 1 sentence.
"Slow down kid. She got on the subway that was lets off at the train station. Said something about Vancouver."
I shrieked a hysterical laugh, as I kissed the lady on the head and ran to get above ground. A taxi would get me there in enough time I hoped.

"Tell my mother,
Tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying...
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance" Sam sung along to her pearpod. The Subway coming to a stop she saw the cleaner tile lining the walls. Walking out was like walking into a freedom of the unknown. She'd only come so far from home when I was with Carly and Spencer. She'd have to walk about 3 blocks to get to the actual train station but it didn't matter. She was going an no way was anyone gonna stop her.
What could you expect from Seattle but rain. The rain made her and whatever small possessions she thought to grab, soaked by the time she got to the train station. She looked at the boarding times... 3:45 trip to Vancouver Canceled
"What!" there just had to be a mistake. Had to be. Sam walked up to the customer service desk and panicked. "Please tell me that the sign is wrong." to the large woman who sat behind the desk.
"I'd like to mam but the 3:45 trip to Canada has been canceled because of the weather. There's too much ice on the tracks."
"So tell a Canadian to get a pick and remove the ice. I need to get there!"
"I'm sorry." she said then began clacking away on the keyboard.
"UGH! Sorry isn't good enough" Sam yelled.
"Mam, if you can't control yourself I'm gonna have to call security."
"You know what... I hope your happy. You may have just ruined my life." Sam stormed off found an empty place along the wall to lean against. Running her fingers through her tangled mass of hair she thought of her options. "The longer I stay in one place the sooner Freddie will find me. Where do I go? Oh man I have to pee like Niagara Falls." "That's it! Niagara Falls here I come"
She made a bathroom stop and then ran to get a taxi to take her to the airport.
My eyes are open wide
and by the way, I made it
Through the day
I watched the world outside
By the way, I'm leaving out
Today
Just as Sam was getting into her taxi, Freddie's taxi had arrived. "Sam!" he yelled. "SAM!" She closed the door as Freddie was running to her taxi when it took off he ran back to his cab. "Follow that cab! He yelled and pointed. "I'm going to find you Samantha Puckett." He said to himself.
Here's my chance
This is my chance
Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance
Yep sorry its short... and took awhile to update.. I blame school. And for those of you who said that a day after is too soon for morning sickness... I know that. But you have to remember how much she drank the that night. She still has a hangover.
