Here's the chapter I promised. Great news… last chapter is going to be done tomorrow! : )
And I will start part 2 tomorrow as well. I will write 3 chapters before I start posing. : )
I gave up with the songs things since I don't like looking the lyrics or listening to the song over and over. But now, I am just going to do this at the start of each chapter…
She walks to school with the lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holding back
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace
Ohhh
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place
Where she's loved
Concrete Angel
Somebody cries in the middle of the night
The neighbours hear but they turn out the light
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes it'll be too late
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place
Where she's loved
Concrete Angel
A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
Her name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place
Where she's loved
Concrete Angel
So, my life has been horrible in the last few days. You know on how I told some of you that I base this story on my best friend Annie? Well, the police found something out. She didn't kill herself; her foster parents stabbed her to death! :'( Annie wrote a note to me, and you don't want to know what it says, in summary, she knew it was going to happen and she says, she will always be in my heart and that she knows I will be a great author. This whole story will be on HER life. I just switch something's but MOST of it is her life. That is why this story is so important to me. I may just switch the ending, but I will switch and change things around, like ages, some places. Like, I picture Ontario as New Mexico. When I publish, I will switch the places again and the names. Just so you know "Nessie" is Annie's favourite name. So when I'm older, I will name my daughter Nessie. Annie was… IS still my best friend. She is with me. This Thanksgiving is the first Thanksgiving without Annie, like my birthday was, then Halloween, Christmas, etc. my life will never be the same ever again. To top it off, my ex-best friend and I had a MAJOR fight and now we 'hate' each other. Our friendship will NEVER be saved. Must love high school drama right? Well, anyway, here's the chapter and don't be mad at me for the ending. It is sad but I need it that way, for the rest and get ready to cry in the last few chapters, unless you're strong enough.
Chapter 24
As morning arrived and everyone packed up to go home, Troy and Lucy were crying. They haven't found Gabriella and they were scared, Greg and Emma will kill her. They both wanted her back and knew it would be hard to give her freedom, to save her from death, to love her, to give her what a real family is. The only way to do that is… to save her from Emma, Greg, Mrs. Hard, Jack and the other guy.
With Gabriella
As Gabriella awoke, she saw she was home. She knew she was in the closet… the one where she gets locked into when Greg and Emma were too tired to beat her. She grabbed to lamp and a book that she always had in there, and started to read… to escape from this madness.
As evening arrived, Gabriella was on the ground, bleeding, bruised and gasping for air. Her parents just finished beating her for the 20th time that day. As Gabriella slowly sat up, she slipped on her shoes and started to clean up HER blood. She put 2 fingers into her mouth and pulled out her baby tooth. She washed it, and a washcloth, and slipped it into her jeans pocket; she has worn since she was taken from Troy and Lucy. After the floor was clean, she washed out her mouth and wiped the tears from her eyes. She knew this was the beginning of her nightmare that she couldn't escape; she was trapped, in this life… forever.
