Chapter 3 enjoy!
I walked home that day and when I was inside my house I heard my parents discussing something in hushed tones. I stopped at the edge of the kitchen to listen.
"Mary, we can't just drop her off somewhere! I won't let you do that to Emma." My foster father Hatori whispered.
"I can and I will. Think about it Hatori…We will have so much more money if we do! She runs up all the bills!" Mary hissed.
"Mary I think you are so wrong for doing this….!" Hatori retorted.
"I am doing it Saturday. Whether you are with me or not!" She shouted.
"I'm Home!" I shouted. They came out of the kitchen to greet me. Hatori with a grim expression and Mrs. Mary came out with a look of satisfaction. "At least Dad still loves me." I said to myself. Mary greeted me cheerfully and asked me if I wanted to go shopping Saturday and I said yes. If I was going to leave I might as well go along with it. Later on while I was in my room Dad came in.
"Em, I have something to tell you." He started slowly.
"I already know…. Mary wants to get rid of me." I interrupted meanly. I hated being so mean to him, but hey he was going along with it! I focused on his thoughts.
I wish Mary would change her mind. Emma is such a good 15 year old. It's wrong to leave a child.
I snapped back into reality. Oh my god he wasn't going along with it willingly! At least he still had some sense in him. I still felt like no one cared though. Everyone that I thought loved me is abandoning me because I run up the bills!
"So you heard….. Listen she is planning to drop you off in bad neighbor hood and…..if you just go to Yogi's house maybe you can get a place by yourself…..but never get yourself involved with us again." He explained to me.
I nodded.
"Well off you go Em! I will miss you so much." He said suddenly embracing me. I cried for the first time in my life I cried my heart out.
I left that night when Mary was asleep. As I walked away from the apartment I wondered what was in store for me in the future. It seemed unclear and uncertain.
I made it to Yogi's at 12:00 midnight. I looked into her window, she was still was awake
playing video games! I knocked on it. She looked and gasped. Yogi unlocked it and said;
"What the hell are you doing here!?" she screamed with surprise.
I quickly filled her in on everything. She agreed to let me stay there if I got a place on my own real soon. Thank god for Yogi! There wasn't even school the next day so we could stay out until the show! I would be staying in the secret room in her closet that she had found a year ago and never told anyone about it except me.
The next day at 9:50 we sat off for the show! Once we entered and took our seats an eerie green light began to glow…….
That is the end of this chapter! Next Chapter is the show!
