Chapter 1 Finally free

The results are in!

My grades are better than anyone thought I could and my place in college is secure.

'what did you get?' sarah yelled from across the hall where we was collect our grades.

'all c grades! What about you?' I yelled back.

She comes running over with her own papers to show me what she got out of her exams.

'better than they said too!' I grinned at her

The teachers formed up a row to congratulate everyone on their exams, in that moment my mind was whirling back to the months I spent in isolation here. The many tears that had flowed the tales I wished I'd never told and the traumas I had suffered. I remember each time I was told ill never go anywhere. I remember the days of being searched for contraband. I remember being the one who had noone.

'the news paper wants photo's come on!' Sarah yelled excitedly. I rolled my eyes but followed her anyway hiding my excitement at having good enough grade to be in the article. We all posed for the camera before leaving our old school to move on with our lives.

I smiles as we left this place finally with a free heart feeling certain my future would be brighter.

We had the last of the holiday left before we had to start college. Sarah and I, slowly worked through our college check lists.

We was doing different course's and would need different things, but we still did all of our shopping together from note books and folders to uniforms. We even met up at the end of our induction days. Sarah was family, she's become the only person I would trust for a long time.

She was straight to the point and blunt said whatever she thought and had a love for fun. She was naturally blonde and thin with a chest I was so jealous of. She was my best friend and I'd do anything for her. She was the person who stood by me when I had noone the one who held me up when I broke down the one who told me. 'f*ck em you don't need em, you've got me.'

We stuck together through everything.

I wasn't the only one struggling to bear the weight of past either but if it crushed us it'd crush us together.

I suppose now I should introduce myself. I'm Melanie. I contrast from Sarah dramatically. My dark brown hair fell down my back in a mess of waves and curls, even now In the middle of summer my pale face in sharp contrast, my green eyes really my only interesting feature. I was thin with almost no chest. Sarah was always in bright colours with her bright blonde hair and pretty blue eyes. I was always in darker clothes and tried to blend in as much as possible.

'wanna come to a party later?' Sarah asked me as we caught the buss back.

'nahh, I heard the drama kids are having a party, their your crowd not mine, have fun tell me all the gossip later.' I told her genuinely hating the thought of having to attend a party with a bunch of kids that didn't like me.

'okay I'm staying there tonight so I'll text you in the morning, yeah?' Sarah answered knowing it was useless to try and convince me to go.

'okay text me when you out again I'll come meet you.' I told her knowing she'd be texting me the whole time anyway.

When we got off the buss we went to Sarah's house first. Her mum always cooked us both dinner we was together so much. So we went and ate I helped her get ready for the party before leaving.

I didn't go home I avoided 'home' as much as I could. I'd been left alone since I was a small child left to my own devices, left to learn alone, left to play alone, left to grow alone. My family felt they couldn't control me, they couldn't make me behave or do as told. But I wouldn't for them not because they brought me into this world. That isn't enough. Besides I was past the point where I needed them to raise me. I was raised now I did it myself.

I wondered down the town I grew up in and sat in my hiding space by the river. I liked to be alone it gave me the freedom to think what I wanted to and not what everyone expected me to. I felt free here.
