Chapter 6
I woke up slowly. I was sprawled
across the pavement, I ached all over and my head hurt like crazy.
All of a sudden I vomited on the road. I slowly got myself up and
began to walk. It was dark by this time, and very cold. I
didn't know where I was, I was totally lost, but in a weird way
I felt safer than I did at home.
It had
been about an hour of walking, and I was shivering cold, with only
my school uniform on. I was near some kind of estate. I heard loud
music drunken noises. Dogs barked loudly and boys were getting into
fights. The walls were covered in un-readable graffiti, and what
looked like urine. Litter covered the streets and smashed glass
surrownded the whole area. I carried on walking.
I was so cold. My lips had turned blue and my hands were red. As I
walked further a car drove next to me and slowed down. A good
looking boy was driving and smiled at me.
"What's a girl like you doing here?" He asked me.
I smiled shly and said that I was lost.
He offered me a ride, and I could see him staring at the cuts on my
arm. He looked at me sympathetically. I couldn't refuse. I was
cold and tired. He looked like a nice guy, what could be the
harm?
I smiled and got in the car.
