1. Escaping from hell

The tv noises and shouts from her family faded into the background as Lila steps carefully out into the garden slipping on her to small crocs before darted out to the door.The crocs squeak and squelch as she walks and Lila finds herself grimacing at each step. She first opened the gate wide, there was a long awful creak.

The noises stop, sure she couldn't hear them much from before with the closed glass panel and her almost at her special tree spot deep into her large garden she knew it had gone silent in the house. She bit her lip, her heart was pounding like crazy and she has to use all her willpower not to make a sound.

She could hear calls for her know, she wasn't safe. Quietly she took off the crocs and frantically threw them in a bush, silently cursing the neon yellow making them still visible. Her hands were shaking and she prayed this wouldn't be her downfall.

Lila dives into a bush near where she threw her crocs as the noise of a glass door being aggressively slammed opened met her ears. She was biting her lip so hard now it was bleeding but Lila couldn't care less. She held her breath as she heard stomping coming closer and closer.

She ducked down further her mind racing with possibilities. She was fast and sneaky she knew that but could she escape the treacherous family- she had never before had the guts to. But tonight was the night, she knew she could do it she had the bravery tonight. Something odd and urgent had sparked in her and she knew it has to be tonight, that she couldn't live like this for a second longer.

A gruff voice panting heavily called out for her. "Lila, Lila where are yer. You know you're not allowed to come outside at night. And without my permission to..it's almost as if you want to be beaten, huh? Now come out before I find you. Because if I find you, you're dead."

Lila froze, her whole body stiff. She knew he was going to say this, it didn't shock her just absolutely terrified her. It was so much more raw and real then when she had planned this countlessly. She knew what to do..she could do it. But her thoughts still swam with doubts.

"Oh yer probably at that tree yer always hiding in. Oh lookie lookie yer crocs I so nicely bought for yer! In a bush...girl. She's run away..she done a runner! The gates open..she's done a runner!" He shouted and started dashing for the gate he wrongly thought Lila had escape from.

Lila let out a massive sigh, her whole body shacked with relief. She got up, peeking her head around the tree. He was tgone and the rest of the family were still inside as the tv had been turned on again. They really didn't care.

She fought past prickly leaves and regained her crocs which she didn't put on quite yet. She made her way to the very edge of the garden where she had made a hole just big enough for her to crawl through on the foolishly made wooden fence.

She got down and wiggled through, inhaling sharply as it cut her clothes and gave her cuts. She felt like she could cry and laugh at the same time. She was free.
