I woke up the next morning. I felt more...different. I wanted to cry but it was like my emotions were already fully taken away. I knew they weren't fully taken because I still felt heartache. I sat up on my bed when at that moment I heard strange voices outside of the room. It was two men and my "mother" talking. I got up and got dressed very quietly so they wouldn't know I was up. Also so I can hear what they were talking about. I heard something shocking. I heard one if the men say, "I seen him sneaking around last night..." then something else after. My heart dropped to the floor. I knew we had to leave today. I hurried more with getting dressed. I finished and started putting on my shoes.
