Mia kept running and running. She wasn’t sure where she was going to go. She needed time to think. She forgot her phone at Shane’s house, so she couldn’t tell her Dad what was going on. She was worried he wouldn’t come and get her. She wished her Dad was already here, it would make this so easy.
Getting to the end of town, she had to stop and rest. Her heart raced, and she was out of breath. She sat down on a bench.
“You look lost?” a man said coming up to her. She wanted to get up and run, but she was too out of breath. “Oh, and your tired, you would be an easy snack.” He said walking faster towards her.
Mia got up and back away from him. “Just leave me alone.” She said shaking her head. “I don’t want anymore surprises.”
