lost in woods
Author's note:
I hope people would get from it alot of lessons and they are not to trust anyone and how to pick their friends
“We were lost.Dust and smoke everywhere blinded our sight.The air was passing
through my flesh giving me this shock that wakes me up.The sound of cracking branches from
the trees on the floor getting cracked by my naked foot.The pain I felt while my system trying to
clot .Trees were everywhere blocked our way our only way to survive.The sound of tears
coming from my sister and the hiding of screams inside my brothers soul .He ran after us with no
stops we were sweating with shaking knees and cold face with no feelings.I woke up in the
morning while everyone is sleeping stepped out of the bed my legs were cold achy and tired
took my pillow and placed it at the top of the bed spread my bed sheets.
I went to the bathroom looked in the mirror my face was off color, my hair was
everywhere as if someone was fighting there.I brushed my teeth, wore my cloth they looked old,
clinched and stupid.I was a hardworking student they called me L THE NERD. I never liked it,
but it keeps me off a lot of embarrassing topics.I went down stairs dad was already at work and
my mom busy on the phone as usual.As for my little beasts food was coming out of their
mouths.The table was shaking, juice was splitting all over and their screams almost can break
your eardrums, but what we say except “kids” you gotta excuse them.
I sat on the table my foot touched the floor cracked and hard I felt the cold passing
through my skin.

“ Pass me the milk “ sam said.
Sam is an unusual freak.He sets all day facing his laptop with big wide eyes and a
fat big yellow face.Al kinds of speakers and technology were hanged and setting on the
floor everywhere in his room. He was a total weird guy for me but I had to accept the fact
that he is my brother and that he will always stay as a geek.A weird thing that surprises
me that he is one of the most popular kids in school can somebody tell me how please? I
have been wondering a lot how the school system works and how could I be so popular
like others kids why not me? I was taken away from this reality that I will never be that
kind of rich popular pretty girl someday.Well, I got off topic Sam is a tall guy with brown
hair and the weirdest outfits ever.
I wasnt there most of the time I was always passing ideas from side to another in my
head I was lost and I am gonna stay lost forever mentally and physically.
“Laila” mom screamed.
“yes, “ I said.
“You are late to school,” mom said.
I took my stuff, books were falling from my backpack , my pants wasnt in its place and
my face was messed up here I am just being me.My bus drivers name is Patricia the fattest and
the means lady you would ever see.She will leave you if you are on time even before time and
after a while, she will know when exactly is your time she will come before it and leave you.If
you tried to complain you will not see the bus for the rest of your life.Once you enter you will
see walls that had been scratched by anger and fights.First class seats are for the seniors,secound
class is for sophomores and finally, the last two seats are for the six freshmen well I know life is
not fair you gonna be more shocked when you know that only one senior have to set with those
six freshmen which are me. the nerd doesnt get to set back there because Jack the fat is sitting
back there and he doesnt like skinny, nerd girls which are me.He looks exactly like that kind of
fairy tails giants with big feet, big hand and hairy body with rabbit teeth with the most important
thing is his big double fat belly and thats him.I walked in and sat quietly until we are there when
it actually comes to the bigger problems.
I was always on time always the first in class, I felt that someone was staring at me, but
no one was there.He entered the class smiling his smile was gorgeous as if his face was a
painting with brown hair, bright teeth, and a tall strong body.He never noticed me his name was
Jason I bet he even knows who I am.It doesnt mean that when I have a crush that no one would
have a crush on me.Darwin the creepiest and scariest kid in our school when he stares at you
cant actually even guess what he is thinking of his look was just like that big freeky eyes that
can glare at you for hours and never looks away I always wanted to know is that love or
hatred,but I guess I will never know.He always says hi and I reply back, but I will never act like I
love someone and me dont.
I was done with all classes.I went to the driveway to find my bus but she left me as
usual.I had to walk, while I was walking in the street Jaison stopped.
“Do you want me to drive you home,” he said.
For a second, I thought he was talking to me.I looked around as the wind flipped my hair
and slapped me in the face I saw Jessie the most beautiful girl in our school I didnt get mad or
anything because I knew for somehow it's never gonna be me.
“Oh yeah sure,” Jessie said.
I walked until I got home my knees were shivering, my teeth were shaking and my skin
was transforming into the hulk.I opened the door and the wind slapped it.Dad was home sleeping
I never knew him for real he goes in the morning to work and he comes and sleeps he never
spends the day with us even in family night I feel sometimes that he doesnt exist like if he was
with us to just give us money and I dont want that I want him to come back as the person that I
loved when I was young as the person that used to care much about me, do his duties as a dad,
not a bank account.
“Why you late” mom shouted.
“The bus driver left me,” I said.
“So you were late,” mom said.
“Why dont you ask if I was fine or not if I was feeling cold or warm if I was dead or alive “I
screamed.
“I am sorry sweety I didnt mean to, “she said.
“Leave me alone I hate all of you”I screamed as I slapped the door.
I could see my veins running through my body, my red skin, and my warm breath.Why
life was so unfair to me?why only me? What did I do wrong? No, I dont think so.I kept on
letting tears leave my eyes as if it was a person running from their pain.I was thinking like a
machine that only bring up your worst and your worst like a devil who is making you feel pain.I
slept after a lot of thinking and tears.
I woke up and I found a paper in my hands it had my home address on it what was I
doing?Did I wake up?Was I writing the suicide note?I wondered and thoughts were jumping off
of my mind like a crazy person going out of his mind.
“Laila are you okay,” Sam said.
“I am fine going away leave me alone,” I said.

It was Saturday and we had the day off and as usual, we watch a movie together.I didnt
go to breakfast I sat in my room.After a while I went to the bathroom took a shower and dressed
up I was fast so fast that I didnt even bother asking them what movie they wanted to watch.
“Laila” Dad called.
“Yes, “ I said.
“Are you gonna go to the movie store,” he asked.
“Well yes dont you guys wanna watch a movie I am gonna go and get it, “ I said.
“ dont you want a company,” he said.
“Sure,” I said surprisingly.
I waited and waited but no one came I had to go anyway so I left.I usually go to the movie
library that is next to us.I saw Darwin the creepy kid from school he walked by me.
“Hi,” I said.
He never answered me which was weird because most of the time he is the one that says
hi and I dont answer him.He was mad he walked so fast that even the wind moved with him
along.I walked along to the store pushed the door and walked in it was humid, smelled old and
dark.I walked through the halls looking for a movie I looked on the floor I found old white shoe
when I looked up it was Mrs mary the store owner she was short with white hair and wrinkled
face she is always quite with a creepy smile but she seems nice.I went to a lot of movies finally I
found one with a lot of dust on it but it seemed like the good horror movie.I went to miss mary
and paid for the movie.
“Good choice,” she said smiling.
I walked out of the store as I walked out the bells rang when the door slapped after me it
was chilly outside and nice.I walked home the store was like 5 blocks away from my house.

I was finally home I knocked, but the door was opened I walked in I felt the floor under
my feet it was cracking and cold I called.
“Hey guys I am back” I screamed.
I got no answer I walked in looking for them no one was there the light were on, the tv
was also on but no one was there.I heard a voice like if someone was screaming so I ran I ran so
fast that I almost fell on my face.I entered the room they were setting they were setting down and
tied into the chairs my family members were in front of my eyes tied up into the chairs my mom
with her hair messed up and my dad with his red scared face trying to tell me what wrong but I
only focused on how they looked and why are they doing here my sister Sahra started screaming
her mouth was moving under the hard tap on her mouth.I looked at the side of the room I found
him it was him Darwin and Jaison I glared at them their face was yellow with wide opened eyes
and opened mouths I ran they were after me.Someone grabbed me from the back its all dark.I
was awake with robes on me and a tap that can stop your breath they had put us next to each
other and in front of us it was mom and dad.Their faces were different I never saw them like that
before they were lost with the sweaty face and shattering teeth.I never thought that it would be
them I was shocked why would they do that to us what did I do to them?
They both got knives in their hand I stared at them with open wide eyes asking them
with my eyes what is that for? They smiled my breath wasnt stable I didn't feel my body and I
didnt want my brother and my sister to see that.My parents were in front of us they held their
knives hard and put it on their necks.We screamed as the blood of our parents was all on them
Sahara's face is that face that I will never forget its gonna stay there in my mind forever for my
brother he was laughing historically like if he never did before I wished it was a dream they left
both of them and we stayed there on the chairs still.we fell asleep and in the morning we woke
up we found no one I tried to untie the ropes around my body and I did I ran fast to Sahara.
“Wake up Sahara we have to go “ I whispered.
“Dont kill me please” She screamed.
“Hey, sweetie its fine I am here we are gonna go know I need you to wake up and focus,” I said.
Now we have to wake up sam and run fast we woke up sam he looked daisy and his face
was turning into white from just being scared.We ran from the back door to the woods it was
cold and dry and we were tired.I heard footsteps coming “Darwin they are running” I heard them
screaming I grabbed Sahara and we started running into the woods she had no shoe on.We kept
on running through the trees as it got darker and darker we were lost for about five hours finally
we found a police car coming through we all stopped it by waving our hands and
screaming.They took us to the police station it was loud and we had been asked a lot of questions
about our parents until when a policeman came to me and told me.
“Mam please I will ask you to turn around and that anything you will say now will be used
against you,” he said.I didnt talk I just looked at my sisters face it was dirty with innocent eyes
and tears running through her face that killed me.My brother started fighting with them with a
shocked and mad face they were holding them back and tears were just running throw his face
and mine.I sat with the policemen and they told me that I had been charged for killing both of my
parents in front of my sister and my brother I tried to tell them that it wasnt me but no one
listened to me.They are gonna put me in jail for killing my own parents.They told me that my
sister and my brother are gonna be put in a foster care.My life was destroyed.I asked them “are
they gonna go to the same school” but they never answered me back I cant even cry because I
thought it was all a dream I am in jail becauseI killed my own parents and those crazy murders
are out there with my left family.
“You got a visit” the officer yelled.
“Hi L do you miss me” Darwin smiled.
“Dont touch them” I screamed.
“I will try not to,” he said smiling.
