Inanimate Alice episode 5: New Zealand >> >> By Stephanie

My name is Alice I’m sixteen years old. >> >>

I’m living in New Zealand >> >>

I go to a real school know without getting home schooled >> >>

I’ve got heaps of friends >> >>

We all hung around where we can watch… >> >>

The BOYS play rugby >> >>

We moved here to get away from those men in Moscow >> >>

I’m at home playing on my new ba-xi i-story >>

I haven’t thought of a new game to make yet. >> >>

I can hear yelling and my mum crying >> >>

I stand up and peek through my door >> >>

My dad is standing at the door and mum is sitting on the couch crying >> >>

my dad walks out the door >> >>

A familiar voice speaks it’s Brad >> >>

He tells me to go and comfort mum >> >>

I go and sit down on the floor >> >>

I could hear a faint mumble coming from mum >> >>

She looked up at me with her red teary eyes >> >>

And tells me to go and pack my stuff >> >>

I argued with mum, I didn’t want to leave I had so many friends >> >>

But then mum broke down into more tears I couldn’t stand seeing her like this >> >>

We drove down to the airport >> >>

Mum asked the lady at the counter for the next flight to any country >> >>

The lady at the counter replied “the next flight will be to America at 7:00 tonight” >> >>

We sat down and didn’t speak >> >>

The silence broke >> >>

Mum stood up and told me to grab my stuff >> >>

She took off in a blink >> >>

I couldn’t keep up with her I saw her for a second then I lost her >> >>

Great now everyone was going to no me as “the girl who always loses her parents” >> >>

I heard my name faintly >> >>

Mum was waiting for me by the hallway door >> >>

My mum started walking at a normal pace again >> >>

We walked down the aisle and found our row of seats >> >>

Ming sat down in the corner by the window and I sat down on the outside of the aisle >> >>

Ming looked at the seat in between us >> >>

And dumped her bag there >> >>

I looked at her I wanted to no so badly what happened >> >>

I couldn’t hold on any longer >> >>

I burst of a million tears came running down my cheeks >> >>

And I asked why? All Ming did was cradle me >> >>

And repeated over and over again >> >>

That she’ll never put me through that again and that it was over. >> >>

I couldn’t help seeing her cry but I can’t stand being in the middle of everything. >> >>

I asked Ming if I was ever going t o see john again and she gave me a torn envelope >> >>

I looked at her and she turned her head I began to read it to myself.... >> >>

It was from john...it had al contact details on it >> >>

then I realised that they were having a divorce and that Ming hadn’t just went on a ran from john >> >>

I looked at her and she gave me a hug and said that she wouldn’t be able to ran away like that. >> >>

After she explained everything to me the plane started to go down for landing and we looked out the window and found ourselves in America. >> >>
