With a sigh she closed the door; she was finally free from the shackles of confinement at home. This was the start of her new life and even though she was clueless about the future she had the prowess to face it .She knew her future would be better than her present and with this belief she move on.
She was Emily, my classmate .Emily was rapacious and selfish to the whole world but I knew the real her. She was a sensitive person with a hard crust outside and I don’t blame her for her rude attitude as she struggled a lot to hide her pains. On the first day of school I approached her to share the lunch table and the next thing I knew that I was thrown in the dustbin .It didn’t take me long to realize that the whole school hated her and was scared of her rebellious actions.
One day I saw her crying and even though I was scared to again end up in the dustbin I approached her. This time she was kind and unfolded the dark truths of her life. I was flabbergasted, with lump in my throat I stubbed my tears from rolling down the cheek. She told me her mother was dead and how her dad sexually abused her everyday.
The next day I heard she eloped from her house .Today I find her in front of me but not physically, she’s on television winning millions of hearts..Emily is now one of the richest women on earth and a great philanthropist.
