Going
Back
Intro
Ever made a huge mistake and wanted to take it all back? Ever
wanted to do something all over again? Ever wanted to go back and
fix everything? Well, in Rozella's world, that was possible.
Every picture you had. With the special code, you could go back
to that moment. Great right? Yeah it seems like it. Maybe it
is..Maybe it isn't. How about we start from the
beggining.
I kicked up the leaves that had fallen on the ground. The big
factory doors slammed behind me. Yet again I had been thrown out.
Sighing, I looked up at the sky. It was a unusually warm November
day. The trees that outlined the small fenced in part of town
blew leaves everywhere. The town I lived in was small. There was
only about 70 people who lived there. I knew basically everyone.
It was nice. But we were very distant from the other towns. Our
town had a fence that blocked off everything. I never knew why
and I was sure I wasn't going to find out anytime soon. I was
known by everyone. I was the towns trouble maker. Always up to no
good with Caleb. I liked hanging out with Caleb. He was the only
person that actually talked to me. Being one year older than me,
he did tease me but it was better than hanging out with the only
two other people that were in my grade. There were
not many girls in my town. It was only me, the moms, Sadie,
Melanie, Bruanna and my sister Danielle. But I guess she
didn't count. Considering she had died last year. The cause
of her death? No one knew and no one really cared. Except for me,
that is. But people really didn't pay attention to children.
We were over-looked. Someone could miss a whole week of school
and no one would care. I was forced by my mother to go to school,
but if it was my choice I would never go to school at all. We
didn't even learn much. It was one teacher for the whole
school which was only about 20 kids. Suddenly, I felt a hand on
my back. I jumped and turned around, finding Caleb,
"Don't scare me like that!"
He chuckled, "Sorry Zelz."
I looked at him, "Where have you been?"
"Trying to find a way out."
"Again? Caleb, it's impossible!"
"Zella! There has to be a way!"
I shook my head, "There can't."
"I can't argue with you. But don't come to me when I
find a way out and dont't take you."
I hit him lightly on the arm, "You wouldn't do that!
Would you?" I gave him a look of sadness.
He shook his head, "Nah. I'm playing!"
I smiled and groaned as I heard a bell ring, "Time for
school." I cheered sarcastically. Caleb laughed lightly then
walked off with me as we headed towards the small school building
that I had been dreading to come back to.
