The Nightmare I Call Life Part 1

My life is a nightmare that you can NEVER wake up from until you die. My life is just like that. I live in a trailer,I am wicked poor,my dad abuses me,and my mom cheats on my dad. I don't fit in at school,I hate my name Sophia and pretend to everyone that it is actually Janessa. I am in a gang because I can't solve my problems. And boy is there a whole lot more to my story then just that.

I swear that night I went into the alley with my gang changed my life for the worse. I was dared by "the" leader Ray to go out of my way and steal part of the King Tut Exhibit in the museum down the street. How the heck was I gonna do it without getting caught?

I walked into the trailer I called home and threw my backpack to the floor. I sighed and grabbed a juice from the fidge. I couldn't seem to get the idea of me stealing a King Tut Exhibit item WITHOUT getting caught. I lost my train of thought when my 11 year old sister Goldie walked in.

"You seem nervous? What the heck did you do this time?" She said to me rolling her eyes. This was nothing new.

"I am not nervous brat. Leave me alone!" I said cruelly as I walked into the bedroom that me and my sister shared with our parents. I often slept on the lumpy old couch.

"Whatever. But I will find out what it is that is making you act like this." She said staring me in the eyes and slamming the trailer's front door behind her.

I walked into the alley the next morning to find that only Ray was there.

"Where is Tyler,Scruffy,Melinda,and Melly?" I asked getting nervous. I had to act tough.

"They went out. I wanted this meeting just to be the two of us." he said trying to make his voice sound sexy. What the heck was he doing? He started moving closer to me. I backed up to the wall. Bad move.

"I like you A LOT Janessa."He said putting one hand on the wall. He put it above my head. He moved his face so close to mine that I could smell his cigarette breath.

"Back off,I am only 16!"I yelled about to slap him in the face.

He touched my chest and kissed me on the lips tenderly. I hated this but for some strange reason I didn't want it to end.

    King Tut, my butt!

    What are friends for? You coulda just called me and I would have loaned you the exhibit piece I stole back when I was a member of the same gang. Duh!

    It was delightful to read. You might just be backed against the wall to get ya heart stolen instead.

    Interesting...It seems like it could turn into something much more. I would like to know what happens next.
    You should put more details into the surroundings, make me picture it in my head.
    Keep writing, Sam!
