Nicki walked into her house and mentally prepared herself for Lil's yell. Nicki's parents were divorsed and she lived with her father, although she saw her stepmother more often. Lil, Nicki's stepmother, didn't like Nicole at all. She constantly found something to yell about and treated Nicki like the dirt on her shoes, Nicki found Lil's attitude almost always unbearable.
Nicki stepped into the kitchen, hopeing she could get to her room before Lil realized she was home, she knew her dad wouldn't be home for hours. "Nicole!" Lil's voice yelled, "where were you?"
"I went to Alicia's, her mom just dropped me off"
"why?"
"Because I wanted to, I knew I wouldn't get to the other school in time for you to pick me up and I wasn't gonna walk home" Nicki answered.
"Why didn't you call?"
"Because I didn't think you'd care, you never have before"
"Your grounded, no tv no phone, no going anywhere except school and then your home" Lil said.
"Yeah right, it wouldn't matter anyway, I'm 15 and you don't trust me enough to cook, then you bitch and moan when you have to, not to mention I'd like to see you try and keep me here" Nicki screamed and ran to her room, slamming the door behind her. She thought long and hard about what to do, she couldn't keep this up, she needed a life, a real life where she could be happy. She couldn't live with her mom, she had to much to deal with already. But, she couldn't stay where she was, there was only one choice. The only one she could make, the choice of freedom.
