The Holidays

   “Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. I have to find her.” Abigail’s mother screamed as she was running out of the door.” Abigail’s mother started her intensive search around the town looking for her daughter. While her mother was searching, Abigail watched the play Lucas was starring in and started to fall madly in love. She had to find Lucas after the play. She waited for what seemed like forever and when she finally found him, Evelyn came out.
    “Hey beautiful. I really liked the show and I wanted to show you what a true number one fan I have become.”
    “I am sorry. What is your name?” Lucas questioned.
    “You can call me Evelyn. Now, can I show you a good time or what?”
    “Well I am a little busy tonight but here is my number and you can call me anytime.” Lucas said as he walked out of the theatre.
     Evelyn was beside herself and couldn’t wait to call Lucas. She thought he would bring a good time. She walked out of the theater and started on her way home. From the very beginning of her walk, she could feel someone watching her. After a block or so, she turned around only to find her uncle running after her. Immediately, Evelyn was scared and allowed for Lucy to take over.
     “Hey. I haven’t seen you in awhile. You never return my calls and it depresses me” her uncle said. He grabbed her arm so hard, she was sure that he would leave a bruise.
     “I missed you so much and then I see you talking to some stupid theatre kid and then I walked closer to make sure that wasn’t my special sweet Abigail talking to some loser. And turns out it was you!! And you talked to him like I wished you would talk to me. But you never do. I am so angry that he got attention that I never do.”
     And then, he started punching Abigail senseless. During his beating, he broke multiple ribs, cracked her skull, and broke her arm. When he was finished beating her, he kissed her cheek, and said,” Don’t make me wait so long to see you. I will be over to your house soon. Love you beautiful.”
     Abigail lays there unconscious for hours into the early morning. Since it was so cold, her body started to freeze. The blind man is walking down the street and runs into Abigail. At first, he thought Abigail was a big bag of trash. Then, he started to feel her body and realized she was in desperate need of help. He starts to scream for some help. At the same time, Abigail’s mother was driving by and heard the blind man’s cry for help and recognized her daughter’s body lying on the ground. She parked the car and ran to her daughter.
     “I am calling 911.” she said. The operator promised a response unit in less than two minutes. Abigail’s mother held Abigail and apologized for never paying enough attention to her. Her mother promised she would help Abigail with her problems. The response unit came to the scene and drove Abigail to a nearby hospital.

The Final Straw

       “What the hell?!! Get away from me you freak!” Otis yells as he runs away. Evelyn is hurt because guys usually fall for her seducing tactics. To cheer herself up, she walked around the city. She saw Isabella’s Café and decided to cheer herself up there. As soon as she stepped in, she felt right at home. She walked to the stage and started to dance.

By the end of the night, she had made over $800 and gotten numbers too. Evelyn felt good because she made money by doing what she was best at, making guys horny. She walked home and set her earnings and numbers on the night stand. She sadly got into bed because after such a good time out, she knew Abigail would make her go away for awhile.

The next morning, Abigail woke up feeling as if she had passed out. She couldn’t recall anything about the past day except talking to some Otis guy. She looked to the nightstand and saw a huge wad of cash and a pile of guys’ numbers. One note read: Had fun tonight. Call me back baby girl. 770-555-8984. Big Papa. 

“Who the hell is Big Papa? And where did all the money come from? What the hell is going on?!!” Abigail thought. Still confused, she got dressed and went downstairs. Her mother was rushing to work and then started screaming at her. 

“When I get home Abigail, we are going to have a huge talk! You can NOT come home anytime you want wearing slutty ass clothes. What the hell are you thinking?!! If you EVER, do that again, I will ring your neck right then and there. If you are not home at 6 o’clock tonight, you are kicked out of this house! I am tired of your bullshit!” And with that, her mother left the house and Abigail in shock. She had no idea what her mother was talking about. She didn’t even give Abigail a chance to explain.

To blow off some steam, she went to take pictures. She ended up spending all day taking pictures of Occupy and then the Forever 21 fire. It neared 6, so she started walking home but she saw this handsome young man walking into the theater. She followed him inside and heard a girl calling him Lucas. She immediately wanted to be close to him and was determined to meet him. She saw that a show was playing that night and decided to stay completely forgetting that she had to be home. Unfortunately, her mother didn’t forget and waited for Abigail until 8 o’clock. She had no other choice but to throw all of Abigail’s things out. She walked back into the house to hear the phone ringing.

“Hello. Mrs. Watson. This is Dr. Tanner and I have some news for you about Abigail.”

“I am sorry Dr. Tanner but I just kicked Abigail out of the house because even with therapy sessions with you, she is still acting out. You never did a damn thing to help her. I am no longer in need of your assistance. Thanks for wasting my time and money.”

“Wait. Mrs. Watson! I finally have a solution to Abigail’s problems. The times she acts out… Its not really Abigail acting out.”

“What the hell do you mean?! Don’t make excuses for the girl!”

“Mrs. Watson… I am afraid your daughter is schizophrenic.”
