❝Wandering off❞

.•*•.

Paris is so beautiful and I love this city so much more than the one I'm used to and I'd rather live here than there. I've stumbled to a mall and it's amazing. Fountains and others statues around and I'm in awe of how beautiful everything looks and is. I don't have any money or anything on me for the record so all I can do is look at it and admire it all. The clothes are so much more beautiful or if it's just me noticing it for the first time. 17

The smile on my face never disappears as I just continue to walk and see everything new. There are so many people here and most of them are speaking French while there are some that are speaking in another languages. I sit down on a bench in a park and watch everything that goes around me. I don't understand why I did not come to Paris sooner, I should have done that in my life but I think I was too busy taking care of my younger siblings since our parents were never really good at that, so I took it upon myself to take care of them when they did not. 28

Then I start to grow very hungry but then I remind myself that I can't buy food with no money so hungry I will have to be for a while which reminds me, I should head back to the hotel. I stand up but my face pales when I realize that I have no idea how to get back. I've been so lost in all the beauty that I've just walked and walked and looked at everything my eyes could see. I look around me to try to find the way that I came from and I seem I can't find that now. 62

I walk over to the nearest person, a woman holding a baby in her arms and a small boy playing with her pants. "Hey, excuse me, can you speak English?" I ask her when I approach her. She nods her head and smile at me which I return. "Can you please show me where I can find a map?" I ask her kindly. She nods her head again before she gestures me to follow her. "Thank you" I tell her, she tells the boy something in French and he follows us too.

The woman doesn't speak to me as she leads me to the mall again and there she points to a table and I walk over there. And she goes somewhere else. I notice that there is a map on the table. A screen map of some sort and it shows everything around here and I see the name of the hotel, I don't know what it means but I know that is the name that I saw and it's pretty far from here but not to worry. I make a mental note on where to go from the map and then I head off.

The sun is starting to set when I'm walking back to the hotel and I'm starting to get so worried about this whole thing. What if my so called husband is in the hotel room right now? But on the other hand he doesn't care about me so why should he worry about it? I can disappear for a week before he would even lift his finger to try to find me. The darkness is taking over all around me when I notice that people are still roaming the street and I'm safe.

Fear is starting to creep into my bones and I'm almost shaking with fright, not the cold since it's not that cold out here but the fear is too much or me. I'm scared and I'm all alone and I've forgotten where I was going. The mental note I made in my head was much easier to follow when I was looking at the actual map but now I've forgotten how the map even works. I'm walking in random directions, just following and following the things that look familiar to me but there are so many things that are familiar to me since I wanted to see everything that my eyes could see. 24

I must keep calm and just continue on even though the sun has set and the night has taken over. My body is begging me for food but I have no money to get it like before so I will have to be hungry for some time now besides, the fear is taking over any hunger that my body has. I just need to find the hotel but where. I go past a corner and I'm in a place I don't recognize or I don't think I recognize it.

With tears in my eyes, I sit down on a bench. I never should have gone somewhere. I hate to say this but Sebastian was right for me to not leave and I should have listen to him but he can never know I said that. I sigh as I lean back on the bench watching fewer and fewer people walk the streets as the night is taking over. This can't be happening, this is the worst thing that has ever happened to me, well except for the fact that I'm married to a man I don't love nor do I even know.

I'm not even sure why he would take me with him. I just have to face the fact that he doesn't care about me at all and the only reason why he did indeed bring me is to show everyone that he's married and nothing more. Then again I don't think anyone notices me. The pang in my heart is enough to let a tear slide down my face. I'm all alone in the middle of the night, hungry and a bit cold in a city that I don't recognize with no one here to help me out. Then my eyes catch something that shocks me to the core.
