“No!” Erika was screaming at her mother in a low tone, with a slight lisp through her teeth.

” You can’t make me go out there, you just can’t!”, slowly tears started streaming down her rosy cheeks. Right now, she has just been entered in a beauty contest. Her mother had wanted her to go onstage in the bathing suit contest. She was beautiful, though. Such outstanding features; high cheek bones, a heart shaped face, big blue eyes.

” I dont understand why you can’t just walk out there and walk back! Its not that big of a deal, honey.” Her mother, on the other hand, was only trying to make her own dreams come true.

“You’re starting to be like dad, selfcentered and careless about your daughter!” Erika ran out of the backstage area and outside, realizing that she had no where to run to, so she hid in an old broken down house… her mother starts looking for her about an hour later.
