A Not-So-Simple Life (2008)
“My cousin Kim not only e-mailed me back on that horrid night, telling me to get out of that house, which I eventually did, but my uncle decided I should come out and spend some time with them. I didn’t argue.
And yesterday I got on a flight (which Uncle Allen paid for), and he and Kim picked me up at the airport. I’m sure they expected more gratitude from me, but the truth is, I feel dead inside. It’s like something in me is broken, and I don’t think it’s ever going to be fixed.
Kim showed me t...o the guest room. I only brought one bag, the same backpack that I threw things into on Friday night. I was too rattled and scared when I finally made my break out of the house midday Saturday. I wasn’t even sure if I was going to make it. It seemed that people had been coming and going all morning. Strangers, I think. Then the police. And finally Lynnette was down there yelling for me. I never answered. I don’t even know why. Except that I wanted out of there. For good. Naturally, I missed my photo shoot.MoreLess
