Ive had enough

In and out in and out, thought Tracey as she waited by the door. Someone has to show up she just knew it. She didn't have any friends, but there were some pretty nick girls and boys at her school so she thought they might show, but they still hadn't. Its been hours since the party was supposed to start. No one had even called not even her parents, but she hadn't expected them too. Why would she they had never even bothered to feed her. She could hear her baby brother crying in the back room of the run down apartment. Great, she whispered in a raspy voice. She hadn't had anything to drink since Friday at school. They had running water, but it wasn't safe, and they didn't have a stove of pots to boil it on. So she only got something to drink on school nights. She ran back to her brother Toby. Shhhh! it's ok", Tracey whispered. After a couple lullabies and a bottle of milk her brother finally fell back asleep. She watched him sleep for a few minutes. This was on of the things that got her to smile. Just then as if knowing Tracecy was smiling, Toby gave the biggest widest smile she had ever seen. Tracey could help but laugh. She looked up a the cracked clock of the wall. Eight twenty-two read the clock. The party started at noon. She had to accept no one was coming. She decide to go to the store and pick up some grocires and a warmer blanket for Toby. She worked hard for the moment to get Toby something warmer than what he had. Tracey thought about her parents on the a banded icy streets. The store was only three blockes away but it felt like an eternity. Her parents had just left her had just left her. How could they? Right after her brother was born. Poor Toby would never get to know what its like to have a normal family. Just a broken one. He had to be raised by his twelve year old sister. It's not fair, she thought angrily. As she strolled to the market she counted the money she had earned last week from doing small jobs. Twenty-Three dollars and twenty cents she counted. Then she thought of Toby. Toby was the only thing keeping her alive without him her thoughts would have got the best of her. She lived to keep her brother happy. Just because her life sucked doesn't mean his had two. A single tear crawled down her face at thought thought of him home alone on a night like this. The slow paced walk had turned into a sprint at the thought of her brother freezing to death. She couldn't let that happen. How could she have left him alone. It's only twenty-three degrees outside. She ran into the store and grabbed some fourmlia and a case of water. She had thirteen dollars left. She spent three on some bread and then she went down the bedding aisle. She saw a blakent for only seven dollars. She Grabbed it and quickly hurried up to the checkout line. She purchased her goods and ran as fast as she could back to her apartment. When she returned she heard no crying as she had expected. She didn't even hear the ussaly snoring from her brother. She hurried back Toby's room only to see the thin she blanket her mother had left him wrapped around his neck. She brokes into tears as she rushed over to him. She checked his paulse nothing there. Tracey began to scream for help but no one came she cried and cried. This has to be a dream, she sobbed it has to, but it wasn't her broter was gone and not a single soul even cared. Its all my fault i should have never left him alone. Then she released she had had enough. She walked into the street and laid down. I have nothing else to live for she whispered to herself. Nothing, and thats when a big red semi hit her. The last thing she remembered was the intense pain and satisfaction of never enduring pain again. She beigan to awake and released it really was all a dream. She didn't realize there had been peanuts in the cake she had been eating. She awoke with her family surrounding her, and her three year old brother holding her hand. She heard sniffing. She awake cried a voice she's awake get a doctor. It was her mom. "Mom" Tracey tried to say but couldn't get the voice out. She felt many pairs of arms wrap around her, and a tears of relief filled her eyes. I love you all she said it loudest voice could produce and her whole family clapped. There was a mixture of words, but they were all word of relief. She was going to be ok.
