ROMANCE IN THE LIGHTS

The Scars She Hid From The World

The Scars She Hid From The World

REGINA MCBRIDE
The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

Emily stepped off the train and onto the busy platform of the city she now calls home. The rush of traffic and thousands of conversations replaced the peaceful quiet of his small town. Buildings have been built on it, and the windows reflect the golden rays of the sun. It was a stark contrast to the familiar environment she grew up in, but Emily couldn't help but feel a thrill run through her veins. He hailed a cab and hurriedly sat in the back seat, watching the city streets go by. He felt as if he had entered a new world, full of much-desired energy and vitality.

The cab driver looked at him through the rearview mirror and saw sparks fly from his eyes and fear cross his face. "Are you new in town?" he asked warmly. Emily nodded impatiently. “Yes, I just moved here. I want to find out soon!”

The driver said, “You have chosen a good city. Do I serve you here?

"I got a scholarship to study abroad." Emily explained in a voice full of pride and excitement. “I will go to college here and follow my dreams.”

The taxi driver nodded with a grateful expression. "Congratulations! An adventure awaits you. This city has a way of captivating people and making their dreams come true.”

As Emily walked the streets of the city, she was in awe of the sight before her. There were skyscrapers reaching up to the clouds, markets full of smells filled with smells and colorful street art adorning the walls of the buildings. The city was alive with a dynamic energy that piqued his interest and awakened possibilities.

A few minutes later, the taxi pulled up in front of a nice apartment complex. It was a lively neighborhood with cafes and boutiques lining the streets. Emily paid her bill, packed her bags, and stepped out onto the sidewalk to enjoy the lively atmosphere. When he entered the block, he couldn't help but feel the excitement in his stomach. It was the first time I lived alone, away from the comfort and familiarity of family and friends. However, he realized that he had to take this step in order to fulfill his dream.
