Did this have to happen now? Did it always have to be an everyday occurance? Once again her parents had struck again. Some happless group had unknowingly gotten themselves invovled with her parents scandalous lives. Con-artists by nature, her mother and father had taken to the shaddy business when she was but a girl. Now at a ripe age of eighteen they were still at it. Lord only knew how much money they owed various factions and individuals alike.
Due to the money owed, Lelana Collins had been reviered as a troublesome girl. Although this was far from the truth, an old hag of a lady, more correctly known as her aunt would travel from her comfortable living arrangements to take care of troublesome business with Lelana and her family. "This is the fifth time this week. Do they ever quit?" came the voice of her aunt as Lelana followed silently beside her.
The older woman was at a loss for what to do with Lana's parents and so turned her attentions to Lana instead. "You! You're going to work for that money they owe me. I don't care about the other people in this town. But I'm burning gas coming back and forth to save your hide. I'm losing money in my business and social life, I can't keep taking care of you and mama along with covering up the messes you're parents make." The woman howled.
Lana remained silent a frown creased diligently on her brow and a simple pout to her lips.
"What do you have to say for yourself?" Her aunt spat as they stopped in front of her car.
"Nothing. I am not responsible for my parents' deeds but it is quite obvious you're going to make me pay for it regardless." Lana huffed she didn't bother elaborating on the situation, she knew when she was in her right to speak or not.
"I'm taking you back to your home. I want you to pack all your belongings you'll be coming with me." With that said they were on their way.
At Lana's small country home, her grandmother was siting on the porch swing relaxing. Upon seeing her grandchild and her own daughter the old woman arched a brow in alarm. "What are you doing here?"
"Mama, you're daughter has lost her mind marrying that man. Look at what he has done to her life. She's out all the time, never coming home, and this child, she's bound to turn tricks just like her."
Lana snarled, "I'm not a slut and neither is my mother!"
"Shut up and pack!" the woman screamed slapping Lana across the face. This got a reaction out of the grandmother who stood to protect Lana from any further blows.
However, Lana wasn't about to stick around and be treated like so much garbage. Pushing past her grandmother and her bitter aunt, Lana was well on her way in a full run down the path and further into the small township that was her world. She would eventually find herself at a pub, where most of the locals gathered to sing, dance and entertain each after a long days work. Lana found a booth in the back where she order a simple lemonade and watched as a few of the local danced to some music on the worn dance floor.
