Abi knew today would be the day she'd say her final goodbye. She waited as the sun began to rise, she knew Tommy and Gina wouldn't be up for a few hours yet. Those were her adoptive parents, she'd spent the last few well, let's call it years going from adoptive family to adoptive family, all her original family were dead. She pulled her covers off, already dressed as she had considered leaving in the middle of the night, but decided to at least wait for the sun to come up somewhat. Abi had no idea where she was going to go yet, but she had to go today, or she'd loose her nerve to do it.<br/><br/>She grabbed her small rucksack of important things, took her mothers necklace from the side of her bed, and put it on. Pulling on her fingerless gloves and her hooded jacket, she laced up her military style boots and set off quietly out of her room. Taping her note to the door it read:<br/><br/>Dear Tommy & Gina,<br/>Thank-you for graciously accepting me into your family and treating me as I was your own,  I've had a wonderful 2 and a half years here, and you've been nothing but wonderful to me. However, as much as it pains me to do this, I have to leave. I would have said goodbye to you myself, but I've never been to good with those.<br/>Love, Abigail xoxo<br/><br/>Once she'd taped it to her bedroom door she went down the stairs and out the door, trying to make as little noise as was possible. Once she was outside the cool morning air hit her. Abi walked down her street and carried on walking straight out of her town, through another, past fields full of cows and sheep, down country lanes. She stopped after she'd been walking for what seemed like hours when she came across a small cafe on the outskirts of a town. She paid for her mug of tea and a sandwich, she hadn't eaten before she left and was hungry. Once she had eaten her food, and drank her tea she left the cafe and carried on walking, right through the town, by now it was late afternoon, the sun was beginning to set. Giving the sky a crimson orange colour that tainted the pale blue that had been there earlier that day.<br/><br/>She got to the end of the town, and found a small woodland, there didn't seem to be any other way out of town, so she walked down the uneven dirt track that led her into the woodland, as she came to the edge of it, she realised it opened into a clearing, which seemed to be a massive field, with nothing but one house. From the looks of it, there didn't seem to be anyone around. She walked up to the house, not realising how the evening had crept into night around her, and knocked on the door, hoping whoever was home would be kind enough to offer her a place for the night.
