CHAPTER I-

She opened her eyes ,blinking back any tears from last night. It had been a hard day and she didn't want to think about it at all. What had happened was a dream. Yes, a dream.
A horrible one at that....
Yes ,a horrible nightmare.
It wasn't real. And she would be more than happy to forget it.
Until.....
"Ma!" She closed her eyes and breathed in.
Her daughter. In front of her. Calling her. Right in front of her. Atleast she was okay. Safe and sound....
She looked into her daughters eyes. So bright. A deep yet lively brown. Warm and honey suckle.
"I need my breakfast." She was saying. She smiled and got up. Her daughter, was barely 7. And she needed help all the time.
Her path to the bathroom was bitter and long .....
She only kept thinking of last night.

"Youdon'tknow! Youwon'tevenunderstandyoucrippledwoman! Allyouareisaburdentome. Youandyoursicklydaughter! Justgetoutofhere!!"

Get out get out get out get out get out....

Would her daughter know that they had changed houses. That they were now in a rundown ruin she had managed to forage. What a nightmare. What a nightmare indeed.
She smiled still, even though her daughter wouldn't see. Just for her own benefit. Just for her own strength.
Food.
What would she do when the food she had snatched from there ran out? What then?
How would she earn? How would she afford her daughters schools high fees? How would she even survive these few days even?
Trying to let go of these thoughts she pulled out the small plastic bag and from it a sandwich. She set it gently into her daughters hands. Such beautiful little,soft hands they were. Would that remain so after even today?
Her daughter. Her beautiful little , innocent and lovely daughter.
What had happened?
Cold dread and nothing else snaked through her heart, ensnaring her senses. She couldn't breathe. Only panic. Even hysteria seemed more welcome than the present situation.
What had she done to deserve this?
And more importantly. What had her daughter done to deserve this?

You should continue....a little more about the past incident and maybe you can show how she embarks on her new journey leaving behind all that misery ,all that regret. Maybe you can show how the path is still full of thorns and end it with an intriguing climax or maybe you cam show how she settles her life and finds the missing piece of the so cryptic puzzle that is her life. btw these were very minor opinions....if u like them u can use them if u don't that's fine.

when I wrote this it was in the heat of the moment.. usually all my stories are like that but then I don't know what to write after but I've taken your views into consideration. Now that I legit don't remember what my actual plot was I have to think of a new, better one especially since there are a lot of grammatical errors here oh well
