I hand him the money and he hands my ticket and nods "the bus is leaving in 20 minutes but you can wait inside if you like."

He points towards a small coach and I nod "that?" He nods and I smile "thank you."

I walk towards the coach and a woman standing outside on her phone holds her hand out "where to?" I smile and her my ticket "Chihuahua."

She tears a bit of my tickets and hands me it back "take a seat."

I smile and walk onto the bus and sit down in the middle of the bus and stick my earphones in listening to my phone for a few minutes.

The bus starts moving and I look around as we drive down the town centre and take a deep breath "to new beginnings."

I close my eyes and lean against the window and drift off to sleep.

I open my eyes and see I'm only one hour away so I sit up and get my notebook from my handbag and go over my notes.

'Ok so there is a train due 2PM which will take me to Delicia and I check into the motel and go job hunting'

I smile and nod sticking the notebook back into my bag 'I was finally free and it felt so good.'

The bus stops and the drive stands up and walks towards me "this is you honey."

I smile and grab my handbag and suitcase "thank you."

I get off the bus and look around "you looking for something particular?" I laugh nervously and nod "the train station?" She points towards an old looking building and smiles "thank you."

I walk towards the building and open the door.

I get a train ticket to Delicia and look at my watch "the next train to Delicia will be here in 7 minutes."

I smile and look towards the microphone hanging from the wall "perfect."

I walk towards the platform and sit down looking at my phone and see 38 missed calls and 23 text messages from Mr White "and block."

I smirk as I press the block button on his number and place the phone back into my bag as the train comes towards the platform.

When the train pulls into Delicia I look at my phone and map the route towards the motel and begin to follow it.

Once I get there it starts too rain so I run inside and walk towards the check-in desk.

"I have a room booked under as Belle?" The woman behind the desk smiles and hands me a piece of paper "for 3 nights that will be $66 please."

I hand her money and she hands me a key card "number 8" I smirk and nod "thank you."

I grab my suitcase and handbag and head towards the rooms.

I open door 8 and look around the room with a large bed and a set of drawers with a TV on the wall "I love it."

I run towards the bed and jump onto it star fishing it.

I get up and make the bed again before grabbing my handbag "job hunting time." I

grab the key card and stick it in my bag as I walk out the room and towards the towns centre.

I see a few shops and bars and a large mall so I walk towards the mall and walk into the stores but everyone tells me the same thing 'we are not looking for people but leave your name and number and we will get back to you when an opening comes up.'

I walk down the street and spot a shop on the corner with a man sticking a 'Help Wanted' sign up so I smirk and run towards him "wait."

He looks at me and smiles "can I apply for the job?"

He smiles softly and nods "have you ever done store work before?" I smile softly and nod "I worked in a shop in my old town for 4 weeks while the shop keepers' husband was away."

He smirks and nods "ok well just one more question." I stand up straight and nod "yes?"

He looks at the sign and smirks "when can you start?" I smirk and shake my head "right away."

He takes his sign down and heads inside "let me show you around then."

I follow him into the store and he shows me around showing me were everything is before heading towards the back of the till before showing me around the till .

"I think that's about it." I smile and nod "looks easy."

He hands me a piece of paper and nods "this is all the things that need done different days and I usually leave it behind the counter every morning so you can have a look if you're not sure and eventually you will get used to it."

He raises his eyebrow and shrugs "you are staying around?" I smile and nod "I plan to yes"

He smirks and nods "good."

He looks towards the back door "I will make you a badge and let you get used to the place?"

I nod and he walks towards the back of the store behind head into the door leaving me alone.

"I go this." I nod and take a deep breath before looking towards the door waiting for someone to walk in.
