Other Possibilities

She shuttered as the front door slammed shut knowing that it was also closing on her future freedom. Only 16 years old, she only had to wait another 2 years to be free, to bad he wasn't going to let her go that easy. Finding an excuse to take her out of school was the first step he had taken, next was how much he hated being away from home alone. It was deemed reasonable to ship the teenage daughter off with him, she had nothing else to do. Kay had hated those trips more than anyone would have ever known, now they were supposed to be off on another work trip but she knew the truth. This was the last time she would see this house, her step brothers, or even the wicked b***h that was her step mother. Sadness threatened to take over as she watch the house get smaller, leaving here felt like she was being ripped outta childhood the thrown into a vat of acid that was being an adult. Inside she was screaming, begging someone anyone to see what was really happening here. Yet people smiled and waved as they drove past, here she would always be his daughter, he wanted the world to believe she was his prefect wife. Lord knew the man had been married 4 times and still couldn't find one woman who came close to his standards. Driving down the interstate, he reached to turn down the music. "What are you thinking" he asked her breaking into her twisted thoughts of killing him maybe herself. She smirked knowing the honest answer was the last thing he wanted, "just going to miss it is all," she lied neatly. "Miss what," he asked clearly confused, in his head this was the best thing to ever happen. "You know Mom, the kids, our pets, just life in general," she replied shrugging like it was nothing for her heart to be breaking. He nodded and she sighed with relief that was the right reaction. She would hate to deal with the consequences of replying wrong, the marks took weeks to heal. "Where are we going," Kay asked unsure she wanted the answer. "We are starting in Lexington, then wherever the wind takes us" he replied with a smirk. She suppressed a shutter remembering his plan silently wondering if she would ever be free
