Creative Writing: Escape From Society

There once was a bottle named Honey who lived in Bottle Town. He had a huge family consisting of ten siblings. Everyone in his family only cared for money but luckily he was the only one who decided to move away with nothing on his hands. His father and mother never looked up for their children so all of Honey’s brothers and sisters took care of themselves. The day Honey decided to leave he explained, “I’m sorry for leaving but I cannot live here anymore. I am planning on coming back but I need some time alone somewhere where no one knows me!” He cried from guiltiness.

Time passed and Honey had a moderate house, job and great love for his family. After time was consumed Honey motioned that the time had come for him to go back. Days later Honey received a call from his brother saying that he had decided to leave Bottle Town and for a period of time he was going to live with him. He explained to Honey that he had been threatened by some person who wanted the money he did not have available. His brother was extremely scared and didn’t know what else to do. A day after, Sammy, Honey’s brother, arrived at the door crying. They hugged and asked each other about their health. After a brief conversation Sammy said that he had not talked to anyone about the threat and that he wasn’t expecting anyone to find out since he knew that no one was going to believe him. Sammy said, “Honey, I am so sorry to have arrived

here to you and invading your space, but it was a harsh decision since my life was in danger. I’m sorry.”

Honey looked away trying to look brave but his eyes were filled with tears. “Sammy, you did reasonably right to come here. You were in danger! You should have come here since the very beginning. You did right in leaving Bottle Town and going somewhere else where no one knows you and no one can judge you.”

Sammy started crying and ran with despair. He was frightened; he didn’t know if someone had seen him flee the town during the night. He was paranoid and only thought he was being spied on by everyone as a fugitive. Honey felt horrible but he stayed by his brother’s side contemplating him. After some time Honey left the room declaring that he had to make a couple of calls.
