Bab 183: He Wouldn't Stand For That

Gracie's lack of friends wasn't her only problem either. Bill was far from her mom's last boyfriend. They only got worse as time went on. 

Harley, the most recent in her long line of losers, was a real creep. She didn't like the way he looked at her. 

It really wasn't as surprising as it should have been when he tried to make a pass at her when she was sixteen. She knew she couldn't stay there any longer. She had to make her way back to Kyzi early because it wasn't safe at her mom's place. 

The problem was that Gracie didn't know exactly where he lived. She knew where the campsite was that she had been staying at when she got lost but would wandering around in the woods really work for him to find her? 

She had read all about wilderness survival skills but that wouldn't help her much without having the right materials. She took as much cash from her mom's wallet as she could before running off but it wasn't enough to get her everything she needed.
