17 ,thought Rachel as she brushed her hair aside,smiling.
seventeen she knew now she had to try and act like an ad-
ult ,her youth was hers and no one could take that away in
fact from her,she had a good life somw mistakes she made
one or two, but one in particular stood out the most when in
fact she was nine years old and bad decision on her part.

She needed monry but could not find work she started then
walking the streets unfortunately being alone she did not know
what to do, men in a van grabbed her and put her in the van
 

It was later learned that she was in trouble. 
 

She did not tell anyone at all, that in itself was trouble when you
dont tell someone your in trouble .
 

Rachel was found dead later by the police the killer or killers in
fact were never found .Please when your seventeen need help
don't be afraid to ask,Please talk to your parents teachers or the
police someone will listen, 
 

Turning into an adult is never easy but please don't runaway or
drugs someone is there trust me.
 

Just say I need help ,
