10、It’s dark and rainy outside. I hate it when the weather is like this;  1  when Mom and Dan are yelling（叫喊）at each other about me. I hate   2   when they do that; it makes me feel so guilty（内疚）,  3   it’s all my fault. But, it isn’t this time. This time I don’t think it’s anybody’s fault. It’s so easy to get  4   and when the weather is like this.

       I don’t even know  5  they are yelling about any more. And I don’t care,  6  . I’m leaving. I will just  7   my things and go out of the window. I don’t care that it’s   8  . I don’t care. I’ll leave and go somewhere  9  it never rains and nobody ever yells. Oh, whom am I kidding?  10   I’m old enough to know that there is no such place. People always yell, especially at kids. I’ll just go live by  11  , in the woods. In that case I’d better bring a flashlight（手电筒）. It feels like I’m in a shower. The rain is  12  down my face and into my eyes. It feels like someone who is in  13  of rain is washing away all the badness from the yelling and  14  me to start again. I’m tired, but I can’t stop running. If I do, my dad will  15  me and take me back to the yelling again, I think that I’ve gone far  16  . They’ll never find me here.

       Now what do I do? There’s  17   here to eat and I’m cold. Oh, well, I might as well just go home. I knew this would happen in the end. Well, I’m back. I hope that nobody  18  I was gone. It’s morning now but I don’t think that anyone’s awake yet. I’ll just sneak in（偷偷进入）through the window. I’ll  19   out of my wet clothes and into my pajamas（睡衣）. Now, into bed.

       Maybe tomorrow will be an  20  day.
