Jennifer Lawrence was just an ordinary girl, with a family crisis, trying to cope with life. That's normal, no family can be perfect. After Jennifer's father left, her mother had been thrown into a sort of stage, where she did nothing, just sat on her bed crying. When Jennifer managed to get her up, not only did her mother change, but Jenny did, too. She became more independent, she became more out-going, she became popular. Never became a bully, she always helped those who were bullied, stated the good points in someody, ut never the bad. Sometimes, people walked all over her- she had changed too much to notice....
It wasn't dark on this Wednesday afternoon, although it was in winter, and so it should be getting dark around that time, it wasn't. For some unnatural reason, Jenn had only one explanation for that- it was unnatural- it was light still. That was perfect for Jennifer, she loved to snow, so when it began to rain down in a shower of little snowflakes, she eyed them, watching them dance to the floor. There was no need for any more snow, after all, there was already snow blanketing the ground. Sparkles in the snow flakes dazzled Jennifer's eyes with intense beauty- 'mother nature's' beauty.
Jenn had never considered herself as 'pretty'. She knew her mother was pretty, and although her mother was only 33- she did not look it. Jennifer quite resembled her mother, but in a different light. Her mother had wavy black hair that was never frizzy, always so very silky, with a pale face and dark green eyes- Jenn however had light green eyes, straight hair that never had a kink in it- they shared the same face however. If ever Jennifer's mother decided to straighten her hair, if her and Jenn went out together, they would be asked if they were sisters. Jenn's mother did not look her age, she looked about 26.
All Jenn needed was some milk from the corner shop. She didn't know the staff who worked their personally, but they were always very nice. Trudging through the snow, she edged forward towards the shop, watching the banners outside flap in the wind-not only was it snowing, it was windy, too. Her hair was tucked neatly inside her hood to stop it getting attacked by the snow. On her head she wore a bobble hat with them plaits coming down the side of her head. The ones that you can tie. Jenn always left hers undone however. The sound of her beige Ugg boots treading into the snow was like the sound of an egg cracking - it went through Jenn, just like when a cat scratches down a blackboard, the sound goes through you. Jenn knew she shouldn't be long, it was only some milk she needed, although she'd probably get a Cadbury's chocolate bar as a treat.
Attempting to swing the door open to the corner shop, the wind pushed a force against the door so strong. Jenn was having none of it. With a loud, aggressive groan arising in her throat, she swung the door open with all her might, her knuckles turning white as she gripped the handle ever so tightly. Her purple hoodie stood out against what everybody else was wearing - proper ski stuff. Jenn just wore a hoodie and jeans- that was simply all she needed. Of course, she had a top on underneath. The shop was deserted, apart from a black woman at the counter reading a book peacefully. When she looked up, Jenn smiled politely at her. "Hello," Jenn spoke, her angelic, melodic voice so soft and touching. Striding carefully over to the milk- her boots were sort of slippy from snow- she eyed which milk she should have, before glancing back at the chocolate, licking her lips.
Swiftly snatching the milk from the milk-shelf, after checking the dates and price- she didn't want out of date milk- she whisked herself away to the chocolate isle. "What should I have?" She whispered to herself, knowing that an Cadbury's chocolate was a dream. Picking out on a classic Wispa, she made her way back to the counter, her boots squeaking annoyingly. "Hello," she repeated, placing the milk and chocolate on the counter. Opening her brown leather bag, that matched her Ugg Boots, she with drew her purse, rifling around until she found a five pound note. "That'll be one pounds and thirty pence." The black woman requested, and Jenn passed her the five pound note. Jenn guessed that the woman was called Sunita, by the badge on her sari. When Jenn had her items, paid for and her change back into her purse, she left the shop.
It was time to go home, but it was really getting dark now, so Jenn wondered whether she should take the short cut- the alleys. Jenn had heard stories about those alley ways, hence the reason why she hardly ever went there, why she tried to avoid them as much as she could. Sighing, she mustered up the strength to tell herself that she was going to storm through the alley-ways like it was her own home. Some of the stories included abuse, sexual abuse, criminal offence, drug-dealing, stuff as far as murder. Maybe Jennifer was going to be luckily and get away from the hiding culprits of what everyone called 'The Alley-Way Crime Of 2011'. Quickly, her eyes dropped to the floor as she carried on walking towards the alley.
