Jake and I became angry, which led to an even more rebellious personality. We had started running away from Breeton House on a regular basis and lost all faith in the very adults who were taking care of us. Every time we ran away we were always caught, and brought straight back, and subsequently stripped of all privileges. None of that mattered any more as far as we were concerned—we had been stripped of our family and had nothing left to lose.

As stripping our privileges was not acting as a deterrent, it was decided that every time we absconded from Breeton in the future, the privileges of the other children would be taken away as well. This was a very clever decision on their part, as for a while this did make us think twice about running way. We felt like no one understood why we were behaving so badly. We would refuse to do our chores, and we would make our way onto the high rooftop and throw stones off the building. We just wanted to be understood, we needed to be heard. Jake and I refused to go to school and were soon suspended, as we would just walk out of the premises as soon as we had registered our name at assembly. We would then walk into the city center. When lunchtime came round and the hunger kicked in, we would swipe some apples outside the front of the grocer’s shop, running down the street as fast as we could as not to get caught.
