My Quiet Escape
The loud, deafening sound of sirens blast by me seconds before I open the door to my house. Once inside, three rumbustious boys are running around screaming off the top of their lungs. The earsplitting sound of the garbage disposal running as my mother does the dishes. My father blaring the Television, watching his favorite team play their rival.

Two squashy burgundy rectangular pillows and one firm cream colored small pillow sits in the middle. One red sheet lays across the whole bed and under the pillows. The second sheet is the same color as the small pillow and lays on top of the red sheet. Lastly, there is one red and
