Short Story Of Elijah Grey's Life

Elijah Grey was a big man 6, 5 with blue eyes and blonde hair reaching his jaw, his face wrinkled from all the times he’d get furious with something…or someone. Elijah lived with his wife Bette a well-mannered wife and his 4 year old daughter Ellie. They lived in a farmhouse far away from anyone else no neighbors’ no-one. Loving parents to Ellie, but times weren’t well in the Grey household, money was becoming a serious issue and they were doing their best to conserve but nothing helped. Elijah was frustrated about their dilemma, but alas he couldn’t do anything he wasn’t a great farmer, he wasn’t even a farmer at all so no money would come from his efforts. Bette would insist they try to raise money by selling household items or consider retrying farming, but it would only anger Elijah.

Bette came into the kitchen area and all she say were empty bottles of alcohol that led to Elijah who’s been drinking “What do you think you’re doing drinking at a time like this, you should be trying to plant some crop or see what you can get for that old tractor of yours?!” proclaimed Bette who has a concerned look on her face at that point Elijah stood up fuming with rage he started bellowing and knocking things down throwing the empty bottles at Bette who had run outside to get Ellie. Ellie playing with her toys outside was snatched by her mother and they left the house on foot fearing for their safety. Hours pass it’s now midnight Elijah had finally calmed down when he realized he drove his family away he went looking for them, and they haven’t returned
