Chapter 179- 197

In that night Christopher decides to go to London to live with his Mom because that´s the only realistic possibility in his eyes. But befor he leaves he goes over to Mrs Alexanders house to ask her if she can take care of Toby while he is away but when she tries to convince him to stay and talk to his Dad he just turns around and runs back to his house to get some stuff together (like his Dads bank card, for which he knows the PIN number) and run away for good. He decides to take a train to London because he knows how everything works in a train station due to a little toy train station he used to play with as a child. The problem is just that he doesn´t know where the train station is so he decides to go to his school first and then ask Siobhan or somebody else. But when he gets there he sees his Dads van and keeps on walking because he is scared that his Dad might find him. So he is forced to ask a stranger where the train station is and after he still doesn´t know where it is for sure he starts to walk in a spiral until he finally finds it.
At first Christopher is overcharged with all the stuff going on in this big station so he sits down somwhere and thinks about some math problem to calm himself down. When he looks up again he sees a policeman who asks him whether everything was alright. He tells him that he wants to take the train to London to go live with his Mom and when he says that he doesn´t have a ticket yet the policeman shows him where the ATM is so that he get some cash and buy himself a ticket. After the woman in the ticket office told him which way to go and the policeman told him to call his Mom if there was any problem he goes where he was directed to and enters the train to London
