It's been two days since I told my dad I was telling the police. As a man of my word I'm doing just that. "Excuse me?" I called for the nurse who soon came in. "I think I'm ready to tell you who my abuser is... just promise to keep him away from me." I said sadly. "We will, who keeps hurting you." She asked I took a deep breath. "D-dad is..." I replied as my ears go down. She looked at me in shock before speaking again "we'll tell the police right away! Don't worry Ein, he won't touch you again." She told me. I smiled before she left the room smiling back. Soon Aaron called and I picked up the phone. "Morning Strawberry!" I said happily "good morning..." he said, his voice was deeper so I'm guessing he just woke up. "You ok? You sound a little tired there." I said laughing a little. Aaron laughed a little too. "I am really tired... I have to hand in three assignments today and I didn't get them finished until last night." He replied. "Maybe you should take a nap." I told him. "Can't, class starts in two hours." He told me. "That's plenty of time for a nap." I said. "Not in collage it isn't." Aaron replied before yawning. "I love you." I told him. "I... I love you too." He replied through yawns. "Get ready for class then call me back, ok?" I instructed him. "Ok..." he replied sleepily. Soon breakfast came. "Ein." The nurse said. "Yes?" I replied eating some breakfast starting on the bacon. "Do you have another care taker you can live with? Your father is losing custody of you." She told me. I wrote down Father Frost's phone number and handed it to the lady. "Thank you." She said before leaving. I continued eating my breakfast. Once I was finished Aaron called me. "Hello?" I said. "Ein..." Aaron said in a whiny voice. "Yes Strawberry?" I replied. "I dropped my waffle..." he said sadly. I snickered a little bit "where is your waffle now?" I asked trying not to burst out laughing, he called me because he dropped his waffle? Why wouldn't he just make another one? "It's on the floor..." he replied. "Pick it up for starters." I told him. I heard him moving before he replied "I picked up my waffle." He said. He was obviously tired. "Now make another one." I told him. "I can't I don't have time!" He yelled sadly. "Then eat it!" I yelled back. "Fine! I'll eat the stupid floor waffle..." he growled before he started eating the waffle. "It doesn't have as much dirt as I thought it would..." he said tiredly. I laughed "drink some coffee or something, you're obviously tired." I told him. "Ok, I'll get back to you soon." He told me. "Alright, talk to you then." I replied before he hung up. Just as me and Aaron finished up Father Frost walked in. I smiled happily before waving. "Good morning Ein." He said walking over. He placed a hand on my head. "Are you alright? I heard about your break down, what happened?" He asked. "Zach hit me..." I said sadly looking down. He sighed before kissing my forehead. "Angry souls have a reason to be angry... but that doesn't excuse their actions. Remember this, alright?" He told me. "I will." He hugged me gently before pulling away. "I've made some arrangements to be your caretaker. Meaning you'll be coming home with me today, is that ok with you?" He asked. I nodded "that's perfect for me." I said smiling. Aaron called me back. I put him on speaker this time. He was sipping something "I got coffee." He said. Father Frost giggled a little. "Good morning Aaron!" Father Frost said happily. "Hi..." Aaron said taking another sip of his coffee. "You still sound tired." I told him. "I am..." he replied. "Take a nap." I told him. After me and Aaron argued about making him take a nap he had to start class. "Bye." He said tiredly. "Goodbye love." I replied. I got my unicorn plushy and started to leave with Father Frost after changing into some normal clothes. Once we got to his house he made me some gingerbread cookies and even decorated them to made them look like blue ornaments. I ate them up before going down stairs into my room. I locked the door to my room before sitting down on my bed. No matter what I was trying to do I couldn't get my mind off Aaron. I wanted to spend more time with him and I can't do anything fun without him. A few hours pass and Father Frost knocks on my door. I walk over and open it. "Yeah?" I said calmly. He handed me a box "the police came over to give you back your belongings from Zach's house. I've just come to give them to you." He said smiling. I smiled as well "thanks Father Frost." I replied. He nodded "I'll call you when lunch is ready, alright?" He said "ok." Was all I said in return. Soon he left and I started unpacking my things. I really didn't have a lot of stuff do I? Just my school things and some clothes. A few seconds later and Father Frost called me up for lunch. He gave me some grill cheese sandwiches with some tomato soup. I ate it up almost instantly making Father Frost laugh a little bit. "You sure do eat a lot, don't you Ein?" He asked handing me another plate. I nodded and ate the food a little slower this time. Again I'm in no need to rush. I normally ate food fast so I could leave the table and get onto washing my dishes before washing my father's but now that I don't live with him I don't have to do that anymore. After I ate I walked downstairs and laid down. My thoughts soon trailed to Aaron. What was he doing right now? I felt my pants get tight after thinking about him for a while. I sighed, standing up and locking the door before undoing my pants. Should I really do this? Is it the best option right now? I mean I could just wait for Aaron to finish school and ask him to come over... I don't think I can wait that long. I laid back down on the bed before taking a deep breath. Am I even ready for this? I ran my finger over the slit and flinched upon being touched like this. I haven't done this in awhile so can you really blame me? I started moving my hand up and down while grasping it firmly. I wish Aaron was here so I didn't have to do this myself... a few minutes later I came. I hated myself slightly afterwards. I got up and picked up my "kit". It's obviously mine considering it has my name on it and it's royal blue. I walked into the bathroom and opened it. There was several medical supplies in it so that's probably why the police didn't keep it. I slowly began searching for my knife but I couldn't find it. I began panicking, did they take it? I need it. Where is it? After I looked for a few more seconds tears began building up in my eyes. What happened to it? Why isn't it here? I could've swore I- wait. I picked up a small container that seemed to hold a bunch of bandaids. I opened it and pored it out and the handle to my switchblade fell out as well. How did I forget I put it in there? Doesn't matter, what matters is I found it. I slowly pushed out the blade from the handle.
