TW: broken bones (idk if I need to add this but just in case lol)

Anthony POV:

I was playing at cousin Pips house after my mom told me that she liked my dad again. He's so mean!!! I don't understand how she could like him!!!

Meanwhile, Pip and I decided to play in his backyard! He has a really cool climbing tree with a real life tree house!!! It was soooo cool!

Pip showed me how to climb the tree. Such as: where to put my feet/hands and how to lift myself up. It was really fun too! My mom would never let me do this at home.

She's very.... protective... But I still love her. She's the best mom ever!!!

As I got to the last branch before I could make it to the top, Angie came out and yelled "BOO!"

I fell off the tree and landed on the ground, hard. My arm went numb and I saw Philip climbing down the tree.

I screamed in pain as soon as I realized what happened. Auntie Eliza came out of the house and rushed to help me.

Uncle Alex drove me to the hospital. Not obeying traffic laws, I may add. My arm hurt SUPER bad and I hated every second of it.

I was brought into the hospital and a nurse helped me get more comfortable. A doctor came in a few minutes later and took a look at my arm. It hurt when he touched it. He tried to move it but I screamed in pain. This was true agony.

My mom came running I to my room and sat beside me. She looked like she was crying.

"I'm sorry mom-" I started but she cut me off.

"You don't need to be sorry, it's not your fault."

She made me feel so much better. She always does. The doctor did a few X-Rays then put a cast on my arm. I got to choose which color!! I chose red obviously. It's the BEST color!!!

Yes, it's not that weird that I like red so much since my mom loves pink and my dad loves magenta. Sometimes I think he loves the color more than me.

I usually brush it off but sometimes it's hard to. My own father doesn't like me.

"You're just a mistake." He says. "Useless!" That usually makes me cry. But then he says "real men don't cry." I hated my father. HE TRIED TO KILL ME!!!
