Ruby Sheridan - a star is born

A little superhero

9 years later. Cheryl is 9 years old and Jolene is 16 years old. Cheryl is in her room and tries to write something on a paper. Suddenly the door is open and her big sister is coming in
"Hey Cheryl...uhm..what are you doing?"
Cheryl looks to her:"I try to write my autograph, because I want be later a superstar."
Jolene laughs short and walks closer to her:"Cheryl I said it to you hundret times. This is not easy to be a superstar. Superstars are only the best people in the world with a great voice. Like Ella Fitzergerald."
Cheryl sighs:"But I can sing good. My teacher in music told me, that I have a great voice."
Jolene strokes over her hairs:"I know she told that. But she told that to you so that you are motivated to do something at school."
She strokes over her hand and Cheryl looks sad and nods only.
"Anyway." Says Jolene "I go now with my friends to a disco. Dad and mum have a fight for the 4 time this week. And I don't want that you go to the livingroom okay? I want that you are save. Do you understand me?"
She go back to the door. Cheryl looks behind her and nods. Jolene smiles:"Okay when its something run to the disco in front the park okay? Then see you later!"
Then she go out and Cheryl looks out from the window how Jolene walking next to the street. She stands up and go to the mirror and makes a circle so that her pink flower dress fly to the side. Then she sings silent a song:"It seems that every time
I make a date
I know from the start
Someone's gonna break the date
And break my heart..."
Suddenly hears Cheryl the screamings from her parents and even though Jolene forbid that to do this, she go to the stairs and walking down. She is humming continue silent the song and leans on a wall next to the livingroom. She looks with an one eye to the room and sees what's going on there.
"You drink in the last time, no since many months alcohol! My God understand that Maxim, I want see you the old Maxim. The old Maxim who I met." Says Catherine.
Maxim drinks, since he is kick out from his job and that's why a person without work, many alcohol. From morning til evening. Because of he is aggressive, they fight more and more. Catherine is already afraid in front of her own husband and she don't know what to do. Maxim is again aggressive as Catherine said that.
"Shut the fuck up! I don't care how you feel!" His voice slurps really much and his balance is out of control. Suddenly he hit her own wife on her cheek. Catherine screams short and Cheryl scares a bit as she saw that and leans back afraid against the wall. Maxim takes Catherines hands
:" huh?! What do you want now? Do you want call the police or what?"
He shoves her on the couch and presses her against it and sits then on her legs.
"MAXIM!" screams Catherine "Maxim! Please Stop! Please!" She almost cry and screams again as he hurt her again.
Cheryl wants help her mum and runs then in the livingroom:"Stooooop! Dad! Stop! Don't hurt mum please!"
Catherine is surprised about her reaction but she screams:"Cheryl! Run away he can hurt you!"
Maxim turns around to Cheryl and walks to her:"you shut up useless kid! Should I kill you?"
Cheryl runs away to find anything  so that she can knock him out. She find nails and lies them on the floor and takes then a broom. Immediately she hides behind the stairs and Maxim runs over the nails and screams really loud. He hold his feets because of the pains and Cheryl get the chance and runs to him. Now she hit with the broom really much on his head so that he fall unconscious on the floor. Cheryl breaths really much as she see that and falls the broom on the floor. Immediately she runs to the telephone and circle the numbers so that she calls the ambulance "Hello? Here is Cheryl Sarandon. My daddy hurt my mommy and she is bleeding. Please come. Uhm..uhm... San Francisco Street 5 34423. Thank you!" Then she runs to her mum "Mommy! Mommy! Everything okay?" She sits next to her.
Catherine lies her hand on her forehead and sighs deep and looks to her "Yes...I am.." she lies her hands on Cheryl's cheeks "are you okay?"
Cheryl nods "I call the ambulance...for you." Catherine looks surprised and strokes with her thumbs over her cheeks "do you really call the ambulance?" Cheryl nods. On her cheeks rolling down tears because of the pains but she is proud of Cheryl too and makes them away "thank you honey." Then she hugs her and sighs deep....
