The Other Genius

Chapter 3

Abby's POV

        I run home, it was my dad, drunk again and he wanted me home so I could clean everything.

        "Where have you been little brat?" he asked.

        "I was at school." I said and then he threw and broken bottle at e and it hit my face, I am going to have to sneak out to get stitches again probably, no matter becasue soon my mom and I will be on our own. Wait if I call the poice and show them the abuse proof they have to bring him in!

        I swiftly grab the house phone and dial 911 and then wisper into the phone behind the closed door of th bathroom.

        "911 what's your emergency?" a nice sounding woan asked me.

        "My dad has been hitting me forevor and I have had enough please help me." I said.

        "Okay I will send out an officer what is your address?" she asked.

        "5675 North Pine Avenue." I said and in 7 minutes, yes I counted, a police officer had my father in handcuffs and was calling in an ambulance for y bruises, they think I have a broken vertabrae.

        "Okay so why didn't you call before?" the officer asked.

        "I just never had to courage but just now I was hopped up on adreniline becasue he came to me at school to tell me to come home and be his little servant." I said and the officer ade quick notes.

        "Okay thank you little miss and your mother has full custody of you and your father is not allowed to talk to you unless under court supervision." he said and I smiled, my life is finally turning better.

        After another two hours my om got back from her job.

        "Where is your father?" she asked. A wide smile spread across my face.

        "He's gone and you have full custody!" I said and her face brightened up, two smiles in the same week alright!

        "How? What did you do?" she asked but I don't think she cared.

        "He made me come home from school to clean the house and so I went to clean the bthroom but I brougt the phone with me and I called the police." I said and she kept smiling.

        "Oh yeah and some bad news I have a fractured vertebrae." I said and then lifted up the botom of my shirt just  tiny bit to show a brace I have to wear.

        "Its okay honey, you'll heal." she said and kissed my forehead. I yawned it had been a big day for me, finally I am free.

        Okay I lied it was like another ten hours till my mom got home but still, it was only 8 o'clock and I was very tired.

        I went to my room and got my blanket and lied down on my blow up mattress and fell asleep.

        "Hey honey wake up rise and shine you have school." my mom woke me up, I was expecting to be woken with a blow to the face.

        "Okay good morning what time is it?" I asked

        "7 o'clock you have 2 hours to get ready and get yourself to school." she said sweetly

        I have 2 hours I only need two minutes to get dressed, I picked out a pink long sleeved shirt that said "mommas girl" on it. I got it from my aunt. They always says daddys girl on then which is not something I want to wear. I also put on some oddly patterned leggings.
