Tommy's POV

"TOMMY!" I heard the scream from downstairs

"Yes s-sir" I stuttered

"Why aren't the dishes done?!" He asked aggressively.

"I f-forgot" I stuttered out. My father the swung his fist to hit me directly in the face. I fell backwards but my father continued.

'Slap!'
'Kick!'
'Punch!'

After a minute or two my father suddenly disappeared and behind him I saw my friends.

"Your so weak"

"Why are we even friends with you"

"You can't even take a punch"

'BEEP'

"We're not friends or family!"

'BEEP'

"We all hate you"

'BEEP'

I jolted up and turned off my alarm. I felt myself in a cold sweat as the memories of that dream lingered. I shook at the thought of how dreams can perfectly recite the past and also twist it. My thoughts were interrupted when I remembered why I am up. I quickly got dressed and went to the bathroom. I took off my sweater leaving just my t shirt.

My work from yesterday looks pretty bad but isn't infected. My main concern is my chest, the big cuts are still infected, bleeding and dried blood coated the outside. I replaced this bandages knowing that would be a problem for later. I put back on my sweater and made my way downstairs.

Once I got to the kitchen I started a pot of coffee and quietly sat waiting for it to brew.

"Good morning!" Wilbur said cheerfully from the couch.

"Fuck, you scared me" I said after jumping. Wilbur giggled at my antics.

"Tommy, I am sorry about yesterday" Wilbur said to me. I was a little shocked by the apology but I knew he would mention it.

"No need to apologize, I shouldn't have left" I said quickly

"It's ok" he said reassuringly

"Tommy can I ask you one question" Wilbur said carefully. I thought what harm could come from one question.

"Ok" I said

"How much do you pay to support you and your dad and is it legal to pay the bills as a minor" Wilbur asked. I didn't expect such a big question but it's better than other things he could have asked.

"I pay for mortgage, power, wifi, and sewage. And it is legal cause I just give my dad the money and he pays it" I explained rather fast
