THE SCAR THAT NEVER BLED

|THAT FU6KER IS DEAD|

November 12th 1977

I woke up hearing my bed side phone going off. I roll over and rub my eyes . I thought hearing a phone ring was from my dream but no. I grab the phone saying hello, while leaning back against my bed drama

"Hey Marliyn"

"Robin?!" I shoot up with a smile

"Hey, uh I got someone here for yea"

"Who?!"

"Come over to my place" the line ends

I get out of bed, hopping into my jeans and slipping on a black zip up. I go under the stairs and open the door that lead to the basement. I wanted to get my skateboard. I entered the basement usually it was dark but luckily for the sunlight beaming through the tiny windows down there it was bright..kinda. I walk down the creaky steps, about to step enough step until I trip over my pants and fall. I yelped out while I tumbled down the stairs...well that's one way to go down the stairs

Good way to start off the morning. I get up from the ground and began to look for my skateboard. Damn I don't remember it being this dusty, I coughed and a squeeze came out of the amount of dust. There was a bunch of trash bags, and old broken lamp, a broken bike and other random old broken stuff and just the washing machines. I always hated basements ever since I was 8.

"Aha!" I called out, finally finding my skateboard. I went up the stairs and I opened the door. And slowly peaked my head out, looking at the door ahead . I gently shut the door hoping to God I wouldn't run into my father

I guess my prays were answered because I got out of the house. I immediately run to Robins after that. Getting to Robins was always easy I found out there was a short cut. To his house

I knock on the door. And he answers straight away and allows me in

"So why'd you invite me over?" I said

"Because..turn around"

I furrowed my eyebrows at him weirdly. But I turned around. There I saw Vance. I gasped out, running towards him, giving him a hug

"I missed you so much V"

"Alright now, don't suffocate me" he chuckled

I turned around to face Robin "how-

"Diego. When you and I went to visited him. I slipped him Diegos number, so if he needed help when he gets released"

"I tried to call the house first but no one answered" Vance explained. "How's dad, is he back?"

I turned back to him. "Oh, Uhm yeah. He got relased a little over a week ago"

Suddenly his eyes went to my neck and he got a worried expression on his face

"What happened to your neck Mar?" Vance says. Which got Robins attention too

I realized "oh it's nothing. I just scratched my self in my sleep"

"That doesn't look like a scratch. It looks more like a bruise" Robin says "did someone choke you?"

"I'm fine Robin!"

Vance stormed out of the house. I immediately followed him

"Vance, Vance where are you going!"
