I woke up to light shining in my eyes. Damn, why does the sun have to be so bright. It ruined such a good-ish dream. I grabbed my phone from the bedside table and turned it on. 3 messages from Lilly already.

6:03am
I got out of bed and went down to my father's room
Knock! Knock!.
"Come in!" He yelled. "Father, I need to go back to mom's. I have a project to do." He looked at me. "Eh, ok. I don't really care. You have been a problem since you came with your 'eat healthy' and shit." Oh well I don't really care. He can die from unhealthy food and I'll just say, 'told you so' at his grave:D. "Mk. I'll go pack. Byeee!"
I left his dirty room and entered the spare. I packed my bag and zipped it up. "I'm leaving." I said at his door and left.
On the way back, I got a cup of coffee and a muffin. It tasted soo good, the backery's around here have the best muffins.
I entered the driveway of my mom's house. She looked at me from the window with a shocked face. Ohhh, I forgot to tell her I'm coming backkk. Damnit.
"Hey mom." I said. She walked right up to me, so close. "What the hell are you doing here. You're supposed to be at your father's house!" She yelled. I saw one of the neighbours look out her window. That women always looks for drama around here. "My friend messaged me about a project that the teacher assigned to us. It is in pairs and we are paired up, so I came back so I could do our project. Plus, dad is such a messy person. He got mad at me for telling him to eat healthy. I can not stay with him any longer than a day." I said. She does agree with the last part. That was part of the reason they divorced. "Fine. Hurry up and go to your friends. I'm cleaning the house up. I don't want you messing it up." She said as she went back into the house. Mom is a clean freak while me dad is a dirty freak(?).
I grabbed my bags and put them neatly in my room. I am going to unpack them later.
I grabbed my CA book and headed towards my room door. I walked into the kitchen and said goodbye to my mom and left.
"OMGGG YOU TOOK FOREVER!!!" Lilly said as I arrived at her house. "Sorry Lil. It was a long drive and I had to explain to my mom why I'm back since I forgot to say." She nods in understanding. "Ok, cool. Well the project isn't too bad. We just have to create a sculpture of either a bird or a famous person's face." She said with a long saigh at the end. "Bird most definitely." She nods in agreement. We are bad at sculpting.
We headed to her room and sat on the bed. "We will start just now. Let's just search up some birds that will be easy to sculpt." I nod and start searching on Google and Pinterest.
30 minutes pass and we finally found a bird. "That looks easier that the rest. Let me get sculpting tools and clay, then we can start. Ok?" She said, getting up from her bed. "Ok, sounds like a plan. I'll design a 3D model on my tablet. It will make the project easier." She nods and we both do our tasks.
After 4 hours we finished the project. "This looks amazing. I think we will get good marks on this. What do you think Al?" Lil asks. I observe it more closely. "I think this deserves at least a A mark. At most A+" she looks at me with a smile. We carefully put the project on her clean desk. "Few, I thought it was going to break for a second. We need to let it dry so don't touch it, ok?" She says with her pointed finger close to my nose. "Ok. What should we do now?" She puts down her finger and looks away. "Hmmm. I don't know. What time do you have to be home?" She asks. "Let me check, my mom never told me." She nods.
"Hey mom. I just wanted to ask. What time must I come home?" I say to her. "Before 10 pm Alex. Please don't be late." She responds. The 'please don't be late' sounded desperate. "Are you ok? You sound desperate and slightly scared when you said 'please don't be late'?" I ask. "Just don't be late. It makes me worry when you are." She replied. I heard the phone go beeep! as she puts down the phone. She may seem bad at times but she can still be a good parent. I remember one time when I was late, it was 2 years ago...
"Mom, dad, I'm going to a friend's house." I say to my parents. "Ok, your curfew is at 11pm, remember. Don't be late." Mom yells from the kitchen. Dad just scoffs. "Won't mom, Don't worry." I say back to her. She smiles and I turn to leave.
A few hours pass and it was passed 11pm. I realised it was passed my curfew and left my friends house.
As soon as I entered, I heard my mom scream. I ran to where the scream came from. My ex-step-dad, that my mom divorced before she got back with my biological dad, was hitting my mom with his hand. My dad was trying to stop him but he looked slightly drunk. I grabbed moms phone from the counter and called 911.
After 10 minutes, the police arrived. They grabbed my ex-step-dad and took him out of the house. I ran to my mom and hugged her. She pulled me into the hug more tighter. "Are you ok? Momma." She had tears streaming down her cheeks. "Yes my dear. You saved me. Thank you." She kissed my forehead and I started tearing up ad I rested my head on her chest. She rubbed my head, brushing her fingers through my hair. I closed my eyes, slowly drifting into a silent slumber...
"...lex...Alex...ALEX!" Lilly shook me out of my thoughts. "Alex, omg. Are you ok. You were staring off into space and started tearing up?" She said, rubbing the tears off my cheeks. "Sorry, I just remembered something. Before mom and father divorced." She knew about what happened so she realised what I was thinking of. "Oh... You ok?" I nod. She pulls me into a hug. A few tears roll down but only a few. "I'm sorry you and your mom had to go through that. I promise you. I'll make sure you two don't have to go through that again." I smiled at her words.
"Thank you..."
How r y'all's mental health.
Mines degrading:D, yahhhh, my school starts in a day and I don't know shit. Help
