*the next day (still in the past)*

——————————————————————————

Max woke up feeling really sore. She slowly slid off her bed, almost collapsing. She frowned then wobbled to her closet. She picked something out to wear since her step brother is coming today and her mother would probably yell at her for meeting her step brother in a oversized shirt with nothing under besides her underwear.

This was what max got out of her closet, she then took off her oversized shirt and replaced it with the brown sweater, she then slipped on the skirt and zipped it

"MAXINE, HONEY! COME MEET YOUR BROTHER!" Her mother shouted from down stairs. "OTAY! COMIN!" max shouted back. She had to stand on her tippy toes to reach the door handle. Once she got it open, she skipped through the hallway and then down the stairs.

"so maxine, this is your brother billy." max's mother told her. "Hai!" Max said to the older boy, smiling happily. "uhm, hey?" the older boy said rudely. "maxine, introduce yourself." max's mother said, pushing her shoulder. She frowned. "um.. my name ish maxine.. i four!" max said proudly, showing him four fingers. She just turned four a week ago."um, cool i guess." billy said, not interested. "billy, introduce yourself and be nice." Neil firmly told his son. "ugh fine! my names billy, i'm fourteenth." billy said, rolling his eyes. "okay, maxine! it's your nap time." her mother told. "bu-but, i don wanna!"
"maxine. Come on." her mom demanded, picking her up.
"NO! LET ME DOWN!" max yells, tears entering her eyes.
"no. It's your nap time, rather you like it or not." she said firmly. "but- but i don wanna go sleep!" max replies, tears falling from her eyes. (oMg that rhymed.) Maxs mother changes the way she was holding max, now holding her in a cradle way. "max, honey. We have to get you to sleep, you have your first day of pre-school tomorrow." her mother said, wiping the tears falling down her daughters face. Max pouted. "otay.." max replied, putting her small arms around her mothers neck, and burying her face in her chest. Once in her room, the mother placed the four year old in her bed. "Goodnight my love."
"night mama.."

1 hour later.

Max could not sleep. She quietly slid off her bed and wobbled towards her door, tip toeing so she could reach the handle, before walking out. She quietly made her way downstairs. Before she could go to the kitchen, she froze. Neil was sitting on the couch, beer in his hand, watching tv. He turned his face to her. "what the fuck are you doing here!?" he asks firmly. "um.. i-i cant slweep.." she says nervously, fiddling with her fingers. "does it look like i give a fuck?! get your ass to bed!" he yells at her. She flinches. "bu-but.. i no tired!" she tried, before getting a slap to the face. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked up at him, scared. "i-im sowwy.. i can go back upstair.."
"great. Now get your ass upstairs and go to bed!"
"i cant.." she whispered.
"what was that?!"
"i say otay." max said, running back upstairs. While she was running, she accidentally slipped and face planted into the stairs, she shakily lifted her head up, her lip quivering, with tears in her eyes. She quickly got back upstairs and ran into her room, closing the door and collapsing into her bed, crying.

A few minutes later, max still could sleep because her head was pounding. She got off her bed and wobbled to the bathroom. She took her step stool and looked in the mirror. There was a big cut on her forehead with dry blood around it, and a slap mark on her cheek. Maxs eyes filled with tears again, but she held them in. She tried washing the blood away but it stung too much, so she left it like that. She went to her closet to change into something comfortable.

she picked out these pajamas and began to change. Once she was done, she was ready to try to sleep again, that was until she saw something peeking out of her closet, she went to it and grabbed it. It was a stuffed bunny with a cape on it. Max slightly smiled at it before hugging it. She took the bunny to bed with her and got under the covers, cuddling the soft toy. This time she actually fell asleep, all thanks to super bunny.
