Shadows

Chap 2

I woke up to my stomach growling like an angry dog. I slowly got up, my mucsels in my legs still sore.
I quietly snuck down the hall, seeing only my little brother in the living room. Watching some cartoon on the tv. His shaggy long brown hair partly covering the fresh bruise on his forehead.
I sighed and walked to the kitchen, he was just sitting there, his eyes red from crying. I did feel bad for him but he was nothing but a stranger to me.
I pulled out a rotten apple and ate some, it being the only food that I could find.
"Can I have some?" I looked over at Malachi who was watching me with wide eyes. My ocean blue eyes met his forest green eyes.
I sighed and gave him a piece, I didn't he would've gone hungry.
I slowly sat down on the couch hearing loud and heavy steps coming down the hallway.
Stepmonsters awake...

I'm sorry it's short ;-;
