Tess's POV: I was nervous to approach my dad's apartment as I walked out of Brynn's car trying to act like I was completely fine. I walked into my dad drinking again.

Tess's dad: what the fuck dodo bird, why did you go shopping again. You know I need your help at our pizza diner.

Tess: but dad my friend took me birthday shopping. I didn't ask her she just bought me stuff.

Tess's dad: I don't give a shit if you didn't ask her, return them to her.

Tess: why won't you let me have anything my friends give me. She bought them for me.

Tess's dad: never steal anything from the mall again dodo bird you hear me? Or you'll get slammed in the wall with the hammer. That ought to teach you a lesson never to go shopping. All you are allowed to do is go to school and the pizza diner. You remember the fucking rules! No going outside except for school and the pizza joint.

Tess: I didn't steal anything dad, can I please keep the clothes, I'll never ask my friend for anything else.

Tess's dad: fine, dodo bird, but if I catch you bringing more shopping bags home with you, I'm throwing all your nice clothes away, and you'll just have to wear a sack.

I felt my dad slap me across my face leaving a scratch, I ran to my bedroom. And I locked my door. Every time I'd get clothes, I would always hide them under my mattress or behind my closet. I looked out the window and saw that weird Jim guy again...
