EVER SINCE That night, it's been a while since the bruises healed. It took at least a few weeks to heal.

I haven't showed up to school for those following weeks. I needed time to heal since my dad didn't want to get in trouble or arrested for child abuse.

I sat in my room, hugging my legs.

I heard the door open, I quickly lifted my head up to see my sister.

A sigh of relief left my lips.

"Hey..are you alright.. ?" She questioned me. I felt her rub me on my back.

I glanced at her, still showing a small bruise on my face from weeks ago. It still hasn't healed yet.

She gently sighed under her breath. I felt her soft fingers brushed up against my bruise.

I felt a small stinging sensation. I heard her sigh..

"I'm sorry..I should've helped." She apologized. I fixated my attention onto her.

"It's okay.." I reassured.

She slightly nodded.
