Chapter 7 (Emily)

It was day fifteen and I had a ton of work to do. First I had to clean the whole house, which included the six bathrooms, and nineteen bedrooms, plus the kitchen and living room. Alex really had me working like was said in my one dream by him and Evil. I had not heard from any of my friend's and would really never eat. I only had twenty-four hours to actually clean all six bathrooms, and all nineteen bedrooms. If I did not clean all those up to par of Alex he would yell at me and hurt me.

I hated myself for actually following Alex, I was becoming one of his minions. One of those kids who sat with him all the time during dinner. I did not really fear him I just could not say anything to him, if I did he would beat me for speaking against him. So I guess you could say I did fear him, I feared being beaten by him.

At about five p.m. I had cleared all six bathrooms, and five of the bedrooms. I even left a note for Bri in her bedroom, hoping she would read it and get back to me that same day, and she did, but by that time it was well past six p.m. She even said that we could talk alone if I wanted. I told her I would like that and we met in her room to talk.

I told her about what Alex had me doing just so I could not spend time with my friends, and she said that I should not do the work.

"That is the problem, I have to do the work," I told her, "If I do not then I get in trouble. He beats me Bri."

She looked mad when I told her that but soon she calmed herself down enough to speak, "He really is trying to separate you from us then isn't he?"

"Yea, he is." I said, "And sadly it looks like it is working, I do not have time for my friends I can not eat dinner till later that night, and am up most the night trying to finish all the work. If I do not finish he screams while you are all asleep. I even have marks from what he had done to me last night." I finished, pulling up my left arm sleeve which I had covering all my marks.

There was about eight of them, all black and blue and they all looked horrible. Some where cuts, some where of hand prints but they all just did not look good. I hated them, I hated everything he had done to me.

Bri i believe thought the same thing because she just stared at them for what had seemed like hours before she even said anything, "He seriously did this to you last night?"

I nodded.

"Why didn't you tell anyone." She asked still never taking her eyes of the marks on my arm.

"I could not." I said, "I was not able to be near anyone."

"But what about your message?" Bri asked, "You could have told me then."

"I was afraid that he would find it." I admitted as I tilted my head away from her in my own shame.

She nodded, "I could understand that, but what could he possibly do if you did that? What would he do that would be so bad if you actually went and told someone?"

Sighing I went to close the door of her room, "How about I show you all that he has done to me, and what he said he would do to me if I ever told anyone."

"Okay," She said.

"Do not take this in a wrong way or anything," I told her as I took off my shirt to reveal a million and one bruises all over my left and right arms, and down my chest and even down my stomach. A million and one bruises that hurt, a million and one bruises that Alex had given me all in one night for not following him and his rules.
