I can’t believe this. I rubbed my eyes, but it was still there. My stomach in knots I pulled myself together and looked down, at my wrists.
I have never wished to be so terribly wrong before, never the less I was right.
My own mother cut my wrists again. From the start of my wrists to my elbows, my skin was in pieces.
The last time I had “Bitch” carved into my wrist but this time they were just lines.
Just lines.
It's pretty horrible that I'm relieved.
I tried to compose myself as tears started to fall down my cheeks. How does this happen to me?
I picked up my phone, and dialled 4. That’s Cass, my best friend on speed-dial. She’s the only person I tell this sort of stuff, she’s the only person I fully trust. No answer. Ugh, pick up. Pick up. Pick up. I dialled again.
“Hello, Cassie’s phone” A male voice answered, probably our age. Probably Cass’ new date.
“Um, hi.. This is Caitlyn. Can you ask Cassie to give me a call when you’re done with whatever.” Rude, I know but I’m not in the mood to ruin her date completely.
I went to hang up as I heard talking in the background
“Who is it baby?”
“Some Caitlyn chick, she sounded desperate.” The man who answered stated
“That ‘Caitlyn chick’ happens to be my best friend, ass hole.” She spat back. That’s Cass for you, she’s a little sensitive when it comes to how people talk about me, it’s one of my favourite qualities about her.
I couldn’t hear what he said back to that, but it resulted in Cass screaming insults and kicking him out of her house. Sometimes she goes overboard. A lot.
I heard her coming back to the room and picking up her phone
“Caity, what’s up” she asked, as if she didn’t just go on a screaming rampage and kick some guy out of her house.
“Um, Cass, can I come over” I stuttered
“As long as you tell me everything, bring Alex if you like, Jim is here.” She said in a worried tone.
Jim is Cassie’s older brother, he’s 22 and Alex loves him. He is like an uncle to Alex, whenever Jim is down he will take Alex for hours and take him to do something fun.
Anything fun.
He does it for both of us; he knows that my parents aren’t exactly great.
I didn’t even reply to her, I just hung up and went to cover up my wrists. I picked out a pair of black skinny jeans, back vans and a woolly jumper. Its multi coloured and knitted, I love it, I don’t really know why it’s way too big, but the colours make me happy and it covers bruising and scars. I’ve sort of adapted my whole wardrobe to cover my parent’s handy-work.
I walked over to Alex’s room and knocked on the door.
“Alex” I muttered under my breath
No reply.
“Alex you in there?” I questioned a litter louder.
“Hey Caity”he greeted me as he opened his door
“I’m going to Cassie’s, wanna come?” I asked politely
“No thanks”He laughed as he answered
“Jim’s down”
“Give me two minutes” He said as he ran back into his room, threw on his black vans and ran back out.
“What, you wouldn’t want to hang with me and Cass?” I joked teasingly
Alex just gave me a look that said ‘seriously Caitlyn, why would I want to do that’ and raced past me down the stairs.
Kids.
I slid down the banister and went straight out the door, as if Mum and Dad would notice we were gone; they were probably both passed out anyway.
It was a reasonable day outside so we decided to walk, it was good to get some fresh air every once in a while. Aside from that Cass only lived around the corner so what was the point in driving?
Alex was running ahead and I jogged to catch up. He always had so much energy, I don’t even understand.
“ALEX STOP FOR A SECOND.” I yelled out to him as he reached the road
He just turned around and gave me a little devious-nine-year-old smile. I sighed.
“Just watch the road mate” I squealed as he stepped out.
He was walking backwards and wasn’t watching a thing.
Idiot.
“ALEX” I screamed out as I saw a car heading towards him, what a dick driver, clearly not watching the road. I had a sudden adrenaline rush. The type you hear mothers talk about when they have pulled cars off their baby’s. I sprinted forward and shoved Alex off the road and tried to get off the road myself. The car never showed any signs of slowing down. I was a split-second too late. I felt myself being hit and fly over the windshield. The impact was unbearable. The car must’ve stopped because I felt myself hit the ground as everything went black.
