The girl that stays silent

Ch.3

i start to wake up. Feeling the cold hard floor beneath my back I start to sit up. I whimper in pain as I fall back on the floor with a groan a sharp pain that goes through my arm. I bite my tongue holding in the scream and i taste blood. I keep hold of my tongue not wanting to scream... not wanting him to come back up here. I try to get up again on the other arm making it into a standing position without screaming. I start limping to the bathroom not bothering to check the time.

I look at the mirror.. at me.

He managed to make me look worse than I already did somehow.

My face isn't bruised, but I got a busted up, swollen lip. My neck is completely purple and blue. It's really hard to breath. I say as i start to carefully pull my clothes off.

My chest is completely black and my back is too. I realized that i was hunched over which means I probably have a few broken ribs. There's bruises all down both legs. I got a small limp but its not that bad. I can manage to not lip. Hopefully.

I get in the shower careful not to fall.

I get out and dry off. Standing in front of the mirror again. I look over my body once more .

All the bloods washed off. I star to but bandages on all my cuts, and i rap my chest and stomach. finishing off I put my arm in a sling.

I go to my closet and pull out some baggy sweat pants and a long sleeve shirt and put them on. The shirt barely covers my neck but my arms are fully covered.

I say out load to myself "OK, maybe I should go to school now. I sneak downstairs an out the door.

I don't know where he was, but I don't think he was home.
