Trusting the forbidden

Don't mess with me

I got downstairs to eat breakfast and leave immediately, but my dad prevented me. 

"Where do you think you're going?", he asked me angry. Why he said it like that? Oh, that's not going to pass to you mister.

"Oh, did you understand that your fake sweet little attitude will change nothing and you decided to come with a new one, more scary?!", I said ironicly rolling my eyes and avoiding him. He grabbed my hand and turn me around so I was facing him. My eyes widened and a small aouch came out of my mouth.

"Enough! I will not take this anymore. Stop being stubborn and start living with us as a family!", he said angry. I hadn't realize that in the kitchen it was Austinl looking at us terrified of what it could happen. He didn't want to lose his father again but he didn't understand. He hurt us, he left us alone with no money. I thought I could handle that situation and we could live happily ever after but now I'm sure this was far away from us.

"You call that a family? Family is about caring for each other and not leave when you face a problem!", I said without leting him answer and closed the door behind me. I was feeling so bad that I couldn't eat my breakfast so I dropped my fruit and started walking.

I went straight to the park to look for Peter. I didn't know why I was feeling so desperate to talk to him. I didn't even like him at first. I couldn't take it anymore, I wanted to tell him the truth, that I didn't have a choice with Tyler and I was sorry. But it wasn't that easy because if Tyler finds out that I told him the whole truth I'm dead, and so is Peter.

I reached the park and saw a group of hobos there talking and laughing and I felt a pintch as I miss those meetings and having a talk with a friend. I kinda saw Peter but I couldn't call him as he was with his friends. I started to walk away when someone grabbed my arm and pulled me.

"Hey, Rose", said Diego and smiled at me friendly. "What's up with you?"

"Hey, nothing much, just came by to talk to Peter but I can see he's busy.", I said trying to look casual and relaxed.

"Right", he said and winked. "Um, have you seen Amy? She doesn't answer my calls and I went at her house about an hour ago, she's not there.", he said kind of anxious.

"Don't worry she'll be somewhere with Lisa probably", I said trying to make him feel more sure as he was worried. "Anyway, tell Peter I came by. See ya!", I said. I turned around and I heard some hobos yelling and laughing out loud. I turned my head to look what was going on.

"Look it's Rosemary, Tyler's girlfriend. Hey Rose! Wonna go out tonight? Or at my place?I heard you're very good in bed.", said a guy next to Peter. Peter looked away when I faced him. I turned my face to Diego and he looked confused like he didn't understand what was going on. "Oh, come on sweetness, don't play it difficult, we all know you're an easy whore, but don't be a bitch.", said another boy smirking.

What was happening? Why were they calling me slut without a reason? What did they know? My eyes were starting to feel wet and my legs couldn't stand me anymore. I wanted the earth to open and swallow me down that moment. Rage filled my head and I went over there to ask for explanations. "What did you just say to me?", I asked him angrily. What was he going to do? I wasn't scared of anything and of course I wasn't scared of some stupid hobo-guy.

"Be careful how you talk to me you shameless slut!", he said and I slammed his face with all my force.

"Nobody talks to me like that", I shouted at his face. I saw his eyes sparking with fire and then he punched my face making me fall down. My lips were bleeding as he punched me there and left me lying on the ground.

I started running until I reached the bus station to look for Amy. I sat at the bench and put my head in my hands feeling horrible about myself, wanted to disappear. Tears were falling from my eyes mixed with blood and I couldn't stop them.
