Family Comes Home For Christmas

Chapter 7: Family Comes Home For Christmas

        While I was out shopping for family, because I'd like to think that they would come home for Christmas but they never come here so I am shopping when I probably should be in school, but today I just wasn't feeling it, so I didn't go to hell today.

          I heard arguing behind me but I just ignored it because I figured that it would just go away because some couple was arguing or mother and her kids, but it finally just got to me, I was going to yell at whoever was arguing but when I turned around I never expected to see my friends and Zach standing right there.

          "What are you guys doing here?" I asked them.

          "You never showed up to school today... Lil and we just figured you would either be here or at home, but we checked your home and you weren't there, so here we are" Alex said.

            "So you decided to come and see if I was at the mall? but why? and why the fuck is Zach here?" I asked.

           "Why I'm here is because there has been killing of gangs and it's like our type of gangs Lil I wanted to make sure you were alright, plus I wouldn't let them leave if I didn't go with them" he replied.

            "Is that true?" I said looking at my friends.

           "Yeah it is Lil" Cassie said looking down in shame.

          I just laughed.

         "It's fine, plus no one can kill me, they would be the only one that ends up dead not me" I said truthfully.

           "Your right Lil" Ryan said.

           "Is that so?" Zach asked disbelieving me.

            "Yeah if you have a problem with it than, just leave Zachary no one is stopping you from leaving" I said going to punch him, but he stopped me.

             I didn't look shocked that he stopped me, but I kept my face blank of emotion and twisted my wrist in his "death grip" but I am almost just as strong as him so it doesn't hurt me that much. He looked shocked that I could move my wrist in his grip. I then put his arm behind his back and said.

             "Believe me now?" I asked.

           "Yeah" he said.

      ****Couple weeks later****

           It was the 23rd of December now close to Christmas, so when I got home from shopping again, I see Ian my brother outside the door was a shock to me.

           "Ian?" I said disbelieving that he's here.

          "Yes now Lil you need to change clothes because our family is in there and they are expecting the good girl not this bad ass look right now so you need to change like now" he said urgently.

           "Ian I always come prepared I have a change of clothes in my car, because you never know when you are going to need them" I said and ran to my car with the shopping bags.

           "You are always prepared Lil and it never creases to amaze me" he said shaking his head at me.

         After I have changed into the clothes my family expects to see me wearing, you see my family knows I get good grades and think I am popular at school when really they only see one side of me, when really I am just doing this to protect them from what really is going on in my life, like getting bullied and then being in a gang and then being the prefect daughter to them.
