It's 6:30 am,my dad just left the house to go to "work". I have school today but I don't really want to go,as I apparently don't fit in. I just want to knock them all out,I really do. Why does my life suck? I'm almost 16 and my life's already crashing down.
It's about a half an hour walk to school and it starts at 8. I normally leave at about 7 and go to the shops before. I use my dinner money to buy food and sometimes clothes as my dad won't do it himself. I don't get it,my dad has a decent amount of money,but he won't spend any of me.
I don't eat at school as he only gives me money on Mondays so I can only go shopping on Monday.
I'm always late to school but the teachers have got use to it now so they don't tell me off.
I get to school,it's just about 8 as I walk into my tutor,everyone stops and stares right at me.
"What,has someone died?" I ask,tracking my teacher.
"NO ONE BUT YOUR LATE AND WHERE IS YOUR SCHOOL UNIFORM." My teacher screams at me.
"Are you ill or something,I've been late for years. Why do you suddenly care? As for my school uniform,my jumper is too small for me and my dad won't get me a new one."
"Well he is going to have to get you one."
"That's nice", I roll my eyes at her as I sit down.
I look at my timetable,double maths first,then I'm going home I can't spend more time here,plus my dad won't be home until 6 so he will think I spent the whole day at school.
As I walk around the corridors people keep staring at me. They have probably noticed my arms,I use to cut,a while after my mum left and my dad found out starting abusing me. Now my arms are marked with scars and bruises. Even tho it's warm in school,I slip my coat on and make my way to my lesson.
I sit down,not in my seat as the person that I have to sit next to bully's me.
The teacher calls out my name. "Mia?" Mia Deyes?"
"Yes I'm here."
"Why aren't you in your seat?"
"I don't know,maybe because the idiotic person you made me sit next to bully's me."
"MOVE NOW AND TAKE YOUR COAT OFF."
"NO,WHY THE FUCK SHOULD I?" YOUR NOT MY PARENTS YOU DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO."
"Not like you ever knew your mum anyway." Some kid blurts out.
"Shut it retard."
"Mia,get out of my classroom." My teachers asks.
"No."
"I said get out."
"I said no."
"Mia Deyes I said get out why are you still here?"
"I've done fucking nothing." I say,I walk out of the class room and out of the school building. I slide under the gate and run home, I run and run and run,I don't stop. I get home,unlock the house and slam the door behind me. My dad left his phone at home,it starts ringing, It says 'Zoe'. But who's Zoe?
I answer.
"Hello?" I say,my voice echoes around the empty house.
"Hello? Is this not Alfie."
"No,it's not."
"Who is it?"
"I'm Mia,his daughter."
"Aren't you meant to be at school?"
"Nah,half day."
"Well.... I'm your mum. I know you don't really remember me."
"Your not my mum,that's bullshit. Dad said that he never spoke to you."
"Your dad speaks a lot of rubbish."
"What's he said to you?"
"That he treats you like a princess,that he is always taking you out for lunch."
"That's a load of crap. I never eat he won't spend any money on me. He beats me,he says that I look too much like my mum. It's all because I cut after she left. I FUCKING HATE IT HERE. HELP ME." I say,I slam the phone down and go to my room.
My room use to have a lock but my dad broke it. He also bordered the window off and the light switch doesn't work. I just want to go somewhere where I don't get treated like shit.
I fall asleep for a few hours,before I know it it's half 5,I get out of my horrible school uniform and into some old trousers and a long t-shirt. My dad should be back soon, but I'm staying here.
I hear the front door open and I hear my dad mumble to himself. I hear him make his way to my room,the door flys open.
"Where is my phone?"
"I don't know do I?"
"YES YOU DO!"
He gets me from my bed and grabs me by my neck. He pins me up against the wall.
"Put me down,please."
"NO, I WON'T PUT YOU DOWN." My dad screams at me,whilst smacking my face and my arms.
"I feel like I'm going to die,please stop."
"Good you should die. I don't want you to be living here anyway.
He puts me down after hearing a knock at the door.
"I'm here for my daughter." The voice says.
"Your daughter?"
"Yes,Mia,Mia Deyes."
I'm crying in my room, so I can only really hear faint mumbles.
"I'm sorry",my dad says. "I don't know anyone called Mia Deyes,you must have the wrong house." With the he shuts the door and starts shouting.
"HOW THE FUCK DOES SHE KNOW WHERE WE LIVE MIA."
I gulp, "I don't know."
"YES YOU FUCKING DO." He walks into my room and looks down at me.
"I-I don't."
"FUCKING BULLSHIT. GET OUT MY HOUSE I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN." He slaps me.
"Your a twat anyway." I burst into tears,gather my things and run.
"Your be sorry Mia,your be sorry."
I run around town,I run into what seems like millions of people. Of course I didn't mean to. I have no money,I have no where to go. I could find my mum but I have no clue where she is.
I keep walking around the streets until I hear someone call my name.
"MIA?" The voice echoes.
I stay silent.
"Mia omg." The figure comes rushing over to me,I realise that it's my mum. I give her a massive hug.
"I'm going to take you back to my house. I don't know what your doing here but your have to tell me."
I tell her what happened at home,and how I have no where to live.
"You can stay here for a bit. But what about school?"
"School can fuck off. Can we wait until after my birthday,it's in like three days."
