Testing Love

Chapter 5 - Worthless

*Cassie POV*

After I ran away from that music store I ran until I bumped into somebody. I looked up to see who it was and it was Sarah and her little followers. Sarah laughed and looked at me. She looked right in my eyes and I looked right into hers. What I see in her eyes are not good.

"Oh look it you guys its Cassie the school whore." Sarah said laughing with her little followers.

"You humiliated me in front of everyone. Now here's payback." Sarah said.

The next thing you know I fell her first connect with my cheek. I hear her and her group of friend grab my arm. They took me somewhere. I looked around and saw the cement floor. I looked around to see where I am. It was a alley. I saw a pair of high heels along with three more. Sarah and her followers where kicking me and punching me. I finally felt no more pain coming towards me body. I guess they left me her

"Just Great." I said in my mind sarcastically.

When I finally had the courage to move and get up I walked to my house. I saw the music store and looked up at it. I want to go in there but then maybe that boy would ask questions. And I don't fell like answering those questions. I looked down and saw a pair of green eyes look at me. Oh god those green eyes are gorg-. Wait what am I talking about.

I looked down at my feet and went walking to my house. I finally reach my front door and opened it. There was nobody home. Why was nobody home? Oh yea I skipped school. I set down my bag on the kitchen counter and made why way to the bathroom. I washed my hands and my face which was still in pain from getting punches thrown at me.

I looked at me and I had and busted lip and a black eye. I look horrible. I decided to stop looking at me or I would become scared looking at myself. I walked backed to the living room and turned on the T.V . I boiled up some water and took out a green tea packet. I poured my water into a cup and got splash by the hot water on my hand and arm.

"BLOODY FUCKING HELL!" I yelled. I put my cup and boil water down and turn on the cold water. I sigh and turn it back off. Today is a worst day ever.

I decided to go to bed. This day is officially the worse day ever.

I woke up by Veronica jumping on my bed.

"Sissy get up!" she yelled.

"Come on lazy butt. Get up!"

"Okay Okay I'm up." I said.

I tried to cover my face for she couldn't see my black eye and busted lip. I didn't want to show her big sister is weak. Even though I am, I didn't want to show her I am. I made sure she left and got up from my bed. I pulled out make up and put then everywhere that looked black or purple. I decided for my lip I would pretend to bump into something.

I went to where Veronica was sitting and sat next to her. She looked up at me and smiled. I pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear and smiled. She looked just like my mom and I looked like my father. Everyday I look at Veronica she reminds me of my mother.

Tessie place a bowl of spaghetti in front of us. I looked at the plate and dug right into it. I was starving. I finish my bowl and cleaned my face. I got out a tub of ice cream and scopped me a peiece in a cup.

"Ice cream!" Veronica screamed.

"What is it with you yelling today." I laughed while she just shrugged.

"Give me some ice cream." she demanded.

"No." I said to play around.

"Please?" she asked again.

"No."

"Sissy can I pwease have ice cweam?" she did the puppy eyes. 

"Yes." I gave in.

What her eyes get huge like a little puppy. Who can say no to that face?

I scooped her ice cream and gave her some. She sat back down where she was sitting and ate her ice cream.

"Done." Veronica said. 

"Okay go watch some t.v with auntie and I will do the dishes." I said to Ronnie. 

"Okay sissy." and like that she left. 

I sighed and put my hair into a ponytail. I washed the dishes and said goodnight to Larissa. I took Ronnies hand and led her up stairs. I picked out My Little Pony PJ's and she changed into them. She laid in her bed and I tucked her into bed. I got out a book and read it to her. She drifted off to sleep in the middle of the book. 

I closed the book and got up. I looked at Ronnie and she looked a lot like my mom. The eyes, he smile, laugh, everything. I smiled of the thoughts of my mom. I looked like my dad. I frowned that I looked a lot like my dad. 

Why would he just leave my mom? When I was 11 I remembered them loving each other. The look in his eyes when he looked at my mom. It was love. Why would he just leave? 

I sighed as I put away the book. I shut the door quietly trying not to wake up Veronica. I walked downstairs and walked into the bathroom. I striped off my clothes while humming a lullaby. My mom's lullaby when she put me asleep. I turn on the water and waited for it to heat up. I touch the water to make sure it was the right temperature. I washed my hair and my body. I turned off the water and dried my body carefully to make sure the bruises wouldn't hurt more. 

I walked to the mirror and looked at myself. Oh good I looked horrible. Why does this have to happen to me? I cried at how horrible my life is.
