I was met with a whip. A whip with glass shards in it. And my father looking evilly at it. I saw my mother on the floor blood puddle surrounding her. I screamed. I regret that scream. It's not like anyone could hear me my dad sound-proofed the house when the abuse started. He said he didn't want anyone hearing our fun time. He jumped up and smiled evilly like he was excited to whip me.

*3 hours later*
I tried standing but I couldn't move somehow I had ended up in the basement. I hated my life. My back was probably bloody and bruised the rest of me was bloody I know that for sure. I tried standing again but all I could manage was a little movement out of my arms the rest was to painful to move. I was stuck here for the night. I fell into a dark sleep filled with pain and hatred.
-------------
*4th period*
I walked in late because I couldn't get myself to move one bit this morning. When I finally got up I walked into the kitchen to check for my dad and all I saw was a bloody mess on the floor from my mother. I cleaned it up and walked slowly up the steps it hurt like hell to walk but I had to get to school. I got ready in some dirty clothes that I had already worn this week because I didn't have time. I grabbed my stuff and went back down the steps my dad had left to go day drinking and I don't know about my mom. I walked to school and made it in time for forth period. When I walked in the class everyone was staring at me because I was never late ever.
I walked to the back of the room after handing the teacher a fake note and sat down. I was in so much pain I was holding in cries of pain. When it was time to go to fifth period I got up and started my slow and painful walk.
Joseph saw me in the hallway and walked up to me. And put his hand on my back. I know he didn't know but sh!t it hurt like crazy.
"Hey where did you go yesterday? When you left Maggie's with that old dude?" He said and my breath hitched. Did he see what happened? Oh god I hope he doesn't think I'm a prostitute. That'd be the last thing I want. I just shook my head as to say nothing but he didn't think it was nothing.
"Look I saw the way he grabbed you you weren't expecting it and I saw fear in your eyes and then you just followed him out why?" Joseph said he sounded worried.
I sighed I tried to think of how I could say "let's find Ryder so he can interpret what I said" but I knew that was the problem. I instead just pointed to a boy and spelt Ryder in the air. He nodded his head.
"If you're trying to say Ryder then follow me." Joseph said and lead me out of the crowded hallway. And then we went outside to find Ryder.
