Kenzie's POV:
My alarm starts blaring as it's time for me to wake up for school.
I get out of bed, and go to wash my face. Then I pick out a gray crop top sweater and some shorts. I put them on and put on some white slip on vans.
I straighten my hair, put on some light makeup, and brushed my teeth before I walked downstairs to eat.
As I got downstairs, I smelled the scent of alcohol, and I knew this wasn't going to be good.
I slowly walked back upstairs hoping she wouldn't notice I had gone down, but it was too late.
I was yanked by the hair all the way downstairs by my mother, Melissa.
A couple years ago my dad left, and he took my sister Maddie, but I don't remember much of her because I was really young. She got extremely depressed and became an abusive alcoholic.
"Where the hell do you think your going?" My mother slurred.
"Sschool" I stuttered.
She got even angrier that I talked back and kicked me in the stomach so hard I fell to the floor.
"Don't talk back to your mother you brat" and with that she walked away. I slowly got up, tears threatening to spill, but I pushed them back.
I grabbed a banana and an ice pack before I quickly ran out of the house and started my long walk to school.
In case you were wondering, this has been happening for years. My mother is in such a bad place she doesn't even realize she is hurting me.
As I was walking to the bus stop I spotted my best friend, Brynn.
Brynn knows that my mother abuses me, nobody else though.
I run up to her and we hug.
"Hey Kenz!" Brynn said
"Hey B" I said.
She noticed I had an ice pack to my stomach and asked "what happened?"
"I fell its no big deal" I lied and fake smiled.
She pretended to buy my lie and didn't ask anymore questions.
Soon the bus pulled up and Brynn and I got in along with the rest of the kids at our stop.

Hey guys! Hope you enjoyed the first chapter!
