When we get there, her mom greets us with a wave. They have the perfect life. I wish my family was together, and nothing would happen to ruin it! I wonder why things like this happen to people like us with so many problems already, like my brother. He's deaf. we are all still learning to sign. We just found out, but I feel so bad for him mostly because he is only 5.
But then I snap out of it by the sound of my friend waving her hand in front of my face. She asked what's wrong. I had to tell her everything. She doesn't know. Anything. So after I told her everything that's going on, she told me something.
It changed my thoughts about how perfect her life is. It's not even close to perfect. She gets abused by her dad. They act so normal around me! I would have never thought that her father did that. But that explains why she always comes to school all bruised up. She always told people that she fell down the steps,or some other excuse. I can't believe she never told me. We are best friends.
