Today I'm starting my new school at moonshine high...Same old same old I decided to go for something new I put on my red crop top ,ripped skinny jeans my red converse an my trukfit snap-back , can't a girl look fresh?. I put on the finishing touches.
I was about to make my way downstairs when I heard my parents yelling
Mom: GET YO ASS OUT MY HOUSE NOW!
Chris: BITCH I OWN THIS HOUSE AND I OWN YO ASS TOO
Chris knocked my mom out. Even though she abuses me nobody touches my mother like that so I went up to Chris an gave him a smack in his face he grabbed my hair an pulled me hard that made me fell to the ground so hard I swear I was bleeding but I wasn't
Mom finally got up
Mom: Ain't nobody slapping my daughter !
Chris stormed out of the house I was afraid of him he beat me so many times I feel like I could kill him it started when I was 10 my life was miserable ever since he feels he owns me. I left the house and fixed myself I got into my car and put on the radio to hear August Alsina's "Ghetto" playing I honestly loved this song especially the singer he is so fine...
I made it to school, collected my schedule everyone was eyeing me down...do I look life a a clown doing a trick?. I stopped at my locker an some girl came at her locker she looked nice, curly brown hair, she's dark and pretty
A minute after I heard someone say "Hi"
???: Hi
Me: H hey
It was the same girl next next to my locker
??: My name's Jessie whats yours ohh your so pretty!!
Me: My name's Marie...thank you same yourself
Jessie: So what class do you have now?
Me: Uh um English
Jessie : With who?
Me: Mrs. Maya ...
A bright smile appeared upon her face
Jessie: Hey I have her too...you seem really shy tho I could see us being friends soon come on
Jessie grabbed my hand an we headed to Mrs. Maya's class I can't believe I'm already making a friend. During class Jessie an I kept passing notes and we almost got our asses caught. School is over thank god, Jess texted me
Jessbaybe: hey girl can I come over?
Damn I cant let her come over my damn parents are there you know how they are
Marielove: Uh um can I come over by u instead?
Jessbaybe: Okay
I quickly got home, as I entered my room not wanting my Mom or Chris to see me but I was TOO LATE..
Chris busted in my room
Me: Can't you knock !?!
I can see he was getting angry balling up his fist damn, my stupid mouth next thing I knew he swung across my face I held it just crying, I saw a scar
Chris: Talk to me like that again bitch I swear you don't know what your in for!
After he left I ran downstairs, my mom doesn't believe that he hits me cause she always take for him not even for her own daughter. I cant believe him and her...nobody cares
Mom: Hi hunie you want dinner?
Me: no mom I'm alright
I was tryingto hide my scar I got from Chris's slap
Mom: Marie why are you hiding your face from me!?
If I tell her she won't believe me so instead I said
Me: I just fell ma
Mom: Well alright be careful sweetie
Me: Ma can I go to a friend's house?
Mom: Sure hun
Her face lite up when I asked that... maybe its because I never had friends. I felt happy I had one tho
