Monday
Y/N POV:
BEEP BEEP
My alarm. I woke up and turned it off. My mom is getting home later today and I'm planning on telling her what happened on Saturday.
I got up and went to my closet and picked an outfit.

(Not the bag, glasses, or hair)
  I left my hair down. I did my morning routine and made some breakfast. I opened the door and drove to school.
(Time skip to after drive)
  I got out of the car and everyone was staring at me. I didn't know why and I didn't care. I saw Jason, Mike, and James. I was walking toward them and I heard mumbles.
  "Do you guys know why everyone is staring at me?" I asked completely clueless.
  "When your dad gave you a 'visit', it got on the news and people found out," Mike said.
I just sighed.
"My mom probably knows so there's no need telling her," I say.
  "Everything will be fine," Jason says positively.
  "Why are you so happy?" I ask with an eyebrow raised.
He chuckles. "No reason."
I playfully roll my eyes and headed to first period.
(Time skip to after school)
  I walked out of school and decided to go Jason and I's special place. I sat on the bench. I decided to do my homework. I was peaceful. Only the sounds of birds chirping filled my ears.
25 minutes later
Ding Ding
  My phone. I picked my phone and saw texts from my mom.
Mom😇: I'll be home in 30 minutes
  Mom😇: We need to talk
  I already knew what the talk was going to be about. I left the 'special place' and drove home.
(Time skip to after drive)
  I pulled up in the driveway and saw my mom pacing outside. I got out of the car and she saw me.
  "Honey, are you ok?!" She exclaimed with worry.
  "Yes mom, I'm fine."
  She pulls me into the toughest hug known to man. I could pass out if she kept hugging me. She finally lets go.
  "Let's go inside," she said.
  I nod. We walk inside and go to the kitchen. I go and sit on the bar stool in front of the island.
"I know your worried but I am fine, really," I explain.
"I know you are, I just don't want you getting hurt by that monster of a father," she says sighing.
"Well, they have him in jail if that makes you feel better," I say with an eyebrow raised.
"It doesn't really."
"Why not?"
She sighs.
"Mom?"
"This isn't his first time being in jail," she says.
My jaw drops slightly.
"So he has escaped... more than once?!" I question.
"I don't want to talk about this anymore."
I just sat there. Silent.
  After a few minutes of an awkward silence, I got up and went to my room. I plopped onto my bed feeling sad, confused, and scared.
10 minutes later
Knock knock
I jumped out of my bed and ran downstairs to see my mom opening the door. My eyes widened.
"What do you want?" I said with my arms over my chest.
"I uh...want to make sure your ok," Valerie said.
I looked at my mom with the 'can we speak alone face'. She left and went back into the kitchen.
"Why would you want to know if I'm ok?"
"Look Y/N, even though we aren't friends anymore, I still care about you."
I didn't respond.
  "Thank you for caring...I guess."
  "Well, I should get going now," she said with a smile.
  She waved bye and left. The door slam shut. If I wasn't confused then, I am extremely confused now.
