The No-one

The shouts

Me and Noah talked for a while, we seems to actually be quite friendly towards each other everything was fine; until we hear a shout from Noah's dad. "Noah! Come down stairs now!"
Noah's dad seemed very threatening and even I was scared not even knowing how Noah felt. "I'll be back in a minute Lynette."
Noah smiled lightly before running down the stairs, he leaved the door open accidentally so I could hear everything. "Noah how can you go outside while you have so much to do?"
"I-I'm sorry Dad, I was at the book store gett-"
"I swear if you say 'getting a book about planes or history' I'm going to do more than punish you."
Noah's dad shouted. This bought a few tears down my cheek, I never thought Noah had to deal with this. I believe at this points Noah's dad slapped Noah, I bursted into tears to the sound of Noah yelping. "I'm so disappointed with you, you obsess about planes and history when you could be studying and becoming a doctor you are getting so much worse in your science you are a failure, A FAILURE!!!"
Noah's dad took this emotions further I think, by the sounds I could hear of Noah whimpering. "Dad, it's a h-h-hobby."
"Hobbies don't help your grade."
Then I heard the front door slam and a quiet cry from Noah, I ran downstairs and stood in front of him. "He's your dad..."
Noah nodded, Noah was bundled in a corner on the floor crying. I sat down next to him. "D-don't listen to him, maybe you shouldn't be a doctor and a engineer do what you want."
I attempted to comfort Noah the best I could I couldn't believe he had to live with that. Noah look at me with his same old smile. "Thank you Lynnette, he's not that bad other have much worse I'm lucky."
"Well you aren't really, that's horrible what he's done."
I wasn't sure what illusion Noah was on but he sounded like he deserved this. "Yes but-"
"Yes but don't listen to that, you don't deserve this Noah."
I looked at Noah's arms, legs and face he had marks over them all, he was practically black and blue. I thought for a while before turning to Noah and smiled. "What if you, I don't know stayed with me for a while. I get a bit lonely and you don't seem like a complete slob to get away from your dad huh?"
Noah's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Yes! I'd... love that."
"Come at 8 pm Tomorrow Ok?"
"O-ok, you should go before my d-"
"I get it."
I got up and grabbed my stuff from Noah's room before walking back home. Then it hit me, I invited the plane crazy person I used to dislike but I saw it more as that I invited ...a friend... who is in need of my help.
