Chapter 6

I woke up feeling the pain of last night. I took a cold shower and scrubbed my body until it burned.

I stood in front of the mirror naked and saw my horrible body.

I had new bruised all over my body, face, arms and legs.

I had a bruise creeping up from my lower eye to my cheek.

My cheeks were red and had handprints from the guy slapping me. I had more handprints on my neck from the time he chocked me for mot obeying.

My lips were cut and swollen. My body was scratched and bruised up. My legs hurt from him spreading my legs apart.

The worse thing about this is I couldn’t get him off me. Everything I tried to push him off he came and slap or punch me.

And yet I feel numb inside.

I decide to get ready to school today everyone will be whispering about what happen to me. But I had no choice I have been missing school more lately.

I dress in my usual clothes and searched for some makeup to cover up the bruises.

I had none and my mother was darker than me. She was tan and I’m pale white.

The only person who had makeup closely as my bared horrible skin is Mary Jane.

The girls and I went inside the car. I drove the girls to school they didn’t say anything about my face I knew they were worried but it could have been worse.

Yes it could. The others PIG’s would have joined on it.

I drove to Mary Jane’s house. At this time she would be barely getting ready. I parked into her driveway and made it to the door.

I rang the doorbell and waited until she opened it...but my luck never strikes it.

I stood in front of Mr. Salazar.

Mr. Salazar was a very handsome despite him being bald he looked good.

Not that I have a crush or have been lusting on my best friends dad but when I see a good looking man I can deny they look good.

Mr. Salazar is around his 40’s. He is wearing a black nice suit. He is very nice, polite, funny and a great gentleman. He has hazel color eyes that give you a welcoming glaze.

“Morning Mr. Salazar” I said nicely

“Morning Rose come in” he said gesturing me inside

I nod and enter his house.

It very homey and welcoming. There wall are painted a nice peachy shade. They have a fancy but antic living room.

“Mary Jane’s up in her room” he said with a smile

“Thank you” I said and start making my way upstairs

Good thing he didn’t see my bruise on my face.

Spoke to soon.

“Rose what happen to your face?” he asked concern

I turn to look at him but hide my face.

“What do you mean?” I asked pretending not to know

“Well you have a big bruise on you face” he said softly

“Oh that I…I was playing with um Zoey and Michelle and I bumped into a lamp without seeing it there” I lied

Gosh I’m good at this. I just hope he believes me if not then I have no choice to run for it.
