Andy didnt sleep that night , waiting for a mother, his mother ..
He spent the whole night staring at himself in the mirror trying his best to look good , fixing his hair tuging it behind his ears so that it wont look messy , trying to smile, trying to stand correctly and straight... He was so excited and yet so scared , terrified...He hugged the story book to his chest its where a mother is , he would open the book , look at the mother sheep and smile , he wanted mother sheep ...he slowly drifted in a dreamless sleep with the book in his arms.
.....
"Andy "
" y-yes"
" you look just fine andy relax please "
Alex pleaded for what seem to be sixth time that evening , finding andy facing the mirror , fixing his hair and trying to smile at his reflection . he was wearing a black lond sleeve shirt and black jean and a green hoodie , there was no skin showing other than face and neck. And he was trying hard to hide his neck with his hair so that the burn scars dont show up.
that didnt bother Alex tho, but what what did was the sad look on andy's scarred face and how fragil he was , how unconfident he was , what botherd him was how he was ripped out of any personality and of any thaughts..." are you ready to go down and see her ? "
Andy's eyes widened , no he wasn't ready ,not at all
"Y-y-es "
He followed Alex quietly like a scares puppy he was nervous his hands were shaking and sweatingHe peecked from behind alex to look at the woman siting with mister Thomas. she had blood red hair that made andy questioning 'was that blood ? Do master hurt her too ? "
He looked at her eyes they were so beautiful , he looked at her mouth at the red lipstick , he admired her not noticing that alex stepped away ...." here he is "
Sharon got up to take a good look at the boy who reminded her of her worst nightmars
Her shame was right infront her
She examined all of the scars on his face , the blond hair that reminded her of her old days ..she couldn't stand it anymore she hated it , she hated the kid so much
She angrily turned away to face Thomas taking her purse and hissed" dont you ever call me again "
Thomas grabbed ger hand and glared at her
"What do you mean .... Leaving just like that ...he ...look at him he needs you ...for hell's sake he is your so.."
He was caught with sharon's loud voice
"Dont you dare finish that ...just dont "
She then pointed twords Andy and said
"That over there is not my son ..you hear .... I dont have a bastard son from that bastard man.."and with that she left ...
She just left, not one more glance at the boy who was hoping for her to notice him , who was admiering her ....
She left and forgot about a lonely boy who grew up in hate and violence .. Who was only dreaming of a loving embrase ,and a simple touch that would not hurt...
The house was filled with silence , both Alex and Thomas were staring at the freezing boy inftont of them who didnt move an inch , still looking at where Sharon stood , motionless.
Alex cleard the lamb in his threot and approched Andy speaking sauftly scared to frighten him.
"Uhm... Andy are you okay ? "
He instantly slapped himself for asking this stupid question
Of course he is not okay
Of course he is hurting
Alex knows how he feels because he've been there before , he've been left like that before.."Do you like this now ? Huh dad ? I told you this was a bad idea "
He focused back on andy whos eyes now are teary
" Andy sweetheart please say something "
A few tears fell when andy looked at alex " me .....i-is s-sleepy"
"Let's go to sleep then yeah "
