" okay just set the date and time " mom said after she hang the phone up

" who are you talking too mom?" I asked her while i walked down the stairs holding my back like a pregnant woman

" my friend, the one who has a handome son, remember the one who visited us last night but you didnt even care to show your shadow?" She said and smirked " and why are you standing like an old woman who is ready to give birth" she added and crossed her arms on her chest

I tried to stand straight but the pain is killing me

"Errr mom, i fall from the bed last night and i think i broke my back and also my water bag " i  told her  and gestured my finger a peace sign

" water bag your face" she said and laughed

" come over here, let me check and put some ointment" she offered a hand
I walked slowly towards the living room and laid my body facing down on the sofa, Mom sat next to me and pulled my clothes up

" what are this?" She said as she start removing my shirt and applying some
Ointment

" awww that? What's that?" I returned the question to her

" this" then she poked my back hard

" ouccchhh " i groaned in pain

" what the heck happened to your body" she angrily shouted

My sweat is flowing non stop now, what am i going to do, im doomed

" you tell me what happened here!!" She stood up and crossed her arms right in front of me

" mom, i— uhhmm— i— told you— i fell
Off from my bed" i said as i scratched the back of my head

" you dont lie to me that way!, what the heck happened to your back" her brows are now narrowed

"mom it's....."

Ring

Pweeeffff thank goodness she had a phone call, or else ill be dead by now

" okay hang on" she said to the other line

She stared at me and giving me a i'll -talk—to—you —later look.

I smiled as a response, i hurriedly run to my room even though my whole body is aching

10 minutes pass when i heard a loud knock on my door

" chimon come out talk to me!" Mom shouted

" mom im really sorry" i shouted back

I heard she walked out and i released a sigh but after a minute i heard a key entering on my door knob

Im really doooommmeeeeddddd

A few seconds she entered with a face full of compassion

She sat next to me and held my hands, i felt the care and trust the security of love coming from her

" now baby tell me what really happened to you?, i noticed it last night but i didnt took courage to ask you, i want you to tell it to me directly" she said in a calm voice

I did not notice that im already crying

" Mom i was bullied in school, i accidentally throw the ball on the shoes of my classmate and then there his friends toyed me, they punched me as if i was a punching bag, mom—- i hid my—self under our proffesors table for them not to be able to see me but..." i started crying" they kicked it and the steel case where the erasers and markers fell off my head that caused this one" i pointed the band aid on my forehead, my tears are continously flowing like river
