School Story:Chapter 7

Sephrina
I saw everything flashing before my eyes. I was at the market,getting my supplies and my lunch with my brother,Nero.
I saw Red,Scarlet,Shadow,Napoleon,and Amadeus,my best friends.
I saw Napoleon getting slapped by my parents. I saw him yelling at them.
I saw Mozart getting hit with a baseball bat and getting dragged to the basement. I told my parents to stop it. I tried to help him. But,I had to slap him in the face to make sure he wasn't dead because my parents told me to do it. When they were asleep,I grabbed a quill and ink with some blank pieces of paper and put it right beside him on the desk.

Sephrina a few minutes after the Flashback...
I went down towards him with a tray full of food. I was in my "servant" clothes. My uniform was hanging on the door in the closet in my break room(which I never went into unless I get dressed and have homework),and my backpack was in the living room.
I was so scared,I knew I still had to go to school with him and my best friends...and he just go home from the hospital.

I walked towards the desk and noticed something different. He was writing poems out of his discovery here and how afraid he was(that's how he got the title afraid from).

Out of nowhere,I hear a sound,my father,saying,"Sephrina! Where are you?! Come here before I beat you!" I quickly put down the tray beside his work and I yelled back,"Coming,Father!"

Then,I started to quickly go upstairs. Then,I walked towards his room. "Where have you been?" He says,still yelling at me. "Your mother still isn't home and i need someone to..."(the creepy part is so...ugh! You'll read about it after this is over.)
"Do whatever you want,sir." He grins with an evil glare in his eyes.

After that happened,he told me to go downstairs and see if Ami is alright. I do as he asked and then I started to go down the stairs...I hear the front door open and shut. "Hi,honey!" I hear my mom say. "Did you..." "Yes,I did." "Oh! Good for you. Now,I need some sleep. Where is she?" "She's downstairs seeing if her "friend" is still awake or not." Then,without listening to anymore of the conversation,I run downstairs without making any noise.

I go towards the light switch to the basement and I turn it on. The light brighten my vision and I had to cover my eyes for a few seconds before I know where I was at. I go towards him,waiting to see if he would wake.

He hasn't been up in a long time. The only time he's awake is when I'm not down here.

I see the food gone and the quill spread on the sheet. The quill covered the title of the poem. I moved it and I saw the title saying, Lullaby on the World. I think I saw this poem before and I saw it was on top of the poem he was working on. The poem said for the title,Hurt. I look at the words and I get so sad about it that I accidentally dropped the tray onto the floor. "What in the name of God was that?" I hear someone say.

By the time I looked up,it was actually Mozart who said that. My parents were probably screwing around by now and didn't hear a thing. I looked at him with my eyes full of tears and he says,"What have they done to you?" "Nothing." I said back. He looks at me with an "😠" face. "Okay,something happened but I'm not allowed to talk about it."

"Oh. So now it's all keep secrets away from me now, isn't it? I just got home from the hospital and you're taking some random crap that I don't even know what's going on with you and..." He starts to sob between words. "And...you're...my...best...friend." I look at him sad because of him crying and what happened between me and my father. "Look. They threatened me to not tell anyone. Even if I wanted to,they would have done it to me more,but worse than before."

I decided not to tell him about what happened because he too was scared of my parents. Then,I see my parents shadows walking down towards the stairs. I saw their flaming eyes glaring toward me. I know what they're going to do so,I let them do it in front of Mozart. As I drop down towards the floor,Mozart has this look in his eyes saying that he is mad and scared at the same time.

I drop on the floor looking at Mozart. The last thing that I see is him waking towards me and saying in my ear,"I'm sorry...so sorry."

Then,I see nothing.
