I cringe, backing up in fear. Flashbacks of my parents screaming at me flood through my brain. Screaming means pain. Pain for me. 

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to yell, please, I'm sorry," Phil says desperately, reaching out to touch my shoulder. I pull away and whip around, running in the direction of my house. 

I can still hear him shouting after me as I race down the block. He hates me. He must. How can he not? I've never kept someone close for as long as I have Phil but now that's all over, and it's all because of me. 

I reach my house and open the door, slamming it once inside. I can't see my mum so she's either asleep or out with friends. 

Perfect.
