A Stray

A fight

A few days after I visited the kind man, I was walking down the streets too head home. Once I turned the corner into my ally I was pushed onto the floor. 'Damn again, these guys never know when to give up.' I thought as one of the 4 guys started talking. " Hahaha, look! I thought this guy was suppose to be strong.. I guess this shows you shouldn't believe rumors." He said while laughing. While they were distracted with laughing I took out the guys legs that were in front of me and it cause a whole fight. " Damn this little brat!" A guy yelled and pushed me into the wall and the other 3 started too beat me up. After a few seconds I said " I'm tired of you all coming too take my place...let's end it." After I said that one of the guys laughed and went too punch me but I grabbed his wrist and threw him on the floor. 'The real fight starts now..'

'Damn it' I thought as I limped down the street. Many people would glance at me in disgust before continuing too walk about with their day. I don't know why but as I kept walking I ended up at the man's house once again. 'Maybe I should just leave, I shouldn't burden him' I thought just before knocking on the door, but as I turned away and was about too leave the door opened. "Where are you going stray?" The man questioned as I froze up then sighed and relaxed and turned around as the man told me too come it. "I'll get the first aide, you go sit down." He said before walking away. I decided too look around and found myself in the kitchen before it started getting hard too walk so I just sat there on the floor in front of the counters with my back against them.

A few minutes later the man came back in, and looked at me for a moment before sighing and starting too take care of my wounds. " Did you get in a fight or something stray?" He asked as I just slowly nodded while watching him patch my wounds. For the rest of the time he spent bandaging me up it was silent until after he told me what injures I had. I had a sprained ankle, a lot of minor cuts and bruises and a large cut on my neck that might scar. As I was getting up too leave he suddenly gently pushed me back down. I looked up at him confused before he started too talk. " your injures are going too take about a week or two too heal so your staying here until they do." He said with a stern look and I knew he wasn't going too take any other options so I just sighed and layed down on the wood floor in the kitchen before taking a nap because I was tired and had nothing else too do.

"You don't have to sleep on the floor kid, You can sleep on the couch or something but whatever night kid." The man said and walked away as I fell asleep.
