"You worthless piece of shit!" Yelled my father as he slapped my mother round the face and the sound echoed around my house, my mother didn't cried or plead, she retaliated and yelled back at him punching his shoulder pathetically. I sighed and moved my books from the front room to my bedroom, where my brother was getting high with his 'friends'. Could I study anywhere in peace? I carried all my things into the small bathroom my family shared and rested my head against the cupboard beneath the sink and took a few calming breaths before returning to my maths revision, "Kenny! Make dinner, your sisters too pregnant to do it!" My Mother yelled through the house. I dropped my books and walked to the kitchen.
With close inspection of the cupboards, I realized that we had nothing in, I'd have to go shopping tomorrow. The food we had in was half a small packet of pasta and two eggs. I cooked off the eggs and pasta, there was barely enough to eat for two so I put some food a side for Karen, as no one would wait for her to eat, and gave the rest to my family. As my family tucked in to the food, I escaped back upstairs, I knew I wouldn't get anything to eat. The only food I get is at lunch when Kyle's mother gives him extra money for me to eat.
I get to study for about half an hour before everything starts up again, the screaming, the laughing and the blasting of music, I couldn't concentrate but I had to study, my exams were tomorrow. I grabbed my school bag and through my stuff into it and ran out the front door. My family wouldn't care anyway. "
Oh Kenny," Smiled Mrs Brofloski, "Need a place to study?" She smiled, I nodded as she moved aside to let me in, "Kyle's in his room, go straight ahead," I smiled gratefully and walked up the stair and knocked on Kyle's door, "
Yeah," He called and I entered, "Oh, hey Kenny, your family again?" He smiled sadly as I nodded, "Come sit, we can revise together."
