Chapter 3- Secrets revealed

After lying in my bed for 20 minutes I heard rain hit the windows and heard thunder boom every 5 minutes. My biggest fear was thunder I hated the sound and felt very uneasy and I was petrified. A big boom of thunder came I jumped out of my bed and hid in the corner. A big gush of wind rattled my window and the rain poured down getting heaver each minute. Another big BOOM went I ran out to the lounge room where Deadpool was I grabbed a pillow and ran to the corner. I curled up in a ball and hid my face in between my legs. I heard footsteps come closer to me I looked up and saw Deadpool he knelt down and said "What's wrong" In a worried tone. I replied in a shaky tone "I'm petrified of thunder because of this one night that happened to me when I was a little of girl." Deadpool sat on the floor facing me and saying "Tell me the story please". I took a deep breath and said It was a normal night I was 7 years old I was walking with my mother down this street it was 10:00pm my mother had no idea where she was walking as my step-father and her had a huge fight that night I was very scared. My step father hated me and abused my mother all the time. He was in a gang and was a criminal I soon found out as that was what the fight was about. My mother looked behind us and saw my step father and his gang coming after us with handguns and knives. My mother and I ran into an ally way she spoke to me and said "Whatever happens I will always love you and you have to be strong I will always be with you." She had tears coming down her cheeks and gave me a huge hug and a kiss on my forehead. We made eye contact for a long moment and she put me behind the dumpster bin and walked away from me. I heard my step-father and my mother talking then I looked straight at my mother, the thunder made a huge flash and that's when I saw the last of my living mother. Another big BOOM of thunder came I heard the gun go BANG and saw my mother lying on the ground with a puddle of blood around her. I screamed "MUMMY" and felt tears stream down my burning cheeks. I turned away from them for a second then another big BOOM of thunder came I turned back around to see my mother but I saw my step-father point a gun at my head but the flash of blue and red lights covered the brick walls of the alley way and the sound of sirens filled the air. My step-father and his gang ran away in a flash so I ran to my mother and knelt down. I felt the lots of tears run down my face every second I cried and screamed. The police came and examined the scene. They walked towards me and tried to take me off my mother but I held on to her as tight as I could but they eventually pulled me off my mother. I was kicking my legs around and screaming "NOOOOO" as they pulled me away from her and put me in a car. I was sent to an orphanage the next day but I never knew where they took my mother. After I finished the story I felt tears run down my face as the memories of that night flooded my brain. I burst into tears but I felt warm arms warp around my body and heard Deadpool say "It's alright just let it all out." I cried some more in his friendly hug but finished crying after 5 minutes. I said in a shaky voice "Thanks for listening and for letting me cry on you and every time I hear thunder I always think my step-father will come after me and he will kill me when the flash of thunder comes." "It's alright I will look after you" he said in a calm tone

"Poor Maddy that's awful about what happened"

"Yeah but I wonder what gun her step-father used"

"ARE YOU SERIOUS YOU DON'T CARE THAT HER ONLY FAMILY IS DEAD"

"Yeah but I wanna know what gun he used"

"Your unbelievable"

"Yep that's me"

Guys be quiet I whispered

"Ok sorry"

"whatever…"

After 5 minutes I looked up and saw Maddy sleeping in my arms as the crying made her tired so I picked her up and walked to her room. I placed her under the doona and took a step back to look at her.

"You like her don't you?"

"Well this is knew you never like a girl"

"What's so special about her?"

I'm not sure I never felt like this before about a girl I guess she has beautiful blue eyes, her smile and her personality but I think I do like her.

"AWWW that's cute"

"Deadpool and Maddy sitting in a tre G"

SHUT UP I quietly screamed to bold as I walked back to the couch.

"You should visit Spidey for advice"

"I wonder what advice he has for you it's probably about tell her how you feel blablablah"

"It probably is and it is good advice so let's see Spidey tomorrow"

Good Idea I will visit him tomorrow at the hangout as I yawned and fell asleep.
