Chapter 3: Isabella
I woke up with my alarm clock beeping at me. I go to roll out of bed and I fall and land on my side. The tears swell up in my eyes. I can barely push myself up to my hands to crawl to my
alarm clock. I finally reach it. I sit there, wondering how am I going to make it through the day? My rib has its own heartbeat, and it hurts like someone it constantly hitting me with a
steel bar. I stand up, and walk to the bathroom. I brush out the ratted nest that has been made during the night. I a take a good long look at myself in the mirror, I try to hold down the
ball that is choking me in my neck. This is by far the worst beating that I have ever gotten. I lightly touch my head, and I gasp at the pain. The swelling kinda went down over night, but
its still noticeable. I put on some make up to cover up my tear stained face. I slowly glide towards my dresser, I pull out pants, and a huge shirt. I put on my hat and walk out of my
bedroom.
" Come on guys get up." I say to my little sisters. They roll over in there beds and get up. " Bella, what happened last night when daddy was in your room?" stephanie asked with
confusion in her eyes.
" He was, um, showing me something Steph. Don't worry about it sweetheart." I kiss her head and give her a hug.
" okay, because I heard the door being slammed." she said.
" yeah,i was playing around with dad. Katie get dressed and brush your hair. What do you guys want for breakfast?" I asked not even really thinking about breakfast, I was thinking
about how someday my dad is going to slip and hit one of them. That will be the day I stand up to him. " Bella? Did you hear me?" Katie said, poking me in my rib. I squinted with pain,
but tried not to let it show.
" No, sorry, what did you say?" I say trying to hold back the pain on my face. Katie looked at me with a twisted face then shook her head.
" we want oatmeal." she said with a discombobulation tone in her voice.
" okay, I will get it ready. Steph, get ready okay? Breakfast will be ready when your done." I say as I turn to walk to the kitchen.
I get two bowls out to put the oatmeal, then the phone rang. "hello?"
" Bella! Hey its Kat, do you want a ride to school?" she said with excitement in her voice.
" Um, well I have to take my sisters to school too, and my grandma bought me a car over summer, so no, thanks though."
" Oh really? Thats awesome! Well I will just meet you at the table at school. See you in a bit. Bye."
" okay, bye."
As I turned around, I ran into something hard. It was my dad. " who was on the phone Bella?" he said with anger in his tone. Please don't do this right now. Please.
" It was my friend, Kat."
" what did she want?" he said while crossing his arms.
" if I wanted a ride to school, but I told her no."
" okay, no funny business Bella, or there will be consequences for them." he said with the look of, Go ahead, try me, face. I just nodded, and headed back to the kitchen. I finished making
the breakfast, and walked to tell my sisters.
I just finished dropping of my sisters, and I pulled into the parking lot with my 1999 Buick Century. I parked next to the big tree out front of my school. I step out of my car, holding my
side. I try as hard as I can to take a deep breath, but it just causes pain. I grab my back pack, and my my keys and head to school. I walk towards the table were Kat told me to meet
her and Nat. They both see me and start waving for me to come over there.
" Bella!" they say in unison. I smile.
" hey guys. How have you been?"
" oh Bella, you know how every summer my family and I go to the Bahamas?" I shake my head yes. " well I met a guy there named Xavier. He is my boyfriend." I laugh, but I have to stop
from the pain.
" oh Kat, you haven't changed. Thats good. Im happy for you. What about you Natalee?"
" well I spent all summer with my Aunt Alexandra. She has way to many cats, and loves them to much. My summer pretty much sucked." she said with a look of disappointment on her
face. " What did you do Bella?"
" I just spent the summer with my Grandma and my sisters. She has been really sick lately, and her new care taker is not that good. So I helped her out. She barely speaks English!" I
smiled while saying that last part. Kat was just about to tell me something then the bell rang.
" What Class do you have?" Kat asked me and Nat.
" English." I said.
" Art." Natalee said.
" Oh well I guess just meet me at the table when brake starts. Love you guys." she Blows a kiss. Nat and I said bye and turned to go to classes. I have been friends with them since I
started kindergarten, I cant believe we are seniors. They may be my best friends, but they only see my skin. They know nothing whats underneath the hard shell that I have built around
myself over the years. I smile, Kat is such a boy chaser, and Nat just makes jokes all the time, and talks about how much she hats cats.
I reach my English class, I sit in the back row, I have a gut feeling that this year is going to be an adventure.
