I'm real.2
Rin kicked a can out of her way when she entered her home. It was a pretty big apartment but to her it was empty. She slammed the door with her foot and dropped the key into her bag. Her father was spread out on the couch, his shirt gone and his pants barely there. Her father was fairly attractive with his dark hair and piercing maroon eyes. A girl that most would classify as 'hot' was sitting near him giggling like a school girl as she was messing with his hair. She looked up with Rin plopped her bag on the beer bottle covered coffee table. Her eyes glazed over the woman quickly. A few small purple marks covered her right arm.
"Hey." The woman said lazily. Rin grunted as a greeting. She pushed her dad's legs off the couch. She sat down and stuck her hand into his pocket. She pulled out a plastic container. Inside were cigarette's.
"Want one?" She asked holding it out to the woman. Rin never bothered to catch their names. They came and went easily, just like Rin's cigarettes. Her father would get drunk and he'd attach himself to whatever was cute. When he'd sobered up he'd drop them. Rin didn't mind much. They were always kind to him- trying to earn points maybe. The woman pushed it away.
"No thanks." Rin shrugged and lit it up. She twirled it in her mouth for a few moments. She closed her away and tilted her head back. She let the smoke out slowly, enveloping her in a fog. "Do you think this is bad for me?" She asked. The woman gave her a startled look.
"Hon, everything in this world is bad for you one way or another." Rin didn't even look up, but she could tell that at that moment she was pilfering through her dad's wallet.
"Hey." Rin said pushing her head up straight. The woman looked startled and frankly scared as Rin watched her holding onto her dad's wallet. "Pass me forty will ya?" The woman blinked, then she smiled wickedly.
"Keep a secret?" She asked playfully holding the money out to Rin. Rin inhaled again and grabbed the money.
"Whatever. Have fun with him." She picked her bag up again and began walking towards the door. She paused briefly at the table. She grabbed two un-opened bottles and walked out.
"Where are you going?" The woman cried out into the hallway.
"I don't know. I'll find out when I get there." The woman shrugged and closed the door. Rin walked out of the building ruffling her hair. She continued walking down the street. She noticed a little boy walking around with his eyes fixed on the ground.
"What are you doing kid?" She asked taking her cigarette out. The kid looked up.
"I'm a looking for cash."
"Cash?" Rin repeated raising her eyebrow. The little boy nodded.
"My sister said she wanted ice-cream." Rin looked around. A few paces away there was a little girl squatting down with tears on her cheeks. Rin sighed. Unknown to her a black car was stopping at a place across the street.
"Okay kid, get her two scoops okay?" Rin said handing him half the money she stole. The little boy smiled.
"Thanks lady!" He cried out. He hugged her legs, then he ran off and pulled his sister over to a ice cream stand. Rin sighed and ran her hair through her hand. She slapped someone in the process.
"Ow." A muscular voice said behind her. Rin took a drag before she turned around.
"Like stalking me?" She said with a glare on her face. Len held his hands up innocently.
"No, I had business here."
"Really now." Rin rolled her eyes and turned to walk away.
"Your good aren't you?" Len said. Rin stopped. She gave him a cold hard stare over her shoulder. Len took a step back. She walked over to him. She stabbed her finger into his chest. She quickly told herself that now was not time to think about how hard it was.
"Being kind get's you killed." She said dropping her cigarette on his shoe on purpose. Len stared at her.
"Then what was that?" He asked pointing to the little kids smiling at the man. Rin looked down. What was that? She thought.
Come a little closer Rin.
Rin's eyes widened and a chill passed through her spine. She had locked that deep deep down inside her, that fear. Len watched her with growing curiosity. First, he thought, she looks down. Then she shudders. He stared at his hands which were halfway to her body. His own eyes widening at his movements. He stopped them.
Rin, why are you shaking? Come closer. They won't hurt you.
Rin wrapped her arms around her. The memory of their touch crawling on her skin, leaving Rin feel gross and slimy where it passed. Their eyes, she recalled, were red. Their breath was heavy with smoke and gin.
Pl-please stop!
Len watched as Rin seemed to grow more and more uncomfortable. He opened his voice to say something but his voice squeaked. His arms were frozen just outside her body. She seemed, so small right now. He hadn't noticed before but Rin was lean, she was smaller than him and probably frailer.
You little-! I never should have had you!
She didn't notice it but she began to cry. The fear of that night bubbled up to the surface. Being nice get's you killed she thought, it always does. She looked up at Len. He would never understand she thought. She ran away from there and into the crowd.
But all Len could think about was her face.
xXxXx
"Mommy, where are we going?" A beautiful woman looked down at the pretty little blonde girl holding her hand.
"Somewhere fun. You're going to help mommy."
"Okay!
"Is this her?" A gruff man asked. The woman looked over at the little girl walking a few paces behind her. She scowled.
"Yeah."
"C'mon sweetie."
"Mommy- I'm scared."
"Don't be."
The little blonde girl stood on a small stage in front of a dark room. She could smell smoke and her the clink of bottle. But she didn't know how many people were in it. She didn't even see her mother.
"What should I do?" She asked in a small voice.
"Put on a show." A gruff voice replied.
"A show?" She asked tilting her head.
"Yeah, start with your sweater." The little girl looked down at the blue sweater she was wearing.
"Huh?"
"Take it off."
"I-It's cold." The little girl whimpered. She wrapped her arms around her bare body. She heard a few cheers from the people in the dark room.
"Hey, don't do that." A deep voice said.
"Do what?"
"Cover yourself." Slowly, she put her arms by her sides. She squeezed them close to her body. I'm scared, she thought.
"Hey, Mike go up there."
"Huh? Why me?"
"Hey girl!" The little girl looked up.
"What?"
"Your going to be useful."
"How?" Snickers erupted throughout the room.
"Go on Mike."
"Fine."
"H-Hey stop! Pl-please stop!"
"Shut up kid."
"Don't- don't do that!"
"Shut up!" A man hit her. He was leaning over her.
"I-It hurts!"
"Stop squirming."
"P-Please!"
"You know what? Shut up."
"Plea-" Her cry was muffled by something being shoved down her throat. She choked and a second man snickered. She began to cry. The woman stood near the back, she was searching through bills the men had handed her.
The little girl laid on the stage. The room was almost empty, but anyone who was left began to file out. She sobbed motionlessly. Her body black and blue, and a white cream in chunks were on and around her body. The woman picked up the clothes and walked over to the little girl.
"Come on, time to go home." She said with a smile. The child sat up and looked at the woman.
"Mommy..." She said slowly. The woman looked down. "They hurt me."
"Of course they did."
"Why did they?"
"They paid me to."
"Mommy..."
"Yes?" The little girl gripped something at her side. She looked at it a second then looked back up at the face she loved so much. "I hope you die slowly." The little girl lunged at her mother with a piece of glass in her hand. Her eyes wild and tears streaming down her face.
Rin woke up in a cold sweat. She looked around. She was sitting a park. She touched her cheeks. She was still crying. The memories of that day flooded up to the surface. She remembered her mother's face as she was dying. Her last words.. "You always were too kind Rin." She shuddered.
"Rin." A deep voice said. She turned to face it in a flash, her fist balled up. She relaxed and sat down.
"What do you want, Len?"
"Your crying."
"No shi..." She said angrily. Len sighed.
"Are you okay?" He said looking her in the eye. Rin didn't respond. She simply stared at the ground. Len frowned and sat next to her. Rin sobbed softly. Len didn't think and brought her closer to him.
"Shh, shh, it's okay Rin."
"No it's no-"
"It is."
Rin paused. He didn't even know what she did, or what was done to her. How could he say it was okay? She thought. His body heat radiated off of him onto her.
But for now, she thought leaning into his touch, it's okay..
xXxXx
Rin frowned and looked at their daughter. It's not like, she thought, I can tell her all that.
"Mommy, why'd you stop?" Rin blinked.
"Well, let's just say daddy saved mommy okay?"
The little girl smiled.
"Okay."
xXxXx
