Mimi's Story: Part Two
I just stood there shocked at what he had said. I did what I did to help out, to make them like me, and just to do the right thing, and yet they still hate me. Matt held me tighter but I pulled away, walked over to Tai and slapped him across his face. Everyone just stood there and stared in shock, especially him. " You bitch, what the hell was that for?"
" You think your all that Tai, well I've got news for you, your not. If you think you can treat people like you are your wrong. I almost got myself killed just to save you and your friends and yet you don't even care. I used to care whether you like me or not but you know what. Your a bad person with a mean attitude and I don't give a shit what you think! I'm going home like I should have a long time ago when I found out how but I stayed because I was part of this team. I hope your happy Tai, I hope all of you are because I hate you, I hate you and Sora and Izzy and Jou and I could say T.K. but he's just a little kid who was probably just trying to be like everyone else!" Then I ran away. I ran as fast as I could not caring where I went as long as I was away from them.
" Tai your such a bitch sometimes! She was about to sacrifice herself just to save you and the others though I don't even understand why after how you treated her. Now that she's gone, gone home to our world for all we know we can't save this world or our own, and when we go back and have to tell the world that we couldn't save it it's going to be all your fault!" Matt yelled and then took off after Mimi.
Tai just stood there, shocked at what Matt had said to him.
I ran through the woods as fast as a could but soon tripped and cut my leg on a branch. I screamed out in pain as it began bleeding. I heard Matt's footsteps getting closer but when I tried to get up I just yelled again and fell back down. Not being able to get up ruined my whole plan of going home because I had to be along the sea shore and no I couldn't get there.
Tears rolled down my cheeks as the wound began to hurt even more. It was then that I saw Matt had found me. " Mimi what happened?" he said kneeling down in front of me.
" I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me back there. Tai was just so mean I couldn't keep my feelings inside anymore, they just came out," I replied.
He shook his head which confused me. " Not that, you had every right to say what you did back there. I meant to your leg. That's a pretty deep cut."
I looked down and saw that blood had gone through my dress. " Oh that. I tripped when I was running."
He ripped the bottom of his shirt but when I asked what he was doing he did not reply. He wrapped it around my leg tightly and smiled slightly. "That should help for now, but it would help if we had some alcohol to treat the wound so it won't get infected."
I looked up into his eyes and smiled. " Thank you." He then wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close into his embrace. He felt so warm compared to me. I myself was freezing in this weather. I shivered a bit and moved closer to him.
" It is chilly out isn't it?" he said taking of his jacket. " Here. This should warm you up." He then wrapped his jacket around me.
I looked up at him in concern. " You sure? I mean, if I wear your jacket you'll be cold."
" It's okay. I'm worried about you Mimi, I just want you to be alright. I've had my eye on you ever since we all got here. You always looked so sad even when we first arrived. I was wondering...why?"
I looked down at the ground and began to sob. I then shook my head and looked up. " Well, before I had always tried to act normal around everyone, but after a while and after I came here I just couldn't. Everyone thought that my life was perfect, that everything was all right but it's not. About a month ago my mom left my dad because he would hit her. He wasn't happy about that at all because she was usually the one who took care of me. Every night he would stop at a bar or something and drink a lot. When he came home he would always find some reason to yell and... and hurt me. I have like a million bruises but my clothes hide them. After that I shut everyone out of my life. I just stopped trusting people. I thought that no one cared anymore." After finishing I began to cry again.
I felt comfort in Matt's warm embrace. He held me tight and I did the same. He was the only one who cared, the only person I felt safe around. " Why don't you tell someone like a police officer or someone. He has no right to do that to you."
I looked into his eyes and sighed. " I don't know...I was afraid, I still am. I just don't know what to do."
" You need to tell someone Mimi. You can't just let him get away with hurting you. If you don't tell someone, I'll do it myself. I'm not just going to sit here while he hurts you."
I buried me head in Matt's chest and cried even more. " Oh Matt, I just don't know what to do."
I felt his hands run through my hair as he held me tighter. " It's okay...everything will be all right, I promise. And no matter what happens I'll always be here for you."
I looked up at him and smiled. " Thank you Matt, for everything." I then sighed and closed my eyes. I have to admit I was very tired and soon drifted off so sleep in Matt's arms.
