Chapter 3
When they got home Craig helped Sophie bring in her things then they went and got washed up for dinner. Which was pizza. Angela was introduced to Sophie and she started to act all shy. But they did not make a big deal of it. When they finished eating dinner Sophie, Craig, and Joey sat down and talked about where she would sleep. They decided that for a few days she would sleep I Craig's bed and Craig would sleep on the floor and then she would get her own room. Which had junk in it. They had to clean it out. Before Joey let them go do their homework he said to Craig take care of her stomach before you go to bed. Take off the bandages put new ones on if necessary before you guys go to bed. Then he let them go do their homework.
When they got to Craig's room they took out their homework and started on it. They worked in silence for about 15 minutes then Craig started asking her questions about their dad. Like when did he start hitting you how bad did the hits get. Sophie who had just finished her homework started breaking down crying. Saying that when she had first got their he was nice then he started hitting her and she would hide in her room until he had gone to bed then she would go into the bathroom and clean her cuts and bruises. When she finished she was really crying tears were pouring down her face. He got up and went over to her and held her tight just letting her cry. When she stopped about 45 minutes later Craig led her to the bathroom and had her take off her shirt revealing her bra and skinny self with cuts and bruises. He took off the bandages and under it was a very long cut that went from her belly button up to her appendix area. As he cleaned them she would wince every now and then. When he finished he could tell she was tired so he led her to bed and tucked her in. Before she fell asleep he asked her if he had every hit her head. She said yea this morning when he found my laptop on the kitchen table, which meant I had been up late. He hit me on my head and when I turn it hurts and everything kept going black through out the day. After awhile I figured out how to cover it up. Craig looked into her eyes looking for signs of a concussion and he found a little bit, which looked like it had been much worse earlier. Craig told her to not fall asleep and he left to go get Joey. When Craig came back Joey was with him. Joey looked into her eyes and almost immediately you both are not going to school tomorrow. Craig I want you to wake Sophie up every 2 hours. If she does not wake up I want you to come and get me. Sophie I just want you to rest and relax. If you have a headache tell Craig and we will get you so Tylenol. Ok Sophie said. The Joey left and Craig turned off the light and went over to his bed and sat there with Sophie.
