Phil walked over to Keely, his hands brushed her face, "oh Keely, I can't believe I let you live like this for so long". Then Phil kissed her bloody lips and put his arms on her waist to hug her. Keely, I love you".
"Oh Phil I love you too, but don't feel bad I-I…." Keely felt as if she was responsible for some of the things that happened to her, she was looking at Phil with a glum face and didn't make any eye contact with him. " I think it was my fault, maybe I drove my father to hard and he wasn't ready to handle me, so he got drunk and abused me, and-and…" Keely went on about how she thought it was her fault.
"Keely, what happened to you want your fault if it was anyone's fault it would be your fathers, but all that matters is that you are safe now and no one can harm you". Phil and Keely went into the bathroom to wash her up so that when she went to go see her mom with Phil, she would look at least half way decent.
Keely was sitting on the edge of the bathroom counter next to the sink talking to Phil. "Phil thank you so much for coming to get me, my life is miserable here and all I want to do is go home".
"Don't worry, I bet your mom wont let you come back here, and your father might even go to jail so nothing like this can ever happen again". Phil said with a half-smile on his face.
"All we can do is hope" Keely said with a full smile on her face. Then when they were all done Keely looked like she got into a bad bike accident, all the blood was gone from her nose and lips, but all the bruises were still there but they looked more like a smudge of dirt then like bruises.
Keely and Phil tiptoed thru the house, and her father was still knocked out on the couch, that is probably one of the last times he will be doing that because when they get to the city, he is in huge trouble with the cops. Phil and Keely got on the skyak and rode off to New York City.
When they got there they headed off to Mandy Tesslow's house, when they to there, things took a big turn. "MOM! I missed you so much!" Keely ran to her mother and gave a huge hug.
"Oh, Keely, I am so sorry, I had no clue your father turned into that type of person" Mrs.Tesslow said while looking here daughter over. "Honey, what happened to you" she said noticing to cuts and bruises
"Mom I really am ok, I don't really want to get into the details, but just be thankful that Phil was there when he was or might have not been so lucky".
"Well, ok…….how 'bout we all sit down and talk about things" Mrs.Tesslow suggested. They all sat down next to each other and talked about how things were the past month.
Keelys mom was very upset about how her father treated her and how irresponsible he was, she promised Keely that she would never go back there again.
"Ohh, and mom, he said one more thing that I am hoping you can clear up for me, he said that I wasn't his real daughter……..".
