Chapter 4
Show down
It was 4:30 o'clock the evening; I had already spoken to Kairi about going to the cinema and my friend about it as well. It was starting to get darker the sun had hid its self behind the clouds and the dawn of dark was on the horizon. The streets light were on and the light filled the area with a radiant orange light. The air was musky as it looked like it may rain. All the birds had gone there homes and all I could see out side was people walking down the street coming home from work.
I was really nervous about going to the cinema with a girl, I had only gone to the cinema with Cloud and Vincent so I had no idea what to do or expect. Earlier that day I had told Cloud and Vincent to meet at mine at about 5:45, the school was only ten minuet walk from my house. My sister Tifa was in the next room with her music playing as loud as she could have it, I could feel the vibrations and they travailed through my bones. My sister was the type who seemed to stay at home all the time and just do school work and stuff I really wasn't bothered about what she does. She has the biggest gob on the planet and a bitchy attitude to match it.
It was almost 5 o'clock and I still had to get ready. I walked over to my wardrobe and took out a pair of blue denim jeans and a blue t shirt, blue was my favourite colour. It was now totally dark out side and the sun had go and dark taken over. I put my cloths on speedily as if I didn't I would be late.
After I went to the bath room to get a wash, I moved to the sink. I turned the silver tape over to the right and the water spurted out like a bullet leaving a gun. With in no time the sink was full with warm water. I grabbed my flannel and placed it into the water it just seemed to float on the water, I moved my left hand to the little side table and I felt the face wash, I moved it to the sink slow and squeezed some out onto my hand. I place the gel on my face and after I splashed my face with water with the flannel. I drained the sink and I brushed my teeth. I had finish washing myself in almost ten minuets.
I went to my room now and there was this strange feeling in the air I couldn't figure at what it was but I carried on what I was doing. I was watching TV for about five minuets. Just then I herd this great bang every thing froze my sister's music stopped.
My sister ran out and followed her we both looked at each other and at the same time we said "what was that" I replied "don't know" moved forwards and I could hear shouting. I thought to myself 'on no not again' I heard another loud bang this time it was accompanied by a scream. I ran down stairs to the living room door, I felt like Alice entering the hole I didn't no what to expect.
I opened the door and turned my head slowly what I saw was the sight of evil. My dad's hands locked around my mum's neck. My dad's hands locked on her neck his eyes full of red and evil a glare of hatred and evil in his eyes. My mum was pined against the wall and her face was red a faint look of innocents was dying from her face and she just seemed to flop around as my evil dad moved her. I stood there for about 10 seconds motionless.
I shouted as loud as I cold "what the FUCK do you think your doing" he let go of my mum, our eyes met fixed, evils meets good. His face red full I heat and vengefulness. I he said "go way little boy" I looked at him I was ready to fight him. I said "NO". My mum was resting on the floor and she was breathless, my dad looked at her, her moved over to her and flung her across the floor. It seemed that he didn't care what I was seeing.
I said in an aggressive tone "leave her alone". He ignored my and kicked her while she was in the floor. She was helpless and she looked at my as if to say 'do something'. She gasped as my dad kicked her.
I repeated to my dad "leave her alone" her looks at me and said to me "what can you do"
"A lot"
In seconds I had lurched myself at my dads face my fist closed and my own power I had never felt before. The first punch targeted right at his nose, it was a direct hit it stunned him.
He swung his arm to target my face, he missed. His arm flung around and ended up flopping in mid air. It was seconds before I threw another punch this time it was aimed at the stomach, it was a direct hit. He leaned forwards with his arms on his stomach and he was gasping for breath. My mum stood there in amazement, I didn't know why it could have been because of my strength or the fact that someone was standing up to that asshole. It was moments after he brought himself to his feet. He was dazed and disorientated. He tried to punch my again, this time he got me in the left arm. He moaned for a second in pain and I looked him in the eye and lurched myself at him. First I hit his head and then his stomach. Both hits got him. He stood there in second and retaliated he went for my arm again he hit it but this time it wasn't a full hit he then aimed at my stomach in a sharp movement I moved causing him to miss.
In a split second I lifted my foot and targeted his stomach, it hit him full on and he fell to the ground. I stood there for a moment and looked at him. Sweat dripping from my forehead, my heart racing beating ten times faster then ever before. I looked around and saw my mum standing there wiping her tears from her face. She stood there and with one look we knew what each other was thinking. I looked at my dad, him lying there in pain, his arms curled around his stomach like a hedgehog defending himself. His face red with anger. I could see his eye was black with a hint of blue where I hit it. He look up at my and whispered "why, what did I do?" I said in a remorseful tone "you hit a woman, not just any women it was my mum" with a sigh he replied "uuurrr…..I'm….I….I'm sorry".
I looked at the time it was 6:30pm, "shit" I shouted. My mum gave me the sternest look ever; I looked at her as if to say 'so what'. I ran to the phone I franticly got my mobile and searched for Cloud's number I dialled the number as fast as I could, it seemed to take the telephone forever to dial, it finally dialled the number and it rang and rang and rang but there was no answer, at this point is was almost 6:40pm. The film I wanted to go and see started at 7:00pm and it took about 20 mineuts to get to the cinema from where the school was.
I knew it was too late, I put down the phone. I went into the front room were the main T.V was, it had cable. The T.V stood on a Chester draw set. It was a dark colour with hints of light brown making it look like it was made from two types of wood. I slung myself to the sofa.
It was too late to go now and I knew that my chance with Kairi had gone. I don't know what is gonna happen now but one thing is for sure, things will change at home. Who knows what will happen between me and Kairi.
