A Child Called 'It'
Chapt 2
Every since that night May gave him food , she had been giving him food every night. He would always eat half and save some for lunch at school. She always gave him something new to eat.
May was walking to go find Drew for lunch. When she finally saw him some older boys were talking to him. May thought they were being nice to him. Then they slammed him into a wall. May ran over to them.
"Hey! What are you doing to my friend!?" May asked/yelled.
"None of your business little girl. Now go away." the oldest looking one said.
"Why don't you make me." May shot back determined not to abandon Drew.
"We tried to warn you but I guess I have no choice." he said trying to hit her. May dodged and punched him in the nose. He just starred. Everyone starred.
"Now go away before I give a black eye to go along with that bloody nose." May said in triumph.
"I'll deal with you later." he said coldly before walking away.
"Yeah yeah yeah." May said not concerned about the threat.
"May you didn't have to-" Drew tried to say.
"Yes I did. I don't want anyone hurting you Drew." ,May answered, "Where do you want to sit?"
"Anywhere is fine." he said. They laughed and talked all lunch until the bell rang. After, they went to their lockers to get books out of them. The guy who was picking on Drew earlier walked past and was about to say something until May walked up and death glared him.
They sat during Social Studies passing notes every two seconds. May passed Drew a note that said, 'Man this class could put coffee to sleep.' Drew laughed at that. They sat there half sleep until the bell rang. Everyone jumped. It was time to go home. Drew dreaded going home. May and Drew went to their lockers got their stuff out and headed home.
"I can't wait to meet your other brothers and sisters." May said excitedly.
"Who said you were meeting them?" Drew said.
"I did. Hey we're here." May said. They walked up to his door. It was locked. Drew just stood there.
"Well. It's locked."
"No duh Drew." May saw someone peaking out the window. "Hey. Who is that?"
"Oh thats my sister. She probably locked us out because she saw you and didn't know who you were and didn't want you coming in the house." Drew stated. Just then the door opened. Before May could get in the house Amelia shut the door in May's face.
"That wasn't nice Amelia." Drew scolded.
"But I don't know who she is. Mommy says not to let strangers in the house." Amelia answered.
"Yeah but she's not a stranger to me." Drew said.
"You better let her in before she goes away." Andre said looking out the window watching May walk away. Drew walked over to the door and opened it. May wasn't there. He saw her walk into her house. A car pulled into the driveway.
"Mommy's home and you haven't even started your chores yet. Mommy's gonna be very mad." Amelia said. Drew quickly grabbed the broom and ran into the kitchen and started sweeping. Andria walked into the house.
"Where is it." she said. Amelia and Andre new she was talking about Drew.
"He's in the kitchen sweeping." Andre said quietly. Andria waled into the kitchen.
"Look at me.", she said,"You think your so slick don't you. You think I wouldn't remember that you mopped the floor this mornig and there is no way it could get dirty that fast." She slapped him across the face. "Go do your real chores before you really get it." Drew quickly walked away to do his other chores.
