Chapter 2 - The little boy
Bpov
"You little thief! Who do you think you are coming here and stealing from me? Me!" the man shouted while lifting his hand to…to… He's going to hit the little boy!
"Stop!" I screech.
I start running towards the boy and when I get to him I hug him to protect him from the mean man.
"You can't hit him! He's just a little boy."
"I can do whatever I want and I'm not going to let a little bitch tell me otherwise. He stole something that was mine and he needs to be taught a lesson. Now get out of the way so that I can teach him what respect is. A good spanking is just what he needs!" the man retorts
"No!"
"No? Fine. Then I'll just have to spank you as well!" the mean man says while lifting his hand again, this time to hit us both.
I close my eyes waiting for the slap when I hear daddy.
"You will do no such thing to my daughter!"
To say the man is shocked would be an understatement.
"Drop your hand and get away from my daughter." Daddy says.
"Isabella dear come here." Mommy said while handing me her hand.
I lose my deathly grip on the boy and really look at him for the first time. He has very green eyes and a funny red-ish, bronze hair? I can't really tell what color it is because of how dirty it is.
"Are you okay? The man didn't hit you did he?" I ask him very softly because I can see that he's scared.
He nods slowly and cautiously.
" It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you. Come with me, my mommy and daddy will take us home. Home is safe okay?" I whisper softly because I can see he's suspicious. I would be too if I was all alone and then all of the sudden someone just offered to help me.
I offer him my hand and tell him as softly as I can "My name's Bella and I can be your friend if you want."
He doesn't answer but takes my hand either way.
"Okay. Let's go home then!" I say with a smile.
I walk to where mommy's standing and take her hand.
"My friend's going home with us. Is that okay mother?"
"Now, Isabella why would he come home with us, you silly girl?"
"Because his parents aren't here and he's cold and probably hungry. And he probably doesn't even have a family or a home." I look at him and ask "Do you?"
He just looks at the ground so I guess he's kind of embarrassed about that.
I whisper into his ear "That's okay. Everything's gonna be alright now. We'll find you a new family. You just wait and see."
At that he looks at me like I've grown a second head. Much like mommy actually. I just squeeze his hand.
"Isabella I understand you just want to help your little friend but you can't take every stray dog you see home okay? You don't even know if somebody's looking for him." Mommy says while crossing her arms.
"But mother! We can't just leave him here. He's gonna get sick. I'll take care of him, I swear I will. You won't have to do anything. Just let me take him home and you won't even notice he's there!"
"Isabella-"
"If he's staying here then I'm not going home either!"
"Now you listen to me and listen carefully missy! I am your mother and as your mother I'm telling you you will do as I say and I'm saying we are going home and your friend is staying right here!"
I don't like the way mommy spat out the word friend. As if he was below us or if he was anything less than us. That's not nice at all!
"No mother! You listen! What if it was me? What if it was me that was on the streets with nowhere to go and no one helped me? How would you feel? What would you think then?"
"She's right darling and we both know it." Daddy says "Sometimes you're too smart for your own good kid. Let's just go home. This has turned out to be a stressful night for all of us. What we all need is to get some rest."
"Fine." Mommy says. She's still not happy though.
"Does that mean that my friend can go home with us?" I ask
"Yes sweetie. Let's just go home." Daddy says while grabbing my hand in his much bigger one.
I hold on to the little's boy hand tightly and whisper to him "Everything's going to be alright now, okay?"
At that he looks at me with his eyes full of hope and dreams yet to be fulfilled.
