SOHPIAS POV
I wake up to the sound of my dad beating on my mama again. I decide to try to ignore it for as long as possible. Mama says it is best for me to just wait it out, but I hate it when he has a long beating session, if it is very long I try to get his attention of her for a little bit. I sit there covered up with my blankets and my pillow over my head, it smells like mothballs under here. About 30 minutes later it is still going on. I walk to the door and knock. He opens the door, fury on his face his eyes burning with hate.
"Ya wanna join in on the fun ya little idiot!" He pushes me back and my head bumps against the wall a little
"Cant believe I even had a little baby like you, can't even stand up for yourself huh? This is all your and your mama's fault! Not mine! YOURS!" He says yelling at me, mama to beat up and disoriented to do anything. I get up and run into my room, climbing into the closet I pull some clothes over me so he won't find me. I wait and wait until finally my mama comes in and says
"You can come out now honey, we have to hurry he will be out soon, got to have you at school by then." She helps me out and I get dressed then tie my shoes while she braids my hair. I eat a fast breakfast while she packs my school bag. He is still in the shower as we leave the house; once we get to the school I give my mom a hug and head into the building. The teachers a scrambling around, the tardy bell rings and the doors into the building automatically lock, so I have to enter through the office. They do that so no one can sneak in. The receptionists are huddling around the radio with the nurse close behind. The see me walk in so they turn off the radio,
"Sophia? Late again, sweetie if you keep this up I will have to notify your parents."
My favorite receptionist says
"I know, I am sorry we tried to get here as soon as we could, I am sorry. Please don't call my dad." I say looking at the ground,
"Your mom knows you were late?" She assumes, I nod. The nurse takes me into her office.
"Your teacher said you had another unusual bruise honey, would you like me to check it out?"
"No, it is ok. I just slipped while I was mopping and hit my arm on the counter, it is all healed now." I say my excuse was almost true, I was mopping and my dad walked in spilling his beer on the floor, saying 'you missed a spot' sneering at me and presuming to leave the kitchen, before he could live I let out a small sigh and he heard it. Rushing back to me he pushes me, giving me a slap across the face, I loose my footing and stumble, then fall back hitting my arm on the counter. He drags me towards him and starts hitting me. He doesn't get many hits in before momma heard me crying and came to my rescue. Diverting his attention long enough for me to hide.
"Ok well I will check that out real quick."
She looks at my arm.
"Ok, honey, if this keeps happening I am going to have to call the police, you know that right?"
"I know, I can't help being clumsy though." She smiles giving me a pat on the shoulder and I walk back to class, everyone staring at me. They look at me like I am some dirty wild animal. I am not dirty, my momma makes sure of that, I take a shower everyday and she makes sure to keep my clothes clean even if it means hand washing them in the sink. I sit down in my assigned seat next to Casey, she sneers at me. She is one of the most popular girls in are grade. She is really mean to me, I look towards my only friend in the class, May and she gives me a reassuring smile and I look back to pay attention to the lesson. After a few more hours of different subjects it is recess time. We go outside on the gloomy day, the clouds are low and gray, the sun is hiding behind all of them. The mist is so heavy it seems to weigh you down. Me and May sit at our usual spot under the slides. We talk and we watch the other kids play. Casey and her friends Megan and Cassandra walk up to us.
"The dumpster girls sitting under the slide?" Casey taunts
"Afraid if you come out people will smell you?" Megan says coldly
"Oh please Megan, they can definitely smell them from here, I could smell them from across the playground!" Cassandra says, we are about to get up and leave when we see these creepy looking people walking onto the edge of the baseball fields witch are on the other side of the playground. You can see blood and slimy stuff on them. Most are walking with a limp and missing pieces of skin. The teachers are yelling at us to get inside, we see cars pulling up to the school. I see my mother in her car I break out in a run with May by my side and the 3 girls following. Just as I reach the sidewalk the things are closing in. I rush pulling May along, her mom is just a few cars down from mine.
"Best friends forever?" she asks looking into my eyes
"Forever." I say we hold up our friendship bracelets then part ways, little did I know I would probably never see her again. Just as I reach the door handle I hear a scream, seeing it wasn't May as she was in her car I turn around seeing Casey about to get bit by one of those things, Cassandra and Megan had abandoned her. I give my mom a pleading look then rush toward her; I yank her away from the thing. She gives me a silent thanks,
"I am sorry Sophia." She says then giving me a small smile rushes to her car. I get into my moms car and we pull away. My dad and my mom argue, as I stare at the window, what happened?
