Same Day, only later in the evening.
Later in the same day...
Kitty got to the super market and parked her mothers black range rover in a parking spot, praying that she did a good job. Though she could legally drive she still struggled with parking. Her mother did "a special dance" on Kitty's teacher and Kitty passed everything. She was good at it all, but the parking. Once she parked and saw that it was perfect parking she got out, went to the other side and took Kathy out of her car seat. She carried the tyke to a shopping cart and placed her in the seat on the front and proceeded to head inside.
Before she left she had asked Phil what he and his friends would want. Of course he ignored her as he drank his tenth beer of the day, so Kitty had to assume what he wanted and what would be easy to make for all of them—Phil, his friends, Kathy and herself.
She decided to get a months worth of food supplies too. Walking down the food lanes she grabbed everything they would need for at least a month. White bread, three gallons of milk, cheese, apples, bananas, toddler friendly foods, ect. It wasn't halfway down the market until she saw somebody at the end of one aisle, the health aisle, when she turned her cart away as speed walked downwards.
"Kitty!" Her sister screeched loudly and reached her arms out for the random teddy bear toy that was on the shelf for sale. One of those random moments in store where you find something that doesn't belong. "Kitty!"
"Shhh! Kathy!" Kitty hissed at her sister, hoping that the person didn't see her. "Shhh, I'll buy you a teddy bear at the toy store, just be quiet!"
"Kitty?" Ms. Pillsbury asked, coming closer to Kitty. "How are you doing? Will—er—Mr. Schue said you left practice very early today."
Kitty calmed herself down as she turned around to face the guidance counselor. "I had a family emergency. Everything's fine though now."
"Who's this little girl?" Emma asked, glimpsing at the toddler with curly hair. "She almost looks like you."
"It's...my cousin." Kitty thought of rapidly. "We're watching her for a few days while my older sister is out of state with her husband." She lied about it all. "We were just leaving."
"Kitty!" Kathy screeched a bit louder, reaching for the teddy bear. Kitty sighed and gave in, grabbing the bear and handing it to Kathy.
"I've got dinner plans for the night, so I have to go now." Kitty said.
Kitty left as quick as she could. Emma stood there with a small suspicious in her eyes. She was going to keep a close eye on Kitty for a while. She felt something was wrong.
A while later Kitty was packing everything into the car. She had just put the last bag inside and was taking Kathy out of her toddler seat before catching something in her eyes. It was a woman from the school. She worked in the cafeteria, making food and serving it to students. It was Marley's mother, doing the food shopping for the food that she could usually barely buy for herself and Marley.
Kitty watched her for several seconds, as she placed Kathy in the seat, before getting in the car and driving off.
At home, Kitty put all the food away while her sister played with her new teddy bear in her high chair that Kitty bought and set up. Kitty thought for a second before deciding to make ravioli-lasagna for the group of many people.
An hour later the food was made and Kitty took out all the plates. She was giving a warning by Phil that his friends would be over in fifteen minutes. Kitty had everything set down for them and was eating her plate now, so that when she finished she would have less dishes to do. Same with Kathy, feeding her spoonfuls of the dish. When she finished eating her plate and Kathy's, Phil answered the front door and she heard a million voices come inside.
Phil and at least thirty other men walked into the room, laughing and talking about some event that had happened recently. Phil stopped in place when he saw Kitty putting the dishes in the dish washer. He looked around, confused.
"Where the hell is the pizza?" He asked.
"I made ravioli lasagna." Kitty told him. "You didn't tell me to make anything specific."
"Uh, I did, you little bitch. Before you left."
"No, you didn't." Kitty said, knowing the full truth.
"And why is there enough of this shit for eight people? I said there was going to be thirty of us, and me making thirty one."
"You said ten people, including you, Kathy and I." Kitty told him.
Phil got closer to Kitty, his eyes grasping into her soul. Kitty, nervous, backed away from Phil. "So? You think you know everything, don't you? You think that because what I said is the truth? It's called use your brain, stupid! And did you eat any of this? Did that brat eat anything of it?"
"I did." Kitty said, then with confidence she said. "I didn't feed her anything."
"So you ate two plates of disgusting shit while I was gone?" Phil asked her.
Kitty stood still, breathing deeply as Phil came over her shoulders. She glanced up at him and faced his icy-blue eyes. He sneered his ice cold eyes into Kitty's hazel eyes, Kitty could of sworn she saw a little crystal in the center of his pupils dancing with a fire dress the crystal was wearing. She sucked in her air around herself, wanting to be out of here and wanting him out of her bubble space.
Phil grabbed her ponytail and dragged her, Kitty fell as she screamed in pain.
Phil brought Kitty into the bathroom. He held her by the neck with her face facing the toilet. He aggressively held her neck, gripping her tightly, and screeched at the top of his lungs.
"Force it out! Force it, dumb shit! Force it out!"
Kitty shoved her fingers to the back of her throat, throwing up everything. She cried and cringed in pain as she felt the pasta return from her stomach and the rest was just that burning acid feeling one gets when vomiting. She cringed harder when she felt Phil's hands grip her neck, leaving behind bruises on her neck. It was just too much for her.
Phil pulled her away when she finished. He dragged her by her wrist and pulled her up the stairs, throwing her in her bedroom.
"Bitch." He said as he slammed the door.
Kitty cried, pulling her knees to her chest, as she cried from the pain. Minutes later, joined by her crying sister who was being held by the wrist of her left arm, by Phil, and being almost thrown to the ground.
Kitty crawled to Kathy and hugged her sister protectively, holding her as if the world was ending. Soothing the young toddler and saying that everything was going to be alright.
"I'm here Kathy...shh...Kitty's here...shh...I'm here." She said. "Hush little Kathy, don't say a word, Kitty's gonna buy you a mocking bird. And if that mocking bird don't sing, Kitty's gonna buy you a diamond ring. And if that diamond ring don't shine, Kitty's gonna buy you a book that rhymes. And if that book won't say a rhyme, Kitty's gonna sing you this lullaby."
Kitty sang that a few times to her sister, watching her sisters red eyes fall into a deep sleep of peace. She carried her sister to her bed and placed her there, covering her with a blanket and placing her new toy teddy bear in her arms. She kissed Kathy's forehead as she turned the light off. "Sweet dreams, Kathy."
Kitty went over to the little bench at the end of her bed and brought that over to her window. She sat there, gazing around the dark sky until she found the brightest star in the sky.
"Heavenly angel named Princess Faith of Hope and Dreams, please save me from this dungeon of Hell. Take me away from Satan. Please," She began crying. "Save me and Kathy. But if you have to save just one of us, please, save Kathy. She's young and she can recover quickly from these bad memories. I've had too many to recover. So please, please," The tears ran down her face. "Please save me."
Her thoughts went back to Mrs. Rose in the parking lot. Mrs. Rose did everything she could for Marley. Even if it meant moving to a new city for a new chance of getting friends, she'd do it for Marley.
The only thing her mother, Susan, ever did was pay for summer camps and horse riding lessons and put Kitty in beauty competitions. She was going to do that to Kathy soon and Kitty didn't want Kathy to go through any of that.
She turned to the bright star and said, "Heavenly angel named Princess Faith of Hope and Dreams, please give me this one wish. Give my a Mama like Marley's Mama."
