Hurt

Chapter 3: Dad could kill mum

My stomach cried hard, I needed to eat something, anything at all, I didn't mind. Hoping to go home meeting something appetizing, I felt kinda happy, I won't say it's because I expected food, I'll say it's because something I liked happened today at school after all that show with my stupid teacher.

David, a guy in my class, behaved weird toward me. He had a girlfriend though but I wasn't his type. I never had even a spark of a crush on him but......I didn't know what I felt. After that teacher wanted to put up a show of me being disgraced, I left the class, went to the cafeteria, and got myself something to eat, I sat there looking like I wanted someone to come to talk to me, and there he was, looking through the window not too far from me, our eyes met, I didn't freeze, instead I asked him why he kept looking at me that way, I sighed....and then looked away but the dude kept staring, I kept wondering what he was staring at, it wasn't even like I had big boobs or very gigantic ass, he just kept looking like a fool, I had to leave the cafeteria. Walking passed him was an issue, he used his eyes to undress me.

"Why the butt are you staring at me like that huh?????...are you stupid or something??? I yelled out, everyone close by heard what I said, they weren't surprised Vanessa has always been like that. I couldn't stop thinking of a good reason to explain that long-lasting look David had on me, I walked home still thinking of it. When I finally saw my gate from a distance, I felt relieved, at least I could rest my head somewhere, I thought. I lazily pushed my gate open, and the first thing I heard was the cry of my siblings, I knew they were the ones crying, no one else could've cried that way if not for them, Lily wasn't excluding. Went inside and nd saw mum unconscious on the floor bleeding from her head, my dad was also there still trying to strangle her even in her condition, I couldn't fight my dad, I had to go call someone, not just anyone but someone who could face my dad. That was the perfect description of aunt Felicia, she wasn't scared of my dad, not even a little bit. I ran out immediately to go get her.

"Aunt Felicia!!!!!!!.... I screamed making it look like I needed urgent help but I did.

"Vanessa what's the problem???....she asked looking anxious.

"Aunt Felicia my...my dad....he wants to kill my mum.

I said this with tears in my eyes, without asking any question, she dragged me by the hand and then hurriedly ran towards my house. We got there and saw my dad sitting on Trevor, he felt happy doing this. The poor boy yelled in pain. Aunt Felicia immediately went outside to look for something she could use to hit that dumb head of his, but she wasn't fast enough for me, I had to help young Trevor, I tried pushing him off Trevor, but he stood up, gave me a very deadly look, held me by the neck, and began strangling me. I saw Lily go inside looking like she had to find something, she came out with a knife looked me in the face and said...

"This is it!!!...

she says as she pierced the knife deep into his arm, but he still didn't let go, but I could breathe a lot better than before. I slowly released myself from him, I slipped myself out, he was about to punch my face not until Aunt Felicia came in with things that looked like charms, they looked scary though. I went to where mum lay unconscious of us, handicapped her but she didn't respond, Aunt Felicia checked her pulse......

"she's still alive,said aunt Felicia. I manged to calm down, looked at my dad provokingly and watched him go quietly into his room.
