I'm Okay Now
Chapter Three
I guess you can say the rest of the day went okay, nothing exciting happened. My arm hurt throughout most of the day and in one class it started bleeding again but I stopped the blood before it started to drip on the floor. thank fully I'm going over to Mikey's after school which means I have some more time until I'm going home to have to face my dads fists again.
The last bell of the day had finally rang and I was excited to spend the rest of the day with Mikey. I hadn't hangout with someone in 5 months., and I miss those days when i would go over to my best friends house everyday after school. That was of course when my mom was alive and my dad actually cared about me. I really miss those days. Oh what I would do to get them back.
'Do you want anything to drink?" he asked as soon as I stepped into his house. "No thanks I'm fine for now" I replied. It was kind of weird how even though I only known Mikey for two days, he has turned into a great friend, one actully worth keeping.
"Why dont we go up into my room and do some homework" he suggested. I nodded and followed him up his long staircase and into his room.
We sat on the carpeted floor of his room with our texbooks opened infront of us, but we where to busy lost in a conversation about bands to remember to do homework. All of a sudden in mid sentence, Mikey stopped talking.
"Mikey are you okay?" It took me a while too realize that he was in shock. I turned my head to see what he was looking at. My cuts. I completely forgot that they where there so I took off my jacket and forgot about them showing.
"Katy... ar...are you..." he glanced up at me still in shock, his eyes have gone huge and he was obviously scared. I don't blame him. I had no idea how to respond.
"Mikey.. I..umm" I was trying to get the right words to come out of my mouth. Just then the phone rang, and I was too relieved that I have a little more time to think of a good excuse for the mess of a person I am. I didn't even bother to even check the caller id.
"h-hello?"
"Katy where the hell are you!" I emmidetly recognized the voice and felt tears build up in my eyes. It was my 'father' and he was extremely upset which never surprised me. I knew that if I where to go home I would get anther beating for not telling him where i was. I quickly hung up out of fear and felt tears coming on. I felt comfterable around Mikey so I didn't even try to hold back them back, a second later I was crying into his chest with his arms wrapped around me for comfort.
"Katy, why are you upset" I dident feel like answering right away. how do I tell someone that I'm being brutally abused by my drunk father almost every night. I heard my phone buzzing. He was calling again. I quickly hit the decline button and shut my phone off, then I glanced up at Mikey who was still very confused.
"its- its- well its my dad"my voice cracked as Mikey's grip around me get tighter. I heard footsteps coming from the outside of his room.
"my brothers home" he stated. I unattached myself from his hug incase his brother where to walk in, I wouldn't have anymore extra explaining to do. I slowly took a deep breath of the fresh air, trying to slow down my thoughts. My mind calmed down a little but I was still to scared to even move. Mikey kept his hand on my shoulder and I shook my head to clear up my mind about what just happened. All my thoughts went to what would happen in the future when I would return home and what kind of punishment I would have to face. The footsteps coup getting louder and louder with every step, signaling that they where getting closer. Then the door to his room opened and in the doorway, stood Mr.Way
I literally have this story printed out. The other half went missing. I'll never forget you @Party poisonx never.
