Chapter 14 Lost Child
A day had passed since my encounter with Troy and now today was Saturday. I was still in bed because I didn't want to get up. I turned around on my other side and groaned. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 8am. Yesterday at school was difficult because I slept late the day before. That night, I cried myself to sleep. I almost reached school late and I had to put on a lot of concealer to cover my bruised jaw.
I had to hide it from my family. However, I did tell my friends and they both had concerned expressions after. They both did not know what I should do, because I told them I didn't want to tell anybody and that did not help me one bit.
I sighed, I need to stop thinking about this. I got up off my bed and decided to go to the park to clear my head. I had a quick shower and got dressed. I left my room and head next door to my little brother's room. He was on the floor stacking toys in a bag.
