finally the weekend.It wasn't a great time but it was better than school.when massie woke up she immediately put on some makeup to try to hide some of her cuts. the last thing she needed was to spend her weekend with questioning.she could smell bacon and eggs yum... she pulled on a big t-shirt and some old jeans with that faded to an ugly brown from the grass last summer when they went to grandma's in Washington. man she loved that summer. all she and her brother did was play outside all the time with the neighborhood kids.that was when everything seemed to make since.before high school, when everything got confusing and nothing had a reason.those wonderful memories were the ones she tried to keep out of her mind because she knew nothing would be that way again.
massie went downstairs and sat down, her brother smiled at her and took a piece of her bacon. just like him to pretend like we were the closest ever.he doesn't notice my existence at school why should it be the same at home.she rolled her eyes and whispered under her breath "bipolar".
after breakfast her father thought it was a great idea to go to the neighborhood park and play football with her brother and her, she said no but he always seems to get people were he wants them before they can even refuse i guess some people would say that's a good quality but massie just thought it was a death wish. as soon as they got there massies heart jumped with the forgotten possibility that somebody from school would be there. she looked around with her dark empty eyes and let out a deep sigh when she saw the park deserted.
when the family settled down and stared playing around with the football massie acually let loose and did what she thought was impossible after 9th grade, she had fun. although there was some uncomfortable moments like when the football hit her in freshly bruised places and when her brother tried to get the ball from her by "tickling" her on her ribs and she let out a shrill scream but other than that it was kind of a good time.until an unwanted person came to the park and her heart stopped.
it was jacob, the school gangster and her #1 harraser.she wanted todrown in a bunny hole right then and there. she had no idea what to expect from him and she really didnt want to know.when her brother looked over at her sister and saw her scared look he loooked around concerned, he wanted to know what she felt so threatened about, then he him,jacob and mike automaticly knew and told hid dad he didnt feel good. so massie was saved and it was all because of her brother.she got out. hopefully before he saw her and she was grateful for this unexpected kind of day.
