I wondered why Tomika was not in today, she's my BestFriend I thought she would text me if she was ill. I'll text her.
Freddie PoV
I wonder where Tomika is I was looking forward to asking her something today but she is not here I hope she is ok.

I think summer has been a bit lost today without Tomika. Maybe she's sick oh well.

And saw my dad at the door. I thought help me. He started walking over to me and then *punch* that's for not being up and making me any breakfast and I need you to stay home today and clean the house and go shopping. I wanted to say no because I've never missed a day of school but I thought if I did my dad might hit me again I have enough trouble as it is covering my bruises I have now with make up never mind any more.

I set to work clean the house and when I looked at the clock and the time read 3.15pm meaning school just ended. About five minutes later the doorbell rang, I answered it and it was Freddie,Summer, Zack and Lawrence.

I started to pick things up and move them Tomika was doing the same but I told her to go and get. First aid kit. When she came back I told her to sit down and let me look at her head, I cleaned the cut and put a bandage on it then tended to her legs and arms and face. After about half a hour I finished clean Tomika up and told her to put my hoodie on and sit over on the floor. I cleaned up the whole room till it was back to its original state. After I fixed the bed I found Tomika asleep on the floor so I picked her up and placed her on the bed and kissed her forehead and then I left.
