i walked down the halls, carrying my book, hoping and praying nobody would see me.

i walked quickly, but not quick enough to stand out so much.

i stared at the ground, tightly holding my history book to my chest.

if nobody sees my face, they won't know it's me, right?

before i knew it i was crashed into the blue lockers to my right.

my head shot up, only to be met by the face of maisy.

great.

i'm not in my usual mood today.

on any normal day, i would just sit there, because i'm used to the abuse.

but today, i felt different.

why is that, you ask?

well, today my aunt is coming over, to spend a week with us, in our household, to be exact.

and you may be thinking that it's a good thing she's coming over, it's family time.

well, yes, i love her with all my heart, and part of me is happy i get to see her, but all she talks about is caleb.

caleb was my older brother, he passed away when he was thirteen.

and i loved him to death, he made me happy like nobody else could.

and when he passed, it took a toll on me.

why wouldn't it, my brother is in heaven.

but that's not it.

she talks about how much better he could've been than me.

and that hurts, coming from your family.

so when i heard she was coming to spend a week with us this morning, i wasn't too happy.

and neither am i happy now.

so i'm about to do something i've never done before, and we'll hope it works.

"please maisy...please.."

i whispered to her, as she had me pinned up against the lockers.

"oh, my, gosh! the freak decided to beg!"

she called out to the others.

the hallway bursted with laughter.

she lifted her leg and harshly hit me on my side.

i grabbed it in crucial pain.

but i didn't say a word.

no, i didn't, because that would only lead to another, on the other side, even harder.
