Allyssa Lies

Short Story

3rd POV

****

Allyssa walked to school on that cold monday morning, scared of what the other kids would think of her, it was her first day of grade 2. 

What were the kids like? Was her teacher nice? She didnt want a mean 

teacher, surely she has put up with that enough at home.

Allyssa was so happy to be going back to school, away from her mommy. Every minute of time spent at home gets worse and worse. 

Once she finally made it into the school yard, she walked over to the big building and sat in the corner, far away from the playground. 

She was afraid the othe kids would pick on her because of her brusied body; She desperately tried to cover up, but there were just to many to cover.

The bell rang suddenly, causing Allyssa to jump. How long had she been sitting there? It didnt seem long; Everyone started to line up, so she picked up the courage and followed the other kids.

A blonde haired girl with big blue eyes came up to Allyssa, smiling. "Hi, I'm Rose!" she introduced herself.

Allyssa tried her best to smile back at her. "Hi, I'm Allyssa." She said.

Rose threw her arms around Alyssa, and they were hugging. "I can tell already were going to be great friends!" She said excitedly. 

This caught Allyssa off guard, no one hugged her, not even her mommy! But she had to admit it felt good, hugging Rose. 

They pulled away from each other.

Rose looked at Allyssa and thought she was pretty. She had long brown hair and the brightest green eyes she had ever seen, but what caught her eye was the big brusie on her cheek. 

She didnt say anything though, to afraid to upset Allyssa. That was the last thing she wanted to do. 

"Do you want to sit with me in class?" Rose asked Allyssa. 

All Allyssa could do was nod, and before she even knew what was happening, Rose was dragging her into the school. 

They sat together, and worked together all day, until the last bell rang. Allyssa wished she didnt have to leave, she would stay at school forever if she could; She wished she could stay with her new friend Rose;

Allyssa walked Rose over to her fathers car, he was waiting for her in the parking lot; Allyssa wished she could see her daddy, but she only saw him every other weekend. 

"Allyssa do you want to come over and play at my house?" Rose asked Allyssa. Rose liked Allyssa, a lot! She wished she could play more with her.

Allyssa so badly wanted to go with Rose and play at her house, but she knew mommy would be mad at her if she did. "I have to go home, I'm sorry," she apologized, and then walked away.

The walk home was nice, it felt good on Allyssa's brusied face. The cool wind helped the pain die down, which made her a little happy. But that soon was over, when she saw her house come into view.

She didnt want to go home to mommy, but she knew she had to. She had no where else to go, and daddy couldnt take her! He was too busy working.

Walking up the porch stairs to her house, Allyssa couldnt help the fear that ran through her as she heard the sound of glass shattering in the house. Mommy was home, and she knew what that meant.
