Flynn The Hero

Flynn the hero

" Here, you dropped this," he says handing my spray bottle back to me

" Thank you " I mutter and collect it from him. I hurriedly put it back inside my bag

The moment I looked up, he was gone. I sight his bag on the chair where he was sleeping earlier and then picked it up and I ran after him

" You forgot your bag " I yell panting, a smile on my face and he turns back 

" Oh yeah, bring it over here," he says with an emotionless expression and my smile falls and it registers in my brain. 

I just got saved from bullies by another bully......

" How was school Raine ? " my mum asks me as soon as I shut the front door. I hang my coat on the cloth hanger and then bend down to pull off my boots before putting my legs into the flip-flops. 

As soon as I was done, I drop my bag on the sofa and then drag my feet into the kitchen where her voice had sounded earlier.

" Hey mum," I say and then walk to the fridge before pouring myself a glass of water.

" Another bad day ? " she asks me, her back facing the gas cooker where she was currently making dinner. when I get upstairs I would make sure to order because anytime she cooks, it ends up bad.

" Don't worry about it " I say and gulp down the water in one try before dropping the cup in the sink.

" You know if you are facing problems you can just tell me, I'm your mum," she says her back still turning to me.

" I know that and I am fine," I say and wait for her to talk, but she didn't so I took that as my cue to leave 

" Did dad call today? " I ask her 

" He sent you money for shopping " she answers differently and I give up. 

" Okay," I mutter and then walk back into the sitting room, grab my school bag before walking back up the stairs to my room...

As soon as I am inside the room, I shut the door softly before dropping my bag on the desk. I quickly ease myself by removing all my clothes before walking stack naked into the bathroom 

I turned the shower on, putting the heater in warm. as soon as the warm water spills out, it cools my muscles and I relax, I don't know how much I stood there under the water but by the time I came out, my fingers already had wrinkles on them.

I stood in front of the bathroom mirror and stared at my reflection. my long brown hair looked tangled, they were natural curls and no matter how I try to straighten them, they always end up in curls before an hour passes. my dull deep blue eyes and my full lips. all these features I have are what made the people at school hate me. 

They either called me too fat because of my wide hips or too flat because I was thin. you see, I was bullied a lot right from sixth grade up till now. if I report the cases to the authorities, I would get blamed for causing trouble so I have accepted my fate.

I quickly put on my pajamas even if it was still pretty bright outside before sitting on the bed with my bag beside me, the scene today replayed in my head. 

Noah Flynn, who was Noah that he had me thinking about him. he was so cool out there trying to defend me and all, till he turned against me too. I shouldn't have taken his help when he offered. not that he offered. I was so excited when he helped me, I had thought that I had gotten rid of Dean and his friends which I did, I didn't know that I had become a puppet for another guy to use anyhow.

I just really hope I don't come across him again. I should also text Maya and Genevieve that I was home already but I have to call my dad first. I dialed his number, and two minutes later he picks up

" Daddy speaking," he says

" Hey dad," I say managing to sound excited. I was excited to hear his voice, but I would have preferred to hear it while looking at him.

" Oh wow you sound so mature now daddy's little angel," he said, the happiness evident in his voice. I ignored his unreasonable question.

" Mum told me you sent money. thank you " I said

" It's my duty isn't it ? " he said. here he goes again about fulfilling his duty and making money.

" Yes," I whisper and rub my feet as I waited for him to say something.

He exchanges words with another man and soon he hangs up without a word. I am already kind of used to it, my life is such a scary thing you know. I get bullied every day, I can't do things in peace, mum tries to examine me when I'm asleep, she thinks I might commit suicide. she acts like a detective even at home it's so sickening. 

Is there a place that's safe for me?. I ask myself this question every single day. I didn't choose this life for myself did I, I didn't ask to have a flat chest or to have wide hips or anything so why am I being treated like trash. is it so hard to find people who care about me? I remember the look on Noah's face when he told me to leave, I thought he was helping me, it was so cool my legs were shaking with amusement, I had already started to think he was one of the good guys, maybe at least he would be on my side, but he wasn't, he proved to be one of them at the first chance he got, So I have to do what he says now?. I sigh before laying back on my pillow, closing my eyes.
