Chapter 1

 Nique pov.


“get your ass up in here” my dad said as he slurred on his words. 


By the way he came in i already knew he was drunk. 


“why you never clean up my damn house. you make your mama clean up every damn mess you make you just so damn foolish” he screamed in my face


“ i never make mess in the house for me to clean up” i said under my breath while trying to walk away.


My dad quickly yanked me by my arm back to him. 


“What the fuck you said ! Oh you talking back now” i let out a soft cry as i felt his huge hands smack againt my face . I felled to the floor as mama rushed over to me . 


“Troy what did you do to her!”


My mama shouted.


“Ashley shut the fuck up” 


My dad said, Getting closer to my mother. We begin to step away from him as he reached the door knob. 


“Go clean yourself up and get ready so you can get the fuck out my house” he said to me in disgust.


I slowly walked away from mama as she scooped down onto the floor into a ball and started crying.


“hurry the fuck up we aint got all day” my dad yelled at me as i quickly walked to the bathroom. 

I examined the red bruise on my face that was left there by troy. 


 “ i hate him so much” i said in my head so ge couldnt hear me. The trailer is very small so you can hear throughout the walls. 


I tried to cover the bruise on the left side on my cheeck the best i could. I looked my outfit over. I had on a old pair of blue jeans with a stained yellow shirt and my yellow converse chucks thet were kind of worne out and old but this is all i have so i make the best out of it. I came out of tve bathroom in a quick hurry and got in troy’s work truck. The ride was silent as he droved me too school. I walked in and it seems like people were staring a hole in my body. I got so nervous that i held my head down the whole walk to my locker. Soon the first hour block ringed everyone scattered to class. When i got to class i sat on the back row to isolate myself from everybody. I focused my eyes on the teacher while he began to talk.


“ hello guys , i hope your weekend was as good as mines” 


he through in a quick smile before proceeding to go on “ I - “  Mr.bryan got cut off by a boy  coming into class .


“Your my new student correct?” Mr.bryan said 


“ yeh’ , i guess” he said with a thick accent in his voice.


“ mane aug come sit by ya’ boy” a darkskin boy with dreads said as he through up both of his arms like they were football field goals. 


“I dont think thats a good idea mr.watson” mr.bryan said while shaking his head


The boy smacked his lips in an aggressive way. 


“ unique , please raise your hand” mr.bryan said 


Omg why is he always calling my name its plenty of other people in this classroom” i thought in my head as i slowly raised my hand. 


“Mr.alsina sit next to her” he said while pointing towards me. 


As august walked back here a couple of girls on the other side snickerd about me. Then one spoke loudly so the whole class can hear her .


“ i dont think pretty boys should sit by dirt bags and bums” the whole class laughed . 


I put my head down in embarrassment.


“Thats enough courtney ! Move to the front now” mr.bryan said 


When first period was over second and third flew by quick Then it was fourth period and thats our lunch period. I walked into the cafeteria, grabbed my tray with pizza and chicken nuggets on it and sat down at an empty table. I got on my phone and watched youtube videos until a tall figure blocked my light. I looked up and saw august from my first period with 2 other boys and girls that were also in my first period. 


“Can we sit down witchu’ ?” August said with his thick accent. 


“Its a free world you can sit were you want” i said. 


They all sat down the two girls sat down onside me and the boys were on the other side. I looked around too see if those girls were around because i didnt want them to catch me sitting with august and the others so they wouldnt have a problem with me like they already do. 


“Why you let them girls talk to you like that?” One of they boys asked.


“ i dont like getting in mess and some things aren’t worth it” i said. 


“Right” the girl on the left of me agreed.


“You got a boyfriend?” The one on the right of me shot quick.


“No” i said seriously. 


“Well do you at least have a instagram girl” she said while rolling her eyes 


“A what?” I asked not knowing what that was 


They all looked at eachother and burst into laughter. I got up and rushed too the bathroom where i ranned into courtney and her puppets. 


“ trash . Trash . Trash” they said as they threw pieces of paper on me and left out. I felt warm tears slowly sliding down my cheeks. 


After school was over i sat on the bench and waited on my dad to come. 


“Say ma’ you need a ride” i heard august thick voice hover over me.


“ n-no im good” I hesitatingly said.


“ what thats was that happen inna’ lunch room ?” He asked 


“ u-um i jus- um” i stumbled over my words


“ come on” i heard my dad yale across the school yard and im sure everyone else heard to because all eyes were on me. I quickly ranned to the car and got in.


“Who’s that fuckin boy didnt i tell your hot ass not to fuck with no boys your dumb ass just dont listen. Imma sho’ your ass soon as we get home” he said with spit somewhat hitting my face


When i walked into the house i turned around to me hitting the floor. I balled up into a ball so i can barely feel my dad jabs coming at me. I just sat there and took the pain.
