Tia
After I exit the principal’s office, I could find Perpertual anywhere neither her friends.
The whole day, everyone stared at me like a statue.
I didn’t mind.
But after school, I remember I wasn’t able to take the card from Perpertual.
What was she up to.
I took the roses and quickly rushed home.
At home, I could hear someone crying.
I opened the main the gate still holding the roses.
“She is here mom”,Perpertual cried again.
This time I saw my mom ran to the main gate locking the door.
What’s going on?
My dad was also at home.. He stood there holding his belt.
Are they going to…..
Mrs Benson, Perpertual’s mom walked towards me and grapped the rose from me.
“This is for my daughter”,she rolled her eyes and slapped me.
“You what your good for nothing daughter had done to my Perpertual, Mr Johnson”
“I can see that and I going to teach her a lesson she won’t forget”
My father held the belt firmly, j decided to ran but my mom got hold of me.
“Where did you think you are going?”,my mom asked.
Perpertual and her mom plus my mom gathered around me in circular form. I was in the middle.
“I have been hearing complains about you but today you went too far”
Then to my surprise, Mrs Benson pushed me making my father hit me with the belt.
He was hitting me with the metallic part of the belt which made my body reddish and immediately sore.
Even though I was chubby. My skin was too soft.
I was turn but they kept pushing me till finally o fall in the ground.
Then the beating worsened. My mom rush to the room taking belt too hitting me with it.
I couldn’t move.
I just laid on the floor receiving the hits.
I couldn’t cry. My voice was lost.
My eyes was blur.
Are they going to kill me.
Finally I felt my eyes closed.
When I woke up, it was late in the evening.
I slowly stood up.
I turn and saw Perpertual quickly closing the curtains.
The main gate was finally opened. I had to take my decision.
Hmm… I will rather sleep on the streets than to stay with this killers I called my parents.
I took my bag from the floor and slowly walked.
My body was sore and painful everywhere.
Some part of my skin was bleeding. I just walked slowly groaning in pain.
About an hour, I continued walking I just need a place.
I felt a black SUV following me.
I decided to walk faster then the car stopped and I felt someone running after me.
I decided to ran.
“Miss Johnson, wait up, it’s Elvis”
Elvis?
What is he doing here?
I stood and then while he pants, “Where are you going so I would drop you?”
“Nowhere”
He tried to touch me and I flinched.
Thank goodness he couldn’t see my bruises, since it was dark on the street.
“Come”,he held my hand..and we entered the car.
“Where should i take you to?”,he asked.
“I have nowhere to go”
He stared at me for a while as if he knew what happened.
“Hope going to my boss’s home isn’t a problem?”
I nod no.
We were quiet till we reached Sandro’s home.
It was simple suite but perfect.
I entered and sat on the couch.

My head rested on the pillow, thinking about all the memories I spent with Tia.
Today I was lonely. I wished she was here.
I heard a knock seeing Elvis grinning at me.
“What is it, Elvis?”
“I have a surprise for you, sir?”
“What?”
“She is here”
“Trina?”
“No sir, Athena”
“Athena? What is she doing here?”
“I don’t know sir but the poor girl had bruises on her loser lip and cheek as if she was beaten”
“Where is she?”
“In the living room ”
wore my t-shirt and moved downstairs.
“Tia…”,I said softly.
She stood up staring at me. Her eyes were watery.
I knew she wanted to cry so without saying a word, I opened my arms and she ran into them.
Her face hid in her chest while my hands wrapped around her but she flinched.
“Ouch…”
I tried to touch her again but she flinched.
“Tia… calm down”,I said.
“Please trust me, okay”
“Okay.. . ”
“I won’t hurt you in any way”
I held her hands and led her to the bathroom.
I stood behind her and slowly unzipped her.
My heart pounded seeing the red marks and bruises across her white skin.
“Who the fuck did this to you?”,I asked and the dress fell on her feet.
“My ….parents”
“Shh.. .I would leave you so I could call the doctor”
“No… please stay”,She cries.
I moved close to her, “No one would lay a finger on you ever again, I promise you Tia”
I led her to the bath and test the shower to see if it’s warm. I hugged her against my skin as she cried.
I was fully clothe while she was in her verse and underwear.
The water poured on us as she cried.
My fingers playfully stroked her hair.
She cried more and we reached the bedroom.
I wrapped the towel around her skin.
She removed the towel and I took my phone taking pictures of her back and gave her privacy.
I called my doctor to take care of her.
I knocked on the door, “Tia… can I come in?”
“Yes…”
She was wrapped in a towel.
“I don’t have clothes for me”
“It’s late but don’t worry. I can give you my shirt”
she just nod.
She wasn’t the cheerful. Her eyes were sad.
I went to my room and took my favourite green shirt with my boxers.
On my way to her, I saw Elvis.
“Is she okay?”,he asked.
“No, she isn’t. Do me a favour”
“I will sent you pictures of her bruises. I’m sure she brought some belongings”
“Yes… some books and address of her home”
“That’s great. I need you to arrest her parents and the neighbours too”
“I will do so sir”
“Thank you so much Elvis”
“Don’t worry”
I entered into Tia’s room. I gave her my clothes.
The maid immediately came with the doctor to Tia’s room.
I left them, standing outside.
Within a few minutes, the doctor came out.
“Doctor, how is she?”
“Not quite good. Here are her meds.. every morning, two caspules”
“Okay”,I said checking the meds.
“For now, I just gave a some sedative so she can rest”
“Thank you doctor”
He nod and I entered Tia’s room. She was asleep.
She was in my shirt and boxers. She looks beautiful in them.
I slowly moved close to her, and pulled her in my arms, covering us with the blanket and we slept together.
