Sweet silence
As I sit in the corner wondering want has happened these past few days I wonder if I have done some thing wrong to deserve this. Three months ago I was walking past my favorite candy shop where the guy that I liked worked. His name was jimmy he was my age but I was always shy and clumsy around him. Maybe it was because I liked him but I was nervous around him. He would always give me a lollypop and I would stand outside in silence thinking about him all day. One day I went to the candy shop and he had a black eye.
"What on earth happened to your face Jim?"
"Nothin Lilly I can't talk or my pops is gonna lay another one on me he been drinkin cause mamas not gettin better you better go I'll talk to you later ok ?"
"OK jimmy you take care now "
The next day it had just gotten worse until I went to see jimmy and he was so scared and so happy to see me at the same time he kissed me smack on the lips and being so fond of him as I was I kissed him back his papa came out swinging a pistil in one hand a bottle of whiskey in the other.
"papa please don't hurt her"
"oh I'm not here for her I'm here for you your mamas dead because of you ya know"
"papa please "
"no! You deserve the same fate as your mama!" He screamed and shot jimmy three times in the chest he died instantly
Then his father came at me and hit me in the back of the head with his pistol then it all blacked out I woke up disheveled with my garments all ripped and scratched and my stomach felt like it was burning and I was bleeding be tween my legs I tried to walk away but I could not ,movement caused me pain so I just turned over and then saw a face Jimmy's father he stepped on my throat and kept pushing harder and harder then I could not breathe or scream my voice did not work I blacked out. When I woke up I was at my house I was bandaged and fixed up and my mama looking at me.
"oh my sweet child I'm so sorry please don't try to speak there's no use to is see your mute oh my darlin child I'm so sorry "
I tried to talk anyway but it didn't work and so I cried till my eyes were red.Then I saw a box marked Lilly & Jimmy and in there was a whole years worth of lollypops and a picture of jimmy I jumped off of my bed screamed silently and sat in this corner wondering if I deserve this if this what I get for being in love to have the person I love killed by his father and then raped by that same man and all I get is a box of lollypops. Now I realize that love makes you stronger. The next day I went by Jimmy's grave and talked to him while eating my lollypop then I looked to the sky and saw his face and so I sat dreaming of seeing him again in sweet silence.
THE END
