I
Am Arabella
Chapter
4
The end of the
day comes and I walk home as usual, It's raining out so I run
home. I push my front door open and throw my book bag on the
ground. And run to my room where everything is super neat and my
walls are
painted
baby
blue.
I lay on my bed till 3:22 Then I go and get my
little brother Jeremy
off the bus. He exits the bus,
Jeremys crying and He doesn't say a word to me when I ask if
he's okay. I open the door for him and He just lets lose and
balls his eyes out in my arms.. He sobs and mumbles something
into my arm then looks at me and trys to exclaim, " They
They..-sobs- called me a Murderer -sniffles- Caus, Cause Mommy died while
-sobs- giving birth to me.." He finishes speaking and
puts his head back down on my shoulder still crying. I hold him
tightly and ask him "What little brat told
you that hunnybee? The boys on the bus?" Jeremy looks
up at me, wipes his tears and nods harshly. I look him dead in
the eye and begin to say "I'll take care of it"
when our Dad walks in and
says "Take care of what?" I stand up shoo Jeremy away
and say "Nothing boys were picking on him on the bus saying
he was the reason mom died." My father just closes his eyes
then walks to his office without saying a word to
anyone.
