                  (written from ali's pov)
"pssst Calista" i said to calista in math class "what?" she replied "look at the note " i whispered. It said "Please call me after school, i really have to talk to you" she wrote back "Mom or CiCi?" i wrote  "both :(" That's just how my life was always one or more problems, usually one or the other had to do with my family. I got on the bus & sat next to Leah "are you okay" she said "have i ever been" i replied. I honestly have never been okay & im not sure if i ever even will be. " well, what's wrong today?"  I wipe my heavy coat of base make-up from underneath my eye to show her my big purple bruise. She gasps then says "sorry babe" and gives me a hug. "you know you're always welcome at my house Ali!"  " you know that i would never be allowed to" " oh...yeah, well here's my stop but TEXT ME!" Leah said as she got off the bus. "k, i will"  three stops later and i got off, ran home & hurried up to call Calista. We talked for about an hour & a half but then she had to go to volleyball practice. I hung up & cried  because my mom called for me to come eat dinner & i knew she had been drinking which meant she would hit me. I didnt want to take that tonight. I decided that i just wouldn't eat dinner that night. I took a shower, snuck on the computer, puked from an empty stomach & then cried myself to sleep. Think that's sad; Well Welcome to my life.
