CHAPTER FOUR

The end

A dreamless sleep is the first thought Lizzie had when she woke up in the morning, after John chased her around her home. She felt, rested and almost content, but not quite. That’s until she got a flashback from the night before of John practically chasing her with his private in his hands, at least that’s what she thinks it was. Never having had seen a males privates before, she was not positive. But it made sense since, it looked to be a part of him and it was in his private area. The area he seemed to touch a majority of the time while he was staring at her.

Her heart starts to pound in her chest and she felt herself unconsciously starting to rock her body, to soothe herself. That’s become an automatic reaction for her lately. Ever since the first time John came into their home. Not having to think about it her body seems to find it can relax a bit with the rocking motion, it’s calming to her. She hears muttering coming from the way of her parent’s bedroom and tries to listen closely to what is being said, stopping her rocking motion with hopes she can hear better. But she only hears bits and pieces of what’s being said. She caught her name being mentioned a few times, John’s name, some curses and her mama’s raised voice. She sounds so very angry.

Only bits and pieces of the conversation were coming through the door, but it was enough to get the jest of the conversation, “Lizzie always…She… When to quit! Don’t you…The lies…Defend her!”

Their voices grew louder and louder, enabling Lizzie to hear each word. Her father was practically screaming his words which caused Lizzie to get more nervous. Whenever her parents fought, either one or the other of them disappeared for days at a time. No word from them, nothing.

“You did not see what I came home to last night Ann. All of the lights were off, the TV muted and Lizzie was not in her bed! I know she was here and safe because I heard her in the bathroom after John left. She was frightened and I want to know why, Ann! I could not approach my daughter last night with the fear she would be afraid of me too. I listened until she went to bed and hours after. Just to make sure she was really all right. When I went into the bedroom to check on her, she was shaking in her sleep, shivering and it’s not even cold out Ann!”

“She’s just been having bad dreams, it’s her imagination. That’s all it is and she always tends to overreact and tell lies or stories. Her imagination gets the better of her each and every time. Don’t coddle her or make her think it’s fine to do what she does. There’s no reason for it, any of it. Let her grow up and learn. Neither of us is going to be here forever.
