Her Saving Grace Just When I Thought Things Couldn't Get Any Worse
On Wednesday afternoon, Mr. Knight asked to talk to me. I took my time walking down the long winding stairs. I didn't know what he wanted to talk to me about and I was dreading the conversation. Carson who was with me, sat on the couch beside me. We were facing his father who was sitting on the recliner. Mr. Knight gave me a regretful look and clasped his hands in front of him. "I don't think it's best for you to stay here any longer." I felt my world start to crumble when he said this. I wasn't expecting this at all. Carson spoke up. "Why?"

I shivered and pulled my blanket up to my chin as I recalled the look in his eyes as he did his worst to me. I felt tears stream down my face as flashes of the dream came back to me.
