His palm swung against my cheek, the harsh sound was deafening.
"Noah-"
His hands clenched both sides of my cheeks before I could continue. "Don't you dare utter my name." He spat causing me to flinch further.
My hands clenched by my side, my head spinning as he continued to hurl more insults at me. After a while he finally let go of my face and pushed me causing me to bump into a desk.
He turned around to leave but I reached out, grabbing the bottom of his trouser. I felt pathetic, worthless even but if Noah didn't want me as well then...
"Noah-" I called, swallowing thickly. "Please just tell me-". His boot collided with my jaw causing me to groan in pain.
"You stupid mutt. Never hold me again." He scowled staring at me like I was dirt on his shoe and maybe I was. "You sound so desperate begging. Noah this, Noah that. Never show up in my front again."
This time he left and I didn't try to stop him. I tried to drown out the laughing voices, the mocking tones and the several faces but everything only grew louder and louder.
My head spun for a bit and I fell back with a thud. The voices slowly started to die down and then I heard someone calling out to me. A familiar face popped into my blurry figure.
Oh it's Mrs Emma. She was here all along.
