But I couldnt find him anywhere .
I ran to the convenience store , the elementary school , the art supply shop no sign of him .
Finally , I went to the park , the place I always took him .
I wished so much that I could see him on the lonely swinging seat , his figure there .
But nothing .
I leaned over , breathing heavily .

Yo , Ms.
Palmer , what are you looking for ? A whistle sounded from behind me .
Two or three people , wearing hats and masks , closed in around me .
Who are you ? What do you want ? I took a few steps back , panic rising .
I didnt know these people .
1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 6 Heh , we were just asked to give you a little haircut , one of them sneered .
Your mom said your hair is too long .
That mom had to be my stepmother .
I couldnt believe it this woman had lost her mind enough to send people to cut my hair off .
Someone grabbed my arm , pulling me roughly .
I tried to struggle , but couldnt break free from the grip of an adult man .
I started screaming , only to be slapped hard across the face I suggest you calm down .
Who told you to go running out in the rain ? The man with the scissors held them up , then ran them near my hairline .
Was this a haircut ? No , he just did it randomly .
My hair had taken so long to grow out , and I was always praised for how well I took care of it .
I couldnt bear to see it destroyed like this .
I yanked at the mans arm and bit down hard on his hand .
He yelped in pain and shoved me away before raising his hand to slap me , but before he could , a shadow darted from the corner .
It charged straight at the man holding me , knocking him to the ground .
Where did you come from ?! the man shouted in fury , and only then did I see that it was Ben .
He was stumbling , barely able to stay on his feet , but his gaze was fierce .
Before I could even shout his name , he was knocked down .
As they pressed him into the ground , punching and kicking him , he didnt scream .
Instead , he stared at me his clear eyes , for the first time , filled with anger , but when they met mine , they also held a trace of helplessness .
Whats your problem ? Hes mentally challenged ! Why are you hitting him ? I yelled at the group , and they stopped their assault .
One man , still standing in front of me , grabbed a metal pipe from nearby .
Right in front of me , he raised it high and swung it down toward Bens head .
Over my dead body ! That pipe seemed to crash into me too .
In that instant , adrenaline surged through me .
