AN: The rest of the story will be from Phyllis's point of view unless otherwise noted. At this point shes almost 8 years old, with all of her childish innocence, hope, and imagination intact. Happy reading!
Mommy didn't come to wish me goodnight today. She came tucked me in and turned off the light very quickly. She didn't even give me a kiss on the forehead. I can hear her yelling at Daddy. Something about "all co-hall" and money, I think. I heard a few thumps. Maybe they're having a pillow fight.
The next morning
Mommy smiled at me in the morning, but I could see bruises and and scrapes. I guess they had a very big pillow fight. I kissed the bruise on her cheek, then went to school.
