      Xeno

"I'm home," I said from the door before trying my best to reach my room as fast as I could.

"Xeno, what's the rush?" I flinched when I heard my uncle's voice.

I covered my face, not wanting to show him the bruises from before.

"Just have a lot of homework to do,"

"Xeno, just fight back," My uncle says out making me turn back to face him.

"How did y-"

"Your clothes are dirty and you're obviously covering you face. How is it not obvious?" I sighed.

"I don't want to," I looked away.

"Xeno, it's either you suffer or fight back. It's your choice really,," He sighed before turning back to walk to his room.

"I won't force anything on you but if you ever need my help don't be scared to ask," He said before finally stepping in his room.

I continued walking up the stairs before placing my bag down somewhere. I entered my room and immediately dived into my bed.

"Fight back?" I gazed at my ceiling before slinging my arm over to cover my eyes.

I sighed as I sat up. I looked over at my hand, clenching and unclenching it.

If I were to fight back-

I frowned before sighing for what seemed like the nth time. I layed back down before pushing aside all of my thoughts.

I don't want to.
