| Maria walked down the streets of Roswell in the rain. She didn't care that it was raining *one of the benefits of being an alien* she thought. "Wait up" Michael said as he drove up next to Maria. "Now what?" Maria said looking at Michael with those eyes that held a blank look telling him she didn't care. "Sorry! I just wanted you to know that I am not going to say anything to Valenti or anybody else." Michael said trying to break the ice. "Whatever" Maria said walking away "Need a lift or do you prefer walking in the rain?" Michael said as he drove beside Maria. Maria stopped and looked at Michael and hopped in the car. She wasn't about to walk in the rain if she could get a ride. *********** "So this is were you live" Michael said as he pulled up at the trailer. "What did you expect, the Evans household maybe?" Maria said sarcastically. Sure she would love to have that. "Hey, I didn't say that" Michael said in defense. "Fine, whatever" Maria said as she got out of the car. "Bye Maria" Michael said as he watched Maria disappear into the trailer. ********** "Hank, get the hell out of my room!" Maria screamed as she rose from her so-called bed. "You little whore!" Hank yelled back and slapped Maria in the face. "Leave me the hell alone!" Maria yelled at Hank, challenging him. "I want you to clean this trailer!" Hank said. "You go to hell Hank!" Maria said as she tried to hold back the tears. She made a promise to her self when she was ten that she wasn't going to cry in front of Hank. "O really, you first!!" Hank said and as he hit Maria in the stomach. Maria double- over in pain. He beated Maria until she couldn't move anymore. She laid on the floor unconscious when Hank left the room. TBC |
