Maybe She's Breaking?

Dumb.

Mike hung out with his friends last night, and pretty much the second he left, Ellie told my mom she was leaving to meet Derrick. She came home limping slightly and balling her eyes out, but no one else saw. They were all already in bed asleep.

I know. I’m not dumb. I’m not ignorant. He’s hurting her. I just don’t know what someone like me could ever possibly do to help someone like her, and why he’s even trying to hurt her in the first place.
