Sticks & Stones
Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.
"THOMAS!" I heard mom scream as soon as she entered the kitchen. I jumped up, and ran to her.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"It's Oliver! He's been injured!" Time stood still right after she said that. Confusion set in, and her words didn't register in my head.
"What?" I whispered.
"They ambushed his party as they were heading back! They're not sure if he'll even live! Sergeant Weinhofen said if he can survive the first night, then he'll be fine!" She explained loudly. I quickly went upstairs, slamming my door behind me.
I rushed over to my desk, reading over Oli's letter again.
'I love you so much, Thomas Sykes. I can't wait to get home to you.'
Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will definitely hurt me.
