Avery flinched when she felt his hand on her shoulder for most kind touches were still foriegn to her because of what her father did. She looked at him as he talked and held ehrself tighter then before. "Even if he is not here he is only about 5 doors down from this house." She said to him as she looked at him. "I noticed we do not live far apart when you lead me here." She said to him as she held her leg close to her still not wanting to leave her ,what she called, safe place that help her relax and madae her a bit safe. She looked at him with the side of her head on her legs so she could look at him properly. "And I understand its not something expect to hear or believe in all honesty." he said to him from what he said about him being speechless.
Avery looked at him when he said that it will get better. "How will it get better for me its been like this for years it will never get better in my opinion." She said to him as she looked at him for she did not believe it will get better. "And its best if you stay out of it because I do not want to drag you down with me in this dark world I live in thats the other reason why we left for dad punched a guy friend and he ran from the charges." Avery said to him as she looked at him.
"This world I live in is not safe for anyone at all." She said to Roland as she sighed deeply. "So I am sorry I just can not believe it will get better even if ou promise it will."
