Amanda Goss walked to her car as she looked for the car keys. "Timmy! Come on! Your gonna be late." Amanda called as she watched the front door. A small boy with black as night hair ran out of the house giggling and ran to her. "There you are Timmy. You ready to go to soccer practice?" Amanda asked before Timmy nodded. "Good. You better play nice." Amanda said as she grabbed and picked Timmy up. She put Timmy in his seat as he looked at his father.
"Mommy, isn't daddy coming?" Timmy asked before Amanda shook her head. "Don't worry baby. I'll stay if you want." She said as Timmy looked down. "No. It's ok, mommy." He said as Amanda stayed quiet. She knew that this didn't feel right for their only child, but his father didn't care. "Oh, well. Let's go." Amanda said before she got in and then started to drive. "So what are you looking forward to most?" Amanda asked as Timmy looked out the window. Timmy shrugged as he wanted to feel that he was making his dad proud. "You know we are both proud of you, right?" Amanda asked as she looked at him from the mirror. "Yeah I guess. I know I make you proud but is father proud of me? I don't know." Timmy said as he looked at Amanda. She sighed while she parked in the field parking lot. Amanda got out and then went and got Timmy out and walked to the group of parents. Amanda blushed as she seen the couch and she felt like she was falling in love though they barely had any time together. "What's wrong, mommy? Let's go in." Timmy said as he started to get restless. "Oh ok. I'm sorry, baby. Mommy was lost in her own head." Amanda said before she put Timmy on the ground. "Oh hey, Amanda. What's up? Is Timmy wanting to sign up?" Coach Rob asked as he walked over to Amanda.
Amanda smiled as she nodded before she coughed and then took a drink of water. "Yes, he is. I have to go. Do you need my number?" Amanda asked as she got a text from her husband. "No I already have it from last time. I'll text you. See you later." Rob asked before Amanda hugged Timmy. "Ok baby I'll be back. Have fun." Amanda said as she stood up. "Please stay, mommy. I need you." Timmy said while holding onto Amanda. Timmy and Rob looked at each other as Rob felt bad for Timmy. Amanda sighed as she gotten closer to the house. "One day me and Timmy will leave." Amanda said to herself as she turned into the street. Amanda parked in the driveway as her husband walked to the car. "I think you are forgetting something. Don't come back once you fix your mistake." He said as he stood up. He then turned around and walked into the house.
Amanda groaned as she leaned over and layed her head on the steering wheel. "You are a great mother. You are a great mother. You are a great mother." Amanda said as she sat up and then started to back up. She looked at her phone and smiled as she went through her pictures of her and Timmy having fun. "You are a great mother. You don't need to cry." Amanda said as she turned onto the street and started to drive to a store. "Oh good. Rob is calling. I really hope Timmy isn't making trouble." Amanda said as she accepted the call. "Hey, Amanda. How's your night going?" Rob quietly asked Amanda because her audio was low. "Oh wait. My phone is down." Amanda said as she pulled into a parking space and turned on and put her ear buds in. "Ok, Rob. Go ahead." Amanda said as she got out of the car. Amanda walked to the cart center and grabbed a cart as she waited. "Hey, Amanda I actually had a question for you." Rob said as Amanda looked at food. "Oh yeah, is Timmy being good?" Amanda asked as she started to put food in the cart. "Yes, ma'am. The question is actually about him. I was wondering if he was allowed to stay at myself for the night?" Rob asked as Amanda stayed quiet.
She didn't know what to say since she was afraid to ask her husband. "I am so sorry. You can pick him up if you want." Rob said before Amanda shook her head. "No. He can stay for the night. I'll pick him up some time tomorrow." Amanda said as she walked to the register. "I'll say good night to Timmy for you." Rob said before he hung up on her. Amanda sighed and lowered her head as she put the food on the conveyor belt. "Have a good night, ma'am." The cashier said as Amanda loaded up the cart. "You too." Amanda said before she started to push the cart to her car. "How will I tell him?" Amanda asked as she put the groceries in her car. Amanda got in her car and then she started to drive home while listening to music.

"Honey, I'm home." Amanda said as she brought bags in as one of her husband's lovers left. "Welcome back, bitch. Go and get to cooking." He said as Amanda stayed quiet while walking to the kitchen with the bag. "Hey. Did you fucking hear me?" He said before he hit the back of her head as he watched her. "Yes. Right away." Amanda squeaked as he smiled. "Good now where is that disappointment of a kid." He said as he walked away. Amanda cried silently as she cooked dinner. As dinner was cooking in the oven, Amanda went to a box of tissues and wiped her eyes.
Amanda looked at her phone, wondering if she had anyone to talk to before she put her phone down. "Hey, no crying. Weakness will kill you." Her husband said as he seen her wiping her eyes. Amanda pulled a bottle of her favorite wine out and a wine glass before she opened the bottle. "I'm truly alone." Amanda said as she filled the glass while more tears ran down her face. Her husband went to his bed and layed down and fell asleep before Amanda went to her bathroom and then fixed her makeup. "I'm so glad Timmy isn't here." Amanda said before Timmy walked in and ran to her giggling. "Oh my goodness. What are you doing back so early?" Amanda asked as she looked at her bottle of wine. "I thought you wanted me." Timmy said before Amanda smiled and held Timmy close. "Your the best part of my life." Amanda said as she put Timmy down. As Timmy ran around giggling, Amanda went and put her bottle away before hearing a loud smack.
Timmy ran to her crying his eyes out with his father running after him. "Woah! Woah! What's going on?" Amanda asked as she picked up and held Timmy. "Shut up and give me the child. He woke me up so he needs to be punished." He said before Amanda shook her head. Her husband got even angrier as Amanda secretly grabbed a chefs knife. "No one moves." He said before Amanda put Timmy down. "Run." Amanda whispered before Timmy ran out of the house. "Hey. Where's the shit head?" He said before Amanda looked behind her. Amanda then looked at him and then shrugged pretending to be dumb. "Why you little bitch." He said as he raised his arm.
Timmy ran to Rob's house before a police officer pulled over next to Timmy. "Hey, kid. Where are your parents?" The officer asked before Timmy walked to the car still crying. He tried his best to tell the officer before the officer looked at him shocked. "Oh my god." The officer said before he quickly got out and put Timmy in the seat next to his. "Where's your address, kid?" The officer asked before Timmy looked around though his eyes were full of tears. "There." Timmy said as he pointed at his house. The officer quickly turned around and raced to the house as Amanda's husband continuously beat her. "You stupid bitch. I should've made you abort that fucking mistake." He said as he grabbed the knife. Timmy screamed in fear seeing his father hold the knife before the officer quickly grabbed the radio. "Hurry! I need backup. Deranged man holding a weapon." The officer said before getting out and running to the husband. He wrestled her husband to the ground as Timmy ran to Amanda crying. Multiple cops came in running and worked the knife out of his hand.
"Mommy! Mommy, please! Don't leave me!" Timmy begged as he held onto Amanda. "Hey. Don't separate them. Call for an ambulance." The officer said noticing that the new guy was getting closer to Timmy and Amanda. The new guy nodded and walked away as Timmy kept crying as the group take the husband away. "You ok, ma'am?" The officer said as he gently held up her head. "Y-Yeah. I-I'm good." Amanda said as she breathed heavily holding Timmy as he cried. "I'm officer Terry. What's your name?" Terry asked as Amanda's breathing gotten weaker. Terry looked into the living room and watched the husband being take away from the house. "Where is the god damn ambulance?" Terry asked as the new guy shrugged. Terry sighed in relief as the ambulance and the paramedics arrive. "What happened sir?" One of the paramedics asked before Timmy looked up. "I went to see daddy and then he screamed and hit me. I came out to mommy with him chasing me. He was threatening to hurt us." Timmy explained as detectives wrote down what Timmy was saying.
Amanda held Timmy's hand as the paramedics placed her on the gurney. "Can I go with mommy? Please?" Timmy asked as tears continued to go down his face. "Yes, little boy. I am detective Samuel. I will ask you for all you know about what happened. Enjoy the ride." Samuel said as he put his glasses on while Terry put Timmy on Amanda's lap. Timmy held on as the paramedics rushed Amanda to the hospital.
