How a boy became a man

I see my mom waiting at the door for me, I saw her expression change from a smile to a look of horror. She ran towards me, hugged me, tears in her eyes and asked what happened? I couldn't let her bear more pain after what I just witnessed. Nothing Mommy, I slipped and fell down the staircase I said. She looked at me again and brought me inside with tears still glistening in her eyes...

I have made a decision, I will not tell her. She has enough to worry about and so does Dad. I need to be stronger and not bring in more trouble. Every wound that mom cleaned, I could see the pain in her eyes. I felt useless, why did I just let them hit me? why did no one else step in to help? What was everyone doing?

It's dinner time, everyone's at the table, and there's total silence. Dad finally speaks asking what happened. All I said was, I fell to which he instantly replies okay and everyone goes back to eating. I don't know what to feel, what to do, what to say. After dinner, I lay on the bed thinking about tomorrow, day 2 in my new school...
