Prologue

 

 

    Warm liquid spread underneath him waking the child.  His heart thudded.  Cold sweat joined the urine soaking the sheet.  Panic made his breath come in short sharp spurts.  Tears welled in his eyes.  He tried to calm down with no avail.  He must think.  He reasoned with himself.  She warned him if he wet the bed, again she would whip him with the cord from the sewing machine.  His back still hurt from the last beating.  She said she would whip him worse than before.

    He knew she meant it.  He had endured her wrath before.  Last night after his bath, he stood before the mirror.  He looked over his shoulder at his back.  The red marks were fading leaving long jagged scars.  He turned away; he couldn’t bear to look at the image of himself.  He was ugly his mother told him so.  Loneliness and despair overwhelmed him.

    Last Sunday he had been excited.  The church at the corner was having a Sunday school campaign.  They were inviting children in the neighborhood to join their small group. 

   Someone had thrown away the flier advertising the drive.  He picked it up off the street.  He looked around to see if anyone saw him.  He hid the paper inside his shirt.  Running behind the garage he eagerly read it.  He decided to go.  He was excited.  Here at last he would be loved.

    ttle boy.”
