On the stairs

Kenna stayed in class as long as she could that lunch in her teachers classroom. She was in New York. she was 9 years old and had the energy of a young puppy ready to burst out. Ms. Fung Kenna's teacher a small, young Asian, with blue eyes called her over with her pet name for Kenna, "Born of fire come over here" Kenna did as she was told Ms. Fung continued, "Go out side play with the others otherwise I wont let you stay here after school helping me feed the animals."
"Yes Ms. Fung" said Kenna reluctantly, she walked towords the door of the classroom she remembered why she liked to stay in her teachers classroom. Outside on the steps of the school building was a girl named Nadia. She was the most beautiful girl in all of New York. She looked like a water nymph in all the lores and legend she took comfort in at home. Her manners were the exact opposite. she was rude arrogant and most of all hating. Nadia once was a friend of Kenna but then things changed. Nadia started to exclude her form the groups activities and ever told the guy she liked, Spencer, that she like him. she then started to physically abuse her on the front steps of the school where every one would watch. She would pull Kenna's hair, she would punch her stomic, but all that Kenna did was shut her eyes and wish for it to all be over when the bell rang to go back to class. When it did ring every body would leave she would tidy up make her self look acceptable and went back to Ms. Fungs room and sit in the way back as usual. it occurred again at lunch but this time she had a black eye. nobody noticed. nobody knew her pain. today she went started home. Ignoring Ms. Fung's asking for help. she didn't want to show her black eye to Ms. Fung. she trudged her way through the sleet of New York to her home. her home was an OK apartment over looking the harbor. As she walked she noticed somebody flowing her. she turned and screamed his face crying, "What do you want!" the boy a little taken aback by this fell backwards. he said calmly back, "Oy! I didn't mean to upset you i was only trying to ketch up with you and make sure you are alright. i saw what happened today at lunch and that was really bad. I'm sorry. My name is Geeno i moved in to the apartment across the hallway yesterday with my sister and her girlfriend." Kenna seeing that this boy was of no harm turned and walked towords home flowed silently by Genno. When they arrived home they turned and went into there apartments with out saying so much as a good bye.
Genno was writing in his notebooks of all the things he has seen today. he loved writing it got things out of his head. things like his parents death. he was disturbed by a knock on the door. he opened it to find Kenna there crying. asking to come in. Genno gladly let her in set her on the couch and went to the kitchen to get a batch of dark chocolate brownies made by his sister. his sister was a wonderful cook if anything could cheer this girl up it would be her cooking.
