Summary
Two weeks after his mom left, Billy returned to school. Most of the bruises had faded, and there were none left on his face. He wanted someone, anyone, to ask where he’d been. A teacher, the recess lady, one of his friends. Even creepy Ellen, who no one liked. He wished desperately for someone to be his saving angel. But no one was. No one asked. Instead he heard whispers behind his back, about how his mom hated him so much that she abandoned him. No one made eye contact with him. No one saved him.
Billy was six years old when he learned that no one loved him. (How could anyone love a monster).
