The Great Escape

Untitled Part 1

The first cut was never the worst, the first cut brley breaks skin, But 7 years later….Thats When the real damage hits.

          When Athena was just 10 (almost 11) years old was the first time she ever self harmed. Of course the first cut wasn’t any damage. The first cut wasn’t even a cut. It was just a red mark. Athena had never really done anything like that. She knew one of her friends had cut because of issues at home so she just wanted to try it, just once. Little did she know she would be hooked.
          “GET UP” it was time for school another day. Another day of being bullied,
           “I hate when he wakes us up” I mumbled so he couldn’t hear me. Even when he was sober he was hateful. At least when he was drunk he wanted less to do with us then he did when he was sober.
          “WAKE UP!!” great now he’s mad.
          “I’m awake” I hated when he woke us up. Mom always came and laid in bed with us and would kiss us until we wake up he wouldn’t even come in our rooms unless it was to turn our lights on. We lived in Hancock County, Kentucky. It’s a little county in the middle of no where.
