"Who is it!" I call out softly. My trembling hand reaches for the curtain to cover my breasts but nobody answers. It must have just been the wind or something... 

I lay my head back against the tub and let the hot water overtake me. It wasn't long before I started to drift off into a sleep, one directions 'Night Changes' gently playing in the back of my mind. 

*DOOR SLAMS*

"COURT4NEE, WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU!!"

oh shit oh shit. Please don't hear me. I tucked a wisp of wavy hair behind my ear as my bottom lip is repeatedly sucked in and out of my mouth quickly. I bit my lip and clutched my mother's jade necklace. 

*STOMPING UP STAIRS*

shit.

*door slowly opens*

i see the sight that comes to me every saturday night. My father. Drunk. Enraged. Violent. He extends a beefy hand and strikes my tear covered face. I fall to the ground and cry out in pain.


*GASP*

My body jerks out of the water as I breathe heavily. I realise I am going into shock. Usually my dad's flashbacks aren't that strong. I feel a lump in my throat forming and I beg myself not to cry. Not again. I look up at the framed picture of my mother and silently ask her for advice. I remember how she used to sing to me as a girl. I open my mouth and the words from my soul flow out....

Come on skinny love just last the year
pour a little salt we were never here

Staring at the sink of Blood and crushed veneer...

Told my love to wreck It all.
