The First Day

But i'm 19 (TW)

Abby's Pov

When I got home I ran inside not even noticing my aunt's car in the drive way when I got inside I saw her playing with Isa on the floor when I walked up to her I said " where are mom and dad I thought they picked Isa up from daycare"   she looked up from Isa and said that she had bad news "Abby your parent's died on there way home from the liquor store they dropped her off and called me to watch her while they went and i'm going to be living here with you guys and taking care of you" I didn't know what to say I mean I wasn't that sad because I knew that me and Isa would be happier without them. I looked up to my aunt and said " umm okay are you sure you want to stay here i'm 19 I can take care of Isa myself and I have a job". She cleared her throat " ""Listen Abby I know your perfectly capable of taking care of you and your sister but i'm here now and I don't plan on going anywhere and oddly enough you're parents left you a lot of money for your college" I couldn't believe what she said, it seemed like they didn't care at all it felt like i was just there personal punching bag.  " okay i'm going to go upstairs to process all of this if that's okay?" She nodded and I walked into my room and i just broke down I always wished for my parents to die but i never thought that it would actually happen.

The blade in my book bag was calling my name so I got up and got my book bag grabbed it and the sat on my bed. I started cutting and watching the crimson colored liquid drip down my wrist until I couldn't stop it felt so good to finally be able to feel something. Once i calmed down a little bit I cleaned up my cuts and then just laid on my bed I didn't realize I had fallen asleep until I heard a soft knock on my door. I slowly opened my eyes and saw my aunt standing in the door way she said " hey can you come downstairs I need to talk to you your sister is already asleep in her room" I slowly got out of my bed and felt the cold wooden floor hit my feet and I walked down the stairs. I got downstairs and my aunt was sitting on the couch when I got down there she patted the spot next to her so I went over and sat down. She cleared her throat and started her speech "so when you were sleeping I went upstairs to let you know I ordered dinner and your sleeve was rolled up and I saw your cuts." My stomach started turning and I got really scared because I didn't know how she was going to react. She started again " i'm not mad I just figured I would help you in some way so I called a therapist and she wants to meet with you tomorrow after school is that okay?" I was in a way stunned I guess you could say I wasn't mad at her for it she was just trying to help and I guess is should probably take the help. I looked over at her and said " Yeah that's fine but who's going to pick Isa up from school" she had a look of confusion on her face almost as i had forgotten what she said earlier " Honey you don't have to look after her anymore that's what i'm here for you need to live your as a teenager not a mom"
