Breathe
That's what I always tell myself. Just breathe.
Except it's not always that simple. I can't breathe when I want to scream. To let out all of my pain. To just be rid of it all.

"Come downstairs" he says and then his footsteps fade away
I check myself in the mirror to make sure I look ok, and head downstairs.
"Close you eyes mi amore" Ethan says when I get to the kitchen

"I remembered that you said you wanted this one when we were walking by the dealership, but that you didn't want to waste money on something when it could go to others" he starts
"Exactly. So why is it here?" I ask
"It's yours mi amore, in your name and everything. I also gave money for the price of five of these to different children's homes and animal rescues" he says
The price for one of these is about $40,000. That means he gave them around $200,000.
"Plus, you need a car, and that old one won't make it much longer. Plus, I don't think you'll want your brothers to drive you everywhere" he adds
A smile sprouts on my face as I stand looking at the car.
"Now go get dressed" he says and I sprint out of the garage and to our room
I take off his shirt and my shorts before putting on black ripped jeans and a black white striped crop top.

I grab my jacket and put it on before putting a black beanie over my mess of hair.
