I ran as fast as I could, I couldn't handle what has been going on in that house. Tears started to well up in my eyes but I didn't want to cry. I never cried, because that's exactly what my dad wanted me to do. He wanted me to give in to his beatings and cry and scream. I can only yell, and that's exactly what i do. "I HATE HIM" I screamed at the top of my lungs. I loved how my voice echoed through out the woods. "HES NOT MY DAD" I yelled out and kicked a tree near by causing all the birds nesting to fly away. "I-I just cant....do this anymore dad....." I said letting my tears out. "Please dad.....change please...f-for me and mom" I whispered to myself with tears streaming down my face. But I knew he wasn't going to change, he likes inflicting pain on us. But i had to live with it.
