Neglect

You do not know me.

Its always like this, forcing me to do things I feel uncomfortable with...Making me do what I can not.

You always do this. Alicia Davanna Lewis, a blond haired teen with a side braid and the 'hipster' glasses. Made okay grades and had a few friends. When she was home however, or forced to see her grandparents, she had no clue what to do and her farther always punished her for it.

Her mother did not help.

Alicia was a girl with a heart on her sleeves, the girl who on the outside was beautiful and admired by many she did not even know. On the inside she wanted to cry and shout, torn and tattered. They called her lazy, told her she better raise her grades up, told her for the eleventh time how her grandad may die of his cancer. It was all the same.

All the same...To Alicia, she felt hurt, to them, an attitude. Alicia hated it.

'I hate you, I hate you so much...' 'YOU DO NOT KNOW ME!' These thoughts always clouded Alicia here lately. Alicia locked her door, ignoring her father's warning of punishment. This was her only safe place, her only haven. If only she had her own room and not share with her sister than it would be even better.

A click was heard and Alicia lost all hope of forgiving her farther or trusting him.

Her words to him as he left her in anger, after a heated argument, was...

'I will never forgive you....You insensitive jerk...'

Alicia cried herself to sleep, hoping to wake up to her little brother and not her parents...Or her bully of a sister.... Who would want to be near people like that?
