Melissa's POV
TRIGGERING SCENE
I opened the door and closed it quietly I was about to walk up stairs to my room but my father pulled me back roughly making me stumble back but I got my balance quickly"Where were you?" my dad spits at me
"I-I-I was at my friends A-A-Ash-tons place I forgot to text you I-I'm so-orry" I say shuttering
"ASHTONS?! WHOS ASHTON AND YOU HAVE A FRIEND HOLY SHIT HOW COULD SOMEONE PATHETIC AS YOU GET A FRIEND?! YOUR A DUMB ASS THATS WHAT YOU ARE" my dad yells at me throwing a punch at my nose.
"THIS IS FOR BEING A DISAPPOINTMENT TO OUR FAMILY" he pushes me down and kicks me in the chest
"Dad plea-"
"Shut it or I'll put you in the closet till your mother comes home" he says angry. I keep my mouth shut. When I was little my dad use to throw me in this closet and he still does every time he hurts me. It's horrible
"THIS IS FOR BEING AN UGLY WHORE" he kicks my stomach again
"AND THIS IS FOR BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT" he kicks me in the stomach three times and then punches me in the face "get to your room you bitch" he says and I run to my room but it's hard to breathe. I go to the bathroom and look at my face. Thank god my nose isn't broken my mother would have flipped. I can't tell her anything he said he would kill me if I told anyone about this. I cleaned up my nose and then went to my bedroom. I locked my bedroom door making sure my father wouldn't come in. I went to my bed,
I went under my bed and took a little box with a lock on it out underneath the bed, I opened my drawer and got the key. I opened the box and there were blades in it 4 of them 2 from a pencil sharpener and the other ones are from a shaving razor. I took one of the blades out and looked at it. I rolled up my sleeve, I looked at my arm and I see lots and lots of scars and cuts from a couple of nights ago and yesterday night. I took the blade and put it on my wrist I slid it a crossed my arm and let the blood drip off my arm to a paper towel I have in my box. I took the blade and did that a couple of times "this is for being ugly" one cut "this is for being fat" another one "this one is for being a disappointment to my family" another one "this one is for being worthless and useless and not deserving deserve to live" I cut deeper then the other ones and then put the paper towel on my wrist and hold on it on there for it to stop bleeding. I go to the bathroom and put a bandage on it and roll down my sleeves. I take my makeup off and put my sweat pants on, I look at the time on my clock it's blurry from me crying, I wipe my eyes and look at the time again it's still blurry "shit" I curse at myself and then rub my eyes again, putting my glasses back on and looked at the clock again and 7:30pm. I yawned and went to bed my belly growled but I ignored it and went to bed.
END OF TRIGGERING SCENE-----------
I woke up to my alarm beeping loudly I groan and get out of bed tiredly I go to the bathroom and look at my self in the mirror and stop for a second I turn my head "ugh" I say to myself and then put the shower on, I go back to my room and get my dark dark skinny jeans a black scarf and a long sleeve shirt. I put it on my bed and then go back to the bathroom slouching the whole time. I take my sweater off and then my tank top I take the bandage off and look at the scars I sigh and take everything off and then get in the shower.
--------------
I get out of the bathroom and dry my hair I put my makeup on and then put my clothes on and get my headphones, phone, book bag and my wallet. I walk down stairs and see my mom I say I'm going to Tim Hortons and then give her a kiss on the cheek and leave. I start walking to Tim Hortons and get a medium French Vanilla Latte and then start walking to school. I'm glad my school is close to Timmy's so I don't have to walk so far (I know I'm a fat ass) I walk in the school and put my book bag in my locker and then going to English I have it with Ashton hopefully he's here today. I have English, Art, gym and science. I sit at my table and put my headphones in and my music I listen to Do It now, Remember It Later by Sleeping with sirens and start on drawing a heart with a cross in it.
