"No! No please no! Not her!Please"  A lady, trembling while kneeling down, with fresh and almost healed bruises all over her body, said.

" Ha! How ungrateful!" A tall and big japanese man shouted and slapped her.

" Please, don't hurt her." she said, begging him to not hurt her child.

" Not this time! She caused too much problem! She should be punished!" the man started walking towards the child who is silently crying, for what she was seeing isn't something she should be witnessing at a young age.

"Please, no. Hurt me instead! She's just a child for pete's sake!" the lady ran over the man and grabbed its hand. The man immediately shook her hand away and glared at her.

" Ha! What did you just say? Did you just cuss on me?!"

" She's just a child! She doesn't deserve to be punished because of a petty reason!"

" Ha! You wench! That child broke into my room earlier without my permission!"  he was about to slap the lady but she slapped him first and that range the man and punched the lady.

"Bitch! How dare you! After I picked you up in the trash this is what you'll do?!"

"Yes! You picked us in the trash but that doesn't gave you any right to treat us like this! My child didn't do anything wrong! You did!" She screamed in anger.

" How dare you disrespect me as a woman! My child did witnessed a scene she shouldn't have seen! Why did you have to bring your woman here?! Why didn't you just fucked each other somewhere else?! Why did my child have to witness such disgusting act!" she screamed on top of her lungs, not knowing her child was still there seeing them argue and almost killing each other.

The scene she witnessed earlier was something her innocent mind couldn't process, but this scene she was witnessing was something she was used to, they always argue and when they do, she'll cover her ears, and sing a song just like her mother told her to do. She was used to this kind of day but not as chaotic as this. Even covering her ear, shutting her eyes and singing a song doesn't work. The kid is having a hard time breathing, her eyelids are starting to get heavy and everything seems to dark and blurry.

A loud cracking sound filled the house silencing the screams and cusses. Both glanced the kid who is now unconsciously laying down with her head bleeding due to the vase falling down while she passed out.

The lady ran and cried. She couldn't think straight and just cried.

After a while, she lifted her child and hurriedly went to the hospital. That was the third time she went to the hospital everytime with a heavy heart and the fear of losing the child.

SAKURA

I woke up refreshed after a long sleep. For the first time in a while, I slept peacefully without having nightmares or waking up at 3.

Maybe talking to the only person I trust the most and my best friend at the same time gives me peace. It's 6 am, I went to the kitchen to make breakfast but I found bacon, toast, scrambled egg and a coffee on the table with a note saying "I left early for work. Eat this before you go, and do well in school! I love you!" I smiled and ate my breakfast happily that Mom cooked.

I started my day on a positive note and I hope it ends good too. I took a shower and rode the bus to school. I really need to get a driver's license, I thought as I rode the bus and saw some people getting in and out of their cars. Come to think of it, I'm already at my legal age and I'm almost an adult, I need to learn driving or else I won't get anywhere on my own.
