The world was quiet. Everyone was asleep by now. Except the psychopaths scoping the streets for their next victim. Some choose randomly others choose carefully. Me, I'd been planning this moment for years. I intend to make the very most of this moment. Because my victim is the man who calls himself my dad, but I call him my father, the man who beat me for years, the man who let me suffocate under all his expectations, the man who drained all the oxygen from my lungs, the man who killed the only people who ever loved him, the man who killed the only people that ever loved me. The man that never loved me.
My father saw my friends, my brother, my dog, and my mother as a distraction. He saw them as the things getting in the way of me loving him. He took it upon himself to take away those distractions, one by one, forcing me to see the death of the people I loved most. I intend to make him hurt the way he made me hurt. No, I intend to make him hurt more than he made me hurt.
I grabbed my stuff and left the house. I kicked down the door. I raced up the stairs before my father could have the chance to escape. "Meredith, sweetie you scared me. I thought someone was going to kill me."
"You thought right"
"what" he replied in complete fear, stepping further and further back until he tripped over Christmas slippers. "Sweetie w..wh... why have you got a knife?"
"Because Father, it's time for justice to be served." I walked closer to him and plunged the knife into his left leg "That's for Abi" I said screaming, tears running down my face, I shoved the knife into his right leg "that's for Izzy" I screamed "that's for Chloe, and Sadie and Murray and mum" blood was covering me, him and the once white slippers where now drenched in warm, red blood. "And this," I said lining the knife up to his heart "is for me!" I pushed the knife so hard into his heart, and like that years of pain were gone.
I have achieved what I've spent my whole life preparing for. So what was left to do other than die? I grabbed the bloody knife and shoved it into my heart. Now I will finally see everyone I lost.
