Made For Me

Chapter 7

Jamie's FLASHBACK

Jamie's age: 13

(3rd person POV)

It was a Sunday night and Jamie's parents were having another argument. They both did hard drugs and drank daily.

Jamie was in his room drawing as always. He didn't have electronics like other kids. He wasn't even allowed to watch tv.

"JAMIE EDWARD FORD, GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT!" His mother yelled.

His heart began beating fast. What did I do now? He asked himself. He walked downstairs and saw his parents sitting down at the dinner table.

"So we heard what you did at school. What did we tell you about fighting with other kids?" Said his mother Anne.

"But he was bullying me and throwing my lunch down!" Jamie explained himself.

"IT DOESN'T MATTER! NOW WE HAVE TO HAVE A TALK WITH YOUR PRINCIPAL TOMORROW!" His dad yelled, making Jamie jerk back in fear.

His dad got up and grabbed a belt. Then grabbed his arm so he couldn't run. He whooped him until he was crying from the pain.

"Bad boys get whoopings Jamie!" His father said, putting away his belt.

"Take your ass to bed."

He did exactly that. He cried in his pillow all night from the pain. He would always get harsh spankings.

Time skip!!!!

Jamie's age: 18

Jamie had just graduated high school and already was headed to college. Jamie was very smart. Always top of his classes, passing exams, and stuff like that.

Unfortunately things at home didn't get better. Now that he was heading to college that meant his parents would lose their only pay-free maid.

Jamie was in his room packing his stuff when his mother walked in.

"Jamie, you can't leave us. We need you." His mother said.

"I have to make a life for myself. And it's not like you guys ever cared for me anyways."

"Even if we're not the closest we're still your parents!"

"I'm leaving and that's final."

"James! James, he still says he's leaving." Anne called to her husband.

Jamie's heart began to beat faster as he heard footsteps. Suddenly his dad came in and grabbed him by the collar.

"Listen here you little shit! You leave and you never come back!"

"Fine! I wasn't going to return anyways." Jamie replied, walking out with the last of his bags.

And off he went. He has never talked to them since. Changed his number and everything. He was done.

He did believe that they did love him. They just didn't know how to love correctly. It was hard for them. And their addictions didn't help one bit. It drove him away. It ruined their lives... and poor Jamie's.
