'I did it.... I actually did it....' Lucy thought to herself as she looks out of the train window. Her golden hair falling down her back and her bangs framing her face perfectly. She slowly brought her delicate hand up to her face letting her finger tips gently touch her blackened eye. She hissed in pain at the touch pulling her hand away. She frowned slightly as she remembered what happened that made her end up where she is now.
Flashback
"How dare you!" Lucy's father yelled as he threw an empty bear bottle at her head as she cowered up against the wall. Her hands hiding her face and tears running down her cheeks. "You're worthless! You should have been the one to die not Layla!" Her father yells as he begins throwing knives at her. Some missing her but a good majority of them landing in different parts of her body, stabbing through her porcelain skin. "I know.. I'm sorry." Lucy softly says as more tears begin to fall. "I didn't give you permission to speak brat!" He says angrily as he makes his way over to her and throws a punch to her face. His fist landing on her eye. Lucy screams out in pain as he kicks her and begins to throw punch after punch. Beating up her already fragile body. Her tears, screams, and cries for help only added more fuel to the flame as her father smiled wider to each sound she made. He did not stop until she was passed out. Beaten and bruised. After 10 more minutes of beating her after she passed out he finally got bored and stopped. "Worthless scum." Her father mumbled as he gave her one more kick to her stomach and walked out of the house. Slamming the front door behind him and driving off most likely to go to the bar leaving her cold lifeless body on the kitchen floor. A few hours later Lucy woke up and cried in pain as she tried to sit up. She slowly started to remember what happened as tears started flowing down her face. She tried whipping them away but failed. She slowly stood up but her legs gave out soon after. She groaned as she collapsed on the floor and stayed there for a few more minutes. She looked around and sighed. She once again stood up, her legs shaking as she did so, using the wall as support. "I can't keep dealing with this." She mumbled as she slowly made her way upstairs to her room. As she got to her room she stumbled in and looked around. "I'm going to miss this place... But it's not worth the abuse." She says softly to herself as her tears slowly dry up. She makes her way to her bathroom to wash up. As she gets to her bathroom door her hand shakingly hovers over the door knob. She looks down at her shaking hand and sighs. "Great." She mumbled as she opens her bathroom door and makes her way to sit on the toilet. As she sits on the toilet she sighs glad to get off of her feat and opens her cabinet under her sink pulling out the first aid kit. She picks up the tweezers and begins picking out all of the glass that is stuck in her skin from when her father threw the bear bottles at her. "I gotta get out of here... Hopefully he doesn't come back soon." She says as she finally gets all of the glass out and begins stitching up her open wounds. Once she's done she wraps her wounds and stands up off of the toilet. Putting the first aid kit back under her sink and looks in the mirror. Gasping at what she saw in the mirror. Her fingers slowly reaching for her face touching her now blackened eye. As she removes her hand from her eye, her eyes travel down her body her eyes slowly widen as she realizes how many bruises her father gave her this time. She takes a minute to look over her body in utter surprise. Once she recovered she slowly turned around making her way out of her bathroom and into her bedroom to pack. As she entered her bedroom she made her way to her closet pulling out a big duffle bag and made her way to her dressers slowly putting outfits in it. Once she packed her clothes in the duffle bag she closed it up and got another duffle bag and packed her valuable items in it. Her mom's keep sake of letters. A few family pictures. A few family albums. Her glasses. Hair products. Hygiene products. And much more. She slowly stopped backing once she picks up a picture of her and her best friend as kids. She smiles at the picture tracing her finger tips over his face. "Did you wait for me laxy? I'm sure you're all grown up now. Living by yourself with a girlfriend. Oh how much I miss you." She says sadly ad she gently puts the picture on her duffle bag and slowly zips it up. She stands up and looks around the room making sure she isn't missing anything. Once she confirms she has everything she grabs her purse and 2 duffle bags and makes her way to the train station.
End of flash back
Lucy smiles sadly as she blinks away her tears. "It's over now... I can finally be happy." She says determined as she continues to look outside waiting for her stop.
Lucy's Pov
I wake up to the train whistle.
"If magnolia is your stop, please make your way to the exits." A man on the intercom said. I yawn and stretch my arms above my head. "Looks like this is my stop " I say to nobody in specific as I start collecting my belongings before standing up and doing as instructed. As I step out of the train a cold breeze hit my face softly and I close my eyes enjoying the new air. A small smile creeping on my face as I breathe out. A few seconds later I open my eyes and determination in my eyes. "It's time to start my new life." I say as I catch a cab and make my way to my aunt's house.
