"Baby, p-promise me y-you'll take care o-of yours-self and d-daddy. Promise me s-sugar." A thirty years old woman said stuttering while looking at her eight years old daughter with teary eyes.

"I-I promise momma. Don't close your eyes. Please don't leave me." The little girl sobbed holding her mother's wounded head. The woman caressed her daughter's cheeks with her bloody hand for the last time.

"I'll always be with you honey. I love you." It was all she could say before closing her eyes.

The little girl choked out a loud sob looking at her mom's lifeless body on her lap. "Mom! Mom! Wake up. PLEASE!"

"MOM!"  Y/N woke up from her dream which was a flashback of the worst day in her life. Today is the day, she last held her mother in her arms. She wiped her tears and hugged her mom's picture in her chest. "You would be here with me right it that day I-I-"she felt tears built up in her eyes again.

"It's my fault that you're gone. I can't handle this pain anymore." She flinched at the sound of a thud. It was the sound of the door of her room. The door opened revealing her stepmother. She gulped seeing the old woman looking at her with her furious eyes.

She entered Y/N's room with big step and grabbed her hair harshly. She dragged Y/N out of the bed. "Bitch how much time do you need for sleeping? Am I your personal maid?" She said, slapping her.

"Who will prepare breakfast? We're starving. Do you want us to die like your mother died because of you?" Tears rolled down her eyes, earning another harsh slap. "Stop crying you weak, pathetic hoe. Just die." She rolled her eyes and pushed her. "My baby girl is late for college. I want you in the kitchen within five minutes."

With that she left the room. Y/N wiped her tears and chuckled bitterly. It's not new for her, it happens everyday. Y/N's stepmother always tries to find excuses so that she can hit her. Like yesterday she accidentally broke a glass. Because of this she hit her so hard that Y/N was passed out for half an hour.

Y/N's dad? He is always out for his works. He doesn't care about her anyway, he also blames her for her mother's death. Maybe I should die. She thought. No I'm stronger than that. I promise mom I'll get out of this hell hole and make you proud.  After that she took a deep breath and went into bathroom for freshen up.

"Y/N, CLEAN MY SHOES NOW. I'M ALREADY TOO LATE. WHERE ARE YOU UGLY BITCH?" Y/N stopped what she was doing and went outside the kitchen as her half sister yelled. She rolled her eyes and said, "Don't you have your own hands to do that? Are you that useless mommy's girl?"

The other girl's blood boiled at Y/N's behaviour. "Do I need to tell mom about your rude behaviour?" She said glaring at Y/N. "Whatever. Your mom's gonna beat me either way. Since your hands are no use I'll do it." She sassed.

Before she could say anything Y/N went to do the shit she asked. While cleaning the shoes she could hear her half sister, Ellie's cursing towards her. "Here."  Y/N handled the shoes to Ellie. "From now on I want to see you at the door step every day at this time." She demanded making Y/N confused. "Why?"

"Because I say so. Are you questioning me?" Ellie asked, raising one of her eyebrows. "What does it look like?" Y/N said sarcastically. With a blink of an eyes Ellie pushed her and grabbed her jaws tightly. "Ellie, it's hurting. Let go." Y/N was trying to get rid of her hard grip. "Don't forget who you're talking to Y/N. You're lucky that I'm late today or else." Ellie shoved her aside and walked away.

This bitch. She sighed in exhaustion. I wish I could hit you Ellie. I hope karma hits you like the way you hit me everyday. Like mother like daughter. All are the same. Taking another sigh she went back to her work.

Later that day...

"Y/N come to my room for a second. I need to talk to you." Her stepmother, Madeleine yelled from her room. What does this woman want now? She's so irritating. She huffed in annoyance and headed to the satan's room unwillingly.

"May I come in?" Y/N asked. This is what she always needs to do. One time she didn't ask for permission. As a result she got beaten horribly. Her bruises were too deep that it got a week to heal. "Yeah." Madeleine said. "Ok listen up..."

Then the crazy woman gave her order after order, like what she needed to cook for the day and also some other extra works beside cleaning the whole house. "I want all the work gets done before I return home or else you know what's gonna happen. Now get the fuck out of my sight."

Madeleine didn't let her answer. She wasn't interested either. As soon as Y/N got out of the room, her stepmother slammed the door at her face. What the fuck?  She face palmed and shook her head. The things I do for you dad even though you're an asshole. If killing was legal then your beloved wife and daughter would be dead by now.

She took a deep breath. You're a coward dad but I still love you. I missed how you used to treat me when mom was around. She felt hurt at those memories. She was lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice someone's presence until the person spoke. "Y/N, what are you doing here?"
