"you stupid mutt! WAKE UP!!!!" i was startled awake by my dad with a hard tap on my bedroom door.
he WAS a nice dad but it was before my mom died of heartbreak. he cheated on my mom. i saw it. i saw him on top of my nanny. i told my mom and she confronted him. to make the long story short, my mom cried herself to sleep without ever waking up. it was just a year ago and my dad was never the same. i dont know if he was affected at all because i always saw him with my nanny on the sofa sitting on top of him. my nanny too became someone i didnt know. before she was all smiles and cared for me so much i felt i have 2 moms but after my actual mom died, she always slaps me. if not, im always shoved down to my knees as she told me to clean the whole apartment's floor with just a rag the size of my tiny hand.
im turning 7 today and i dont expect much from them. i was moved from my old spacious bedroom to this tiny room meant for food. its called a pantry as i had heard from her.
as soon i had stepped into the kitchen, which was a step out of my 'room', my dad called out to me from the living area.
"go make yourself presentable, were going out." he said lugging a can of beer with the womans burly legs across of his own while watching some action movie with lots of gunfires.
i was already under the shower and feeling a bit happy. maybe he knew that it was my birthday today and we will spend the day celebrating it outside. i was so giddy and smiling the whole time.
"hurry up!" he shouted outside the bathroom and tapping at the door to make me feel his anger.
i speed up my routine and was now in my favorite sweatshirt, pants and my only pair of shoes. we were already at the parking lot in front of our old grey beat up car, it was actually her car. she lets my dad use it. she bumped into me as she walked passed me and got into the front passenger seat.

"what are you waiting for? get inside!" he yelled. for a moment there i suspect that this is not something i had expected while i was in the shower. as soon we were on the road and passed the usual diner we used to go to and the newly opened fast food chain restaurant that i really really wished to get into, my heart wants to leap out of my young chest in fear.
"dad?" he looked at me through the mirror.
"where are we going?" i said trembling with my hands on my chest. he just grunted and smirked.
"lets just say, youre going where you are meant to be and ill be where i should be."
4 hours later, my dad opened my door and grabbed my hand towards a door in this big cabin in the middle of the woods. he tapped it thrice without letting me go. his grip on my thin arm tightened painfully as the door opened to a man towering over my own dad.
"is this him?" he said with a bit of a growl in his voice. as young as i am i know hes dangerous.
