Its been happening since i was 10. I don't know why they do this to me. I don't get why my mom lets him do this to me I thought she loved me. But i guess not, since her and Nick got married things change around the house. Nick is in charge of everything i mean EVERYTHING! When Nick gets home from work my mom has to have dinner on the table and if its not he punishes me. Why does he punishes me when my mom didn't cook dinner in time. You wanna know why is because he hates children. When my mom told him that she had a daughter he got mad.Now everyday when Nick gets done eating dinner and had couple of drinks he comes and my room and beats me because he doesn't like me. While he hits me he tells me that I'm not worth anything and that my mom hates me too. That my mom don't want me to live with them anymore. While i scream for my mom to make him stop she is just sitting there laughing that I'm begging him to stop. My mom used to love me before Nick came around but she loves Nick more then me now.
My step dad wont let go to school because he thinks that if people saw all the bruises that they will call cops and Nick doesn't want the cops at out house. I over heard Nick talking to my mom and Nick told her that he did something really bad to his ex wife that he cant have the cops here or he will go to jail. I always wonder what he did to her and why he never talks about her. One day when Nick was at work and my mom left to go to the store i decided to go in their room and look around to see why Nick is so scared of the cops. I was looking around in their dresser and i couldn't find anything, so i decided to look in their closet. While i was looking in their closet i found a box and BINGO their was pictures of his ex wife. There was picture of a bed full of blood and some picture of his ex wife that i believe in the picture is dead. Did Nick kill his ex wife? As i was putting the pictures away that when i heard the bedroom door open. I turned around and there is Nick standing in the door way mad. "What the hell are you doing going through my stuff" screams Nick. Nick grasp my hair and starts to pull me to my room and throws me in there. Nick shuts the door and all i can hear is him screaming. I hear Nick talking with my mom but i couldn't hear what they were saying. They come in to my room and my mom sits on my bed Nick walks towards me and slaps me across mu face. I fall to the ground and i try to crawl to the other side of my room but that when i feel a sharp pain on my side and i fall to the ground. Nick keeps kicking me and kicking me. He tells me to stand up and walk to my mom. I stood in front of my mom and next thing i knew her hand came up and smacks me across my face. I cant believe that my mom just hit me. I fall to the ground and just cry. Nick come by me and tells me that i did something really bad and that i needed to be punished. I just laid on the floor and i fall asleep. When i woke up i as in a car. Nick saw that i woke up and tells me that they are going to drop me off in the middle of no where while him and my mom are going to move to somewhere far away. We been driving for about 5 hours i think and Nick stop and gets out of the car and comes over to my side of the car and take me out and throws me outside. Nicks tells me that i deserved this and that i made this happen to myself. Nicks walks towards the car and gets in and speeds off. What do i do now? I start to walk when a car come over to me and ask me if i was okay i told them that my mom and step dad left on the side of the road. She puts me in the car and takes me to police station. I told the cops what all happen and they told me that they will put me in foster care. I was so happy that i was finally going to have a family that cares about me and wont abuse me.
All i can say is that i survived an abusive family and that i never gave up on myself. I have an wonderful family now that love me. I never heard from my mom or Nick and i was kind of glad. Never let people bring you down because they don't like you, just BELIEVE in yourself.
