I woke up to the sounds of crying , and not just any crying , but more like a cry of pain and weakness . God knows what it was and i was about to find out too . I moved here from Tenessee . I mean my life isnt the best , it really could be better . We really moved out here to get away from my psychotic father , so controlling , abusive , and just cruel . This place , it has my name like it was meant for me , but then again there's other towns with people's names . Jessica was a different kind of town . My street had a name that made me feel comfortable really , Dark Creek was the name . The story behind the name was weird , but interesting at the same time . They say that long ago it was at one point in time clear . Now , 2015 , the creek was this greenish / red color . People around here say that there was this family that was so perfect and great , a father , mother , daughter , and two sons . Then just one day out of no where the father went on this crazy mind set . After he killed maybe four people plus his family , he committed suicide with a gun shot to the head . The father supposedly drowned his whole family along with the four others . It had finally got to him the guilt ate away to where his mind had no more coverage. My mom was saying what a great impact it would be on me and all that good stuff . Honestly she couldnt have been anymore wrong. I guess i should introduce myself and how my life functions ... My name is Jessica , i am 14 years old . I had a boyfriend and the two best friends everyone wishes they had . You see my father was sane at some point in time , but something changed in him the past couple of months . Now hes just kind of abusive and it doesn't help that he mixes his meds with alcohol. My favorite color is black , my hair is a dark , dark brown , black almost ... my eyes are an icy grey , and i love converse ! My mom really isn't the same as she was before the devorce . We all used to be a happy family i promise . She really is a fun mother , but not really happy , more like she's pretending to be . She doesn't think i notice , but i do .somwtimes she tries to hard to be okay ....
