Alexia's pov
l sit on the stand as the judge tells us the final verdict of my case. My parents are nowhere in the courtroom . l can't believe even they don't believe me. My so-called 'friends' gladly allowed these lies to consume them, and once again, l'm left alone .
My thoughts are stopped by the judge saying, "Alexia Storm is hereby sentenced to 3 years in jail for the disappearance of a miss Lillian Collin."
Silence
l couldn't hear anything it grew dark, and before l knew it, the darkness consumed me.
3 weeks prior
"Alexia!!!!!!! get up , you know how your father doesn't like it when you wake up late," my mom Vivian shouted. l groaned when l saw it was only 5am in the morning. ughhhhhhh, I honestly can't be assed to wake up. Gradually, l began to fall back to sleep over time.
Not even five minutes later barged into my room , talk about privacy. " Why are you still in bed, Alexia? Your mother woke you up not even long ago, yet you get back to sleep? Are you really that lazy to get up, or are you just too fat to do it? Have we been feeding you too much?".
God, how l wanted to cry, but never will i shed a tear in front of this misogamist bastard, my father Jackson Storm. He owns a business in the conservative part of town and feels a woman should stay at home . What a load of bull crap.
He leaves my room but not after emphasising how disappointed in me he is , ain't the first time and ain't gonna be the last. My name is Alexia Storm, and l am a geek. I turn 18 in exactly 2 and a half weeks, yet l'm already in university, and u know the drill ,bullies , jocks and cheerleaders. Life's not the best, but l hope when l turn 18 I use my saved u money from jobs and move as far away from my parents as it can take me.
I walk down the stairs to get some breakfast. when I sit down to have some breakfast they turn to me and smile, fucking smile.
They have never smiled at me .
They have cleared told and shown me how much they regret having a female baby. l've lived my 17 years with them telling me how much they cant stand the fact the the bloodline will end just cause l was a girl. When l was young I couldn't understand why my own mother said that, wasn't she a woman also? So at the young age of 7 years I asked her why she hated me and she and da- Jackson beat me up telling me how 'A lady never asks questions and believes what she's told '.l never thought it was right and still voiced my opinion but as the beating went on I just started to comment on stuff involved with me , which always gets me beat. 'So why talk if you get punished for it' I thought at 14. I stopped talking and answering them , but one night my father was drunk and my mother wasn't in the best mood and they both beat me so hard my hand was broken and l had to get a cast.
Vivian turns to me and says "l'm pregnant!"
l'm frozen. Should l be happy? Should I be worried? l have no doubts if its a boy they will treat him like a king but-but what if it's a girl? Will they treat her like they treat me? Will l be able to leave this house for good knowing she's with them? No l wouldn't. Could I get custody of her ? hell no. Will l try for her safety? Absolutely.
"Congratulations "l say after a short while. l finish my breakfast hearing my dad praise himself , god how I wish I could snatch his fake hair off. If l did I would probably be kicked out and I damn well know l cant get far because I'm under 18. I quickly finish my food and mumble my goodbye's. GREATTTTT another day of dealing with people.
I arrived and went to my desk and unfortunately the one person I wanted to avoid was there , the spoiled princess of the town Vanessa. We were never friends and wont ever be. " hey nerd your style seems to have improved over the weekends" she says as she snickers with her friends. " oh really ? thanks , wouldn't say the same about your makeup skills though, maybe apply concealer to your neck too" I retorted back. What ? I said I was verbally bullied not that I didn't stand up for myself. She was about to say something back when my favourite teacher Mr Jones appeared and the talk dissolved.
Mr Jones " Good morning everyone , we got a knew girl joining our university and I would like YOU to make her feel welcome". Snickers are heard again from the 'queen b.' The room fall silent as this gorgeous brunette girl with eyes as blue as the ocean walks in. We lock eyes and my heart skips a beat.
"Hello my name is Lillian Collin-"
