10 years ago this little girl named Aluma. She just made a painting for her family from kindergarten.
Aluma rushed threw the front door from kindergarten.
*Bang!*
The door closed "oopsies" i mumbled.
The mother (Ruth), came rushing down the stairs.
"Are you alright Al!?"
My mom always calls me Al since she likes to call me that.
"I'm okay mom!" As i smile.
My mom looked at the piece of paper i have in my hand.
"What is that in your hand Al?" My mom said in confussion.
I witnissed that i forgot to tell her.
"Close your eyes mommy!" I said.
She closed her eyes and i handed the piece of paper to her.
"Now open them!" I said with a wide smile.
"I love it Al! You are amazing at art Hon!"
I gave her the happiest smile.
I went over to her shoulder side.
"Mommy! That is you, me, and daddy!"
"Aww i love it so much!" She said while looking at the piece.
She goes to hang it on the refrigerator, as i ask her "Mommy?! Where is daddy today?" I said with a confussion look.
"Daddy is working! He will be home by dinner time!"
"Oh okay mommy!"
But it was all an illustion...

I hear the door slam.
*Oh no, here we go again, as i sigh*
"WHERE IS MY BEER AT???!!!!"
"Honey it is on the kitchen counter. *laughs*"
"AL!!!!!"

Cursing!!

"GET UR ASS DOWNSTAIRS!!"
I come downstairs to see my dad on the couch and my mom waiting for me.
"WHY HAVENT U CLEANED UP AFTER URSELF?!"
My mom says angery
"I did mom!"
"NO U DIDNT!"
"My mom slaps me across the face."
I fell onto the ground while tripping over a box on the ground.
My mom starts to kick me in the stomach.
"GO GET UR ASS UPSTAIRS, NOW!!!"
I run upstairs and i pull my legs and arms into a hug and start crying.
