I was alone. I was always alone. I was coming home from my grandmother, Patricia's house one day when I was 5 and a half. I had just came through the door when I already heard yelling. You see my dad is abusive and hurts both my mom and me. My dad, Michael always yells at my mom, Tabitha. My mom was a very strong person when it comes to pain. Just about 98% of any type of pain she feels is like nothing to her. But when it came to mental pain she started to break down and cry. My dad always hurts her....he was a very cruel man. My mother was very kind and sweet. But me, well I'm very quiet and very much of a loner. My birthday was in exactly 2 days from then. I was turning 6 and would be starting school soon. And yes I know that most kids start school at 5 but my birthday is November 15 so they held me back for school. I was nervous at the thought of new people.

(time skip 2 days)

I just woke up and for once I didn't hear yelling. I remembered that it was birthday. I jumped up and got dressed then left my room and went to the kitchen then got something to eat and to drink. After that I went into my parents room and saw that my mom looked beat up again, my dad was asleep. I decided that I knew my grandmother would be awake and so would my grandfather, Michael. I got excited and grabbed a can of soda then ran out the door with my dog Samuel but I just call him Sammie or Sam. He was dust brown with with white mixed in. He had a bushy tail and floppy ears and well all of his fur was very soft fluffy. He saw sweet and kind. I loved Samuel. We ran to my grandparents house and I heard there dog, Spots. Spots was a very pretty Dalmatian. He was as playful and always happy. Since me and grandparents lived next to each other out in the woods with no one else really around. Spots was barking in happiness as his tail wagged and he ran over tackling me to the ground. My other grandmother on my mom's side who I call meme was there amd she had her 3 pet wolfs that I loved so much. My favorite was the completely snow white one who I called snow because of her fur. Her fur felt like silk and looked extremely soft. She was also the biggest of the 3.  The other to were also very pretty. Another one was black and his name was shade. He had black cotton like fur. He looked ready to kill someone all the time. He seemed like he had a heart of stone but he didn't. He saw nice. The last one had fur color the mix of white and gray but her fur looked like a light glowing purple that looked like metal, it looked like it wasn't soft but it was. She was calm and quiet. She never really made any problems for people. She was really laid back and easy going. But anyway, I ran inside my grandparents house and saw my grandmother. She smiled and said "Hi honey. How are you?"  I smiled back and said "Hi hi grandma. Im great. You?"  She nodded and walked over to the kitchen counter and started to drink what I guessed was her coffee. I saw my grandfather walk in and smile when I looked at him. He said "Hi pumpkin how you doing?"  I once again smiles and said "I'm fine. You?"  He smiles and nodded like my grandmother and sat down at the kitchen counter. He said "So today's your birthday. And you're 6. You'll be starting school soon." He turned to me and hugged me and said "Happy birthday pumpkin!"  I smiled and hugged back saying  "Thanks papa."  He put me down and got up then walked off somewhere. I turned to my grandmother and waced she said "Happy birthday honey." She turned and picked up a bag then handed it to me and said  "Here this is for you."  My papa came back with another big bag and sat it down in front of me saying "this is for you as well."  I smiled as I started opening gifts.

(time skip  5 hours)

I left a long while later and went home. When I went inside I saw my dad watching tv and mom smiling at me. She came over and hugged me saying  "Sweetie happy birthday."  My dad turned to me and smiled saying "Happy birthday."  He then went back to watching tv. The rest of the day u had a party. But later that night my dad started hurting me...

(One week later)

My dad left for work hours ago and my mom was packing all of our things except my dad's things for some reason. Later that day my dad came home went to sleep. My mom didn't let me go to sleep so I was watching tv. She came over and grabbed my hand pulling me up off the couch them said  "Honey get in my car. Don't ask anything just get in and hurry."  I nodded and did as I was told. I got in my mom's car and waited.  She was putting all the boxes in her car then got in and started driving away from home. I asked "Mommy? Where we going so late?"  She glanced at me for a second then went back to looking at the road as she said "We're going to leave your father. I don't want us to get hurt anymore."  Even if my dad was mean to me I still loved him, he was my dad and part of my family. I started crying. My mom didn't stop. She kept driving untill we were at her work. She parked the car and put the seat back so she was laying down. She fell asleep there and I fell asleep after crying for a long time.
