3rd POV
{~Flashbacks~}
"Do you have to go?" A teenage girl with brown hair asks while sitting on a bed and looking up at a man with darker hair who was packing a duffel bag with weapons and food.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A bald, pale woman lays on a bed in front of her looking sick "Baby, C'mere and read to me please?" She points to a book on the nightstand that reads 'The complete Grimm fairytales.' The girl walks over and grabs the book before curling up next to the woman.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The man looks at the girl and says "Your mom needs a doctor. There's plenty traveling about looking to help people. I won't be gone long, a few days tops. Until then, take care of your mom" the man leans over and kisses the girl's head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The girl holds a bucket as the woman from before vomits into it. The sounds of her retching echoes through the empty house. The girl rubs the woman's back in comfort, and holds back her tears of distress in seeing the woman in pain.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The woman appears looking younger and healthier and playing with the man. They seem to be looking for something before they yank up a blanket on the bed revealing underneath it. There was the teenage girl, who was a child now, giggling at being found.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Baby? Could you check the traps please? Make sure that there's nothing caught in them" the sickly woman asks as the girl gives her soup "Yeah, okay, mom" she then kissed her mom's head and grabs a baseball bat "I'll be right back" the woman nods "See you soon..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The man dragged the little girl out from underneath the bed and began tickling her. The woman laughed and smiled fondly at the sight. The girls squeals echoed throughout the warm, happy home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mom? I'm back" the girl calls out as she re-enters the home. She walks to the bedroom where her ill mother lays. Only to find a note taped to the door saying 'Please Don't Leave Me Like This ♥️' Confused and scared the girl slowly opens the door only for her face to morph into one of horror.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The teenager and her mother were waiting outside of a high school when a creepy man walks up and starts making lewd comments towards both of them. Disgusting and disturbing them. They attempt to walk away, peacefully, but the man suddenly grabs the girl and yanks her back sneering in her face and calling her a rude bitch.
He doesn't see the incoming fist until it's too late.
The man from before starts wailing on the pervert making the girl cry out "Dad!" Only to be pulled away from the horrible scene by her mother.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The girl walks in from school only to find her father sitting on the couch playing video games. She shakes her head in disappointment before entering the kitchen to see her mom doing taxes and going over bills that were past due "Need some help?" The girl asks.
Her mother shakily smiled and shakes her head "No, baby, I'm fine. You go do your homework, alright?" The girl nods and kissed her mom's cheek before leaving.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The girl walks in from school only to hear arguing coming from the kitchen. She walks over hoping to defuse the situation only to hear "Out of everyone you could've slept with it had to be Janine! My best friend! Seriously?!" Her mother yells.
