Just Think

Chapter 2: The start

Tears, lies, broken hearts, and one broken promise.
I remember the night well.

My dad and I were watching TV, like usual. I went to my room and laid down I was so tired. So, I lay there my body resting and making it harder and harder for me to want to get up. I heard this loud bang coming from my parents room. I'm still not sure what it was to be honest. I forcefully get up and go down to their room.

I stand in the door way and ask

"What's going on what was that noise?"

My dad answers me, his tone full of anger and resentment with a hurtful twist

"Your fucking mother is messing around on me with some other dude, that's what's going on!!!!!!!"

He storms past me and walks to the door but not before he paces in the living room. I'm pinned against the wall as I look at my mom leaning against the dresser and for the first time I don't know who I'm looking at. It's as if she was a complete stranger. Loseing all thought my dad yells at mom from the living room.

"Do your parents know about this!! I bet not I'll go tell them I could use the air!!!"

He walks out and I'm still looking at the woman I call mom. She moves and takes a step closer as I go to her she looks at me and says.

"I think I'm gonna go for a while. Mommy needs to go."

I hold her tightly crying and i remember saying.

"No mommy please I don't want you to leave please don't go!!"

Standing there in her lifeless embrace she holds me then says.

"Mommy needs to go. You can stay at Nana's tonight, go and pack a bag."

I leave my mother's arms and do as I'm told for once with out a fight. I quickly packed my bag and left the house walking to my Nana's house I walk in my eyes flooded with tears. I take one blurry look at my father and all he does is come to me and embrace me. His arms much stronger then my mother's. Instead of a lifeless feeling it was one of pure and raw emotion as we stood there crying. He finally let's me go and I move to my Nana's arms as she's holds me, my Bumpa (grandfather), father, and Nana talk. Shortly after my Bumpa and father leave.

I admit when my Bumpa left I was scared, he was so upset and so pissed. He wasn't just pissed it was like bat shit crazy pissed. I think my father went with just so he wouldn't hurt my mother. A few minutes later my Nana left and went down to my house leaveing me alone.

That's how it all started, how I was forced into this darkness so it seems. No, I wasn't forced in to the darkness I was merely shown the entrancre. I did the rest all by myself, what's that saying? Oh right it's, "I can do bad all by myself" I think that's a movie too.

So like I said,
Tears: we all cried honestly
Lies: well I'll just leave that to you
Broken hearts: we all had them that night
One broken promise: till death do us part.
