Don't say anything

Just got home

I had been out for a while but my phone had died before I got to tell my parents I was going to be late, I knew they were going to get mad.

I was walking home scared shitless hoping they wouldn't be too mad I didn't text them. I was silently sobbing in the cold as it was winter.

I arrived at my door dreading to go inside, I took a deep breath and opened the door, the room went silent and my dad was staring at me with an angry tone, I braced my self.

"I TOLD YOU TO BE IN AT 5PM ITS NOW 7pm WHAT YOUR EXCUSE THIS TIME" he shouted very angrily

"Sorry dad my phone went flat and forgot to text you before" I said in a very quiet tone I'm surprised he even heard me.

"WHAT TYPE OF EXCUSE IS THAT, GET TO YOUR ROOM BEFORE I BEAT YOU AND YOUR BROTHER CAN BRING YOUR DINNER UP FOR YOU" he yelled as I was running upstairs crying.

I hate this house!!!!! I didn't even do anything that wrong, I started to cry and put on my earphones and played sleeping with sirens on my iPod.

This band has helped me so much these past few years, and honestly I can not wait till the day I get to see them!

I heard footsteps coming up the stairs at first I thought it was my sweet younger brother Theo (who was 5)

I was very mistaken as I heard the footsteps get angrier and I knew it was my dad, I hid under my blanket hoping he just goes away.

He slams open my door and rips the blanket from over me and yelled
"ALEX ITS TIME FOR YOUR PUNISHMENT"

He proceeded to beat me and at the corner of my eye I saw Theo standing outside of my door with my dinner and I sobbed even harder.
