I'm Skye.

You might think I'm just your average eighteen year old but I'm not.

I've lived in a home with my mom and dad my whole life but my mom left about three years ago. My dad became a alcoholic and was very abusive to us. but when she left she forgot something.

She forgot me...

My father has physically, mentally, and emotionally abused me. that has led to three years of depression and self-harm.

When my mom left people started to keep their distance from dad and I. I think they knew he was abusive. no parent let their kid hang out with me and now I have no friends.

I remember having them though.

I remember cool autumn nights when a couple of friends and I would walk a few blocks from my house to a park: playground dead ahead, baseball field to my right, a soccer field to my left. we'd Always head left to the middle of the field where it seemed darker and quieter, and we would lie down, hands tucked under our heads, looking up at the sky, as clear as can be.

This was one of my favorite things to do. it still is.

Lying there in silence seemed to pierce my every pore, thought, and sense.

These friends names were Beau, Daniel (he likes to be called Skip), Luke, Jai, and James. we were the best of friends until mom left.

I wish I could go back to old times but I can't. everyday I come home and lock my self in my room prying that dad won't knock on my door saying we need to "talk".

Whenever he says that I know he'll abuse me.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Today is the day I finally get to leave this hellhole! I'm moving into a house in Los Angeles with my Aunt Ellen. she's the only person I've been living for. she's always been there for me.

I put the last shirt into my purple suitcase and I zip it up. I'm leaving for the airport in two hours but in those two hours anything can happen.

*knock knock knock*
"Open this door Skye! We need to talk!" I hear my dads deep angry voice yell.

Shit

I walk slowly to the door and open it. I see him. he's wearing a white tank top and black jeans that barely go over his fat hips.

"I know your leaving soon but I still have time for one final beating before you go." he says smirking evilly.

"D-dad no please don't!" I beg.

I the see his hand raise and I feel a sharp burning feeling on my face.

"Your worthless bitch!" He screams in my ear.

He then shoves me down to the hard wood floor. I feel him kicking me repeatedly in the stomach.

Then silence.

I look up and I see him light I cigarette. he puts it to his lips and inhales the smoky poison. he then bends down to me and takes my hand. he lifts up my sleeve to reveal all my scars.

" I see you haven't cut in a while huh?" he says

"No I haven't." I whimper

I've been three months clean. it's been hard but I've been doing ok.

"That's too bad." he grunts

He takes the cigarette out of his mount and places the butt of it on my wrist.

I scream in pain as I look down at the fresh burn mark on my wrist.

I look up at his fat ugly face "W-Why?" Is all I could say. he didn't answer all he did was spit on me and walked out of the house.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
I hear my flight being called so I quickened my pace so I don't miss my flight. I get to the gate and a women takes my ticket and I head to my seat.

I'm in the window seat sat next to a friendly looking business women. she notices I'm staring at her and she turns and smiles warmly. i return the gesture.

I've been taking to the lady for a while and the I realize I need to text my aunt.

From Skye: hello! I'm on the flight now I'll see you soon💜

From aunt Ellen: can't wait! I have some surprise people coming with me to pick you up it will be so fun.

From Skye: I can't wait to see who they are:) ttyl

Surprise people?

When the plane lands I get off and grab my bags. I look at a text from Aunt Ellen telling me where to meet them.

When I get to the place I see familiar faces. I see my old friends smiling at me with open arms just like old times.

I see Beau, Daniel, Luke, Jai, and James.

This should be interesting.
