I remember getting that call, the one telling me that my parents died in a killing spree; now I have to take care of my 16 year old sister and 17 year old brother. On top of that, I just found out my fiance cheated on me, with all my friends no less. Its like hitting your thumb with a hammer and while it feels likes it's on fire and is throbbing like crazy you just cut the damn thing off, thinking it would help. Only thing is, the loss ends up making life a lot more difficult. My name is Sarah Jones, I'm a 21 year old high school teacher from New York moving to a tiny town in Arkansas, and my life is about to explode with all the chaos around. What’s worse is that I can feel more on the horizon.
Aislinn's my name, though not many people actually call me that. My dad died when I was 5 years old due to one of my mom's "fits". My mom's a murderer, a drug addict, and a child abuser. You don't believe me? My twin brother and I have the physical, emotional, and mental scars to prove it. To top it all off, my step-dad was my mom's lawyer when she was on that trial for murdering my dad. My step-dad hates both my brother and I, and I think its because of his son, who sexually assaulted me numerous times and nearly beat my brother to death on multiple occasions, and is now in prison. Perhaps its also because of his daughter, who is an all around bitch. Basically, both my real and step family is messed up, and that's why I'm determined to leave this all behind as fast as I can.
My life has turned into a giant roller coaster. My parents are dead, my brother is depressed and mopey, and my sister, who doesn't see eye to eye with me to put it lightly, is becoming our guardian. If only Cade weren't so down; he was always the one to keep us sane when in the same room. He was taking our parents deaths, particularly our fathers, hard. He and Dad were best friends, and he was Cade's role model. I had been closer to Mom, and our relationship was the same as Dad and Cade's. Best friends, rarely fighting, and her being the person I looked up to, my mother was the perfect mom in my eyes. And now she's gone, never to squeal and giggle and gasp at gossip again. Now, I also have no one to understand my style and not attach something stereotypical to me. I was labeled emo at school, but I just liked the clothes. It was bad enough that my name's so "out there", though I don't see how Xyla was so weird. But now, with my judgemental sister coming to town, and the "accident" all over the news, the bullying and teasing will increase tenfold. Sometimes I really wish that I was brave enough to end it all, to be with my mom again.
Hey Guys! So we got this story up on this account and we're hoping you guys enjoy it!
