Abuse

Meadow's pov.

"MEADOW WAKE THE FUCK UP."

I heard my uncle's voice yelling at me, from outside my bedroom door. Shit, what did I do? Yesterday had been a complete blur since I had been High practically the whole day.

"OPEN THE DOOR MEADOW." I had been half asleep but I hurried and opened the door anyway because I knew my uncle wasn't one to play with.

He stepped into my room and I backed away because I had a slight idea of what was waiting for me. I suddenly fell to the ground and I felt a burning sensation in my cheek. "Shit" I murmured under my breath. Did he just fucking slap me?

"Where's my money?" He said sternly with rough breathing. "Was he drunk?" I thought to myself. "What're you talking about?..." I said confused, looking up at him since I was still on the floor in pain. "Did you sell my drugs.?" He said sounding even angrier. Fuck, I had totally forgotten. Yesterday was just so "blank" I had forgotten practically everything. "No..." I had said scarcely with fear in my voice scared for what else was coming. His eyes slightly widened and he let out a loud angry sigh.

"Meadow get up." He said angrily but Calmly in some twisted way. I'd slowly risen in an excruciating amount of pain. Fuck he wasn't playing this time. Once I was up he punched me in my gut. HARD. I fell back onto the ground. I leaned my head back in pain while holding my gut. "You're so useless." He said coldly, he then turned around and left my room slamming my door behind him in the process. I started to tear up and groan in pain. I hadn't cried or let the tears fall out of my eyes since I learned a long time ago that doesn't solve shit.

I pulled myself up slowly still holding onto my gut. I plopped myself onto my bed and checked my phone. It was only 3 am...meaning he just came back from work. There's no going back to sleep now, I'm in way too much pain. "Ughhhhh..." I groaned in pain while still holding my gut. A perc sounded really good in this situation but I needed ACTUAL medicine.

I slowly got up and groaned. I limped to my bathroom across the room and got the medkit from my cabinet. I saw the bruise my uncle had created- and holy shit it was huge. It was a hue of purple and red. It was even slightly bleeding. I took the alcohol from my medkit and rubbed it against the wound. I groaned and gritted my teeth in pain so I couldn't make noise. I then took a couple of Tylenol pills, put ointment on the bruise, then I wrapped my torso with a bandage. It looks ok...I guess?

The pills I've taken haven't kicked in yet so everything still hurts like a bitch. I've hidden the bruise on my stomach but how am I going to hide the bruise on my face? I don't use makeup, I might have to call Lissa and tell her to bring some to school today. She might also need to pick me up because I'm not skating in this condition. I walked out of my bathroom still in pain and plopped myself on my bed once again.

"I could just fucking kill him." I thought to myself. I've considered this many times before but school ends in a few months and after that I'm free why ruin it now? I had sat there contemplating what I should do and sat there drowning in my thoughts and before I knew it, it was 5 am.

I decided to text Julissa and get ready after.

Meadow

Lissa ik it's early but could you pick me up tdy?

She responded a minute later.

Lissa.😻

Meadow

Meadow

Lissa.😻

Meadow
You responded to "Lissa.😻's" text with "👍".

Once I finished texting her I got out of my bed in slight pain and walked to my bathroom. I slipped off my clothes and hopped into my shower. The water was cold as fuck, but still oddly refreshing. Once I finished I dried myself off, brushed my teeth, and slipped on my sweatpants, hoodie, and Ugg slides. I kept my hair down hoping it'd hide the bruise on my face and sat down on my bed waiting for Julissa to arrive, in about an hour at this point.

After an hour of scrolling through TikTok, it was finally 7:25. And Julissa had texted me saying she was about to pull up. I tiptoed downstairs hoping my uncle was asleep and thankfully he was. I silently slipped out of my house and saw Julissa's car parked in my driveway.

"Heyyy." she said as she waved. Looking extra cheerful. I waved back and hopped into her car. "Thanks for picking me up." I said gratefully kind of avoiding eye contact so she wouldn't notice my bruise. "No problem baby." she said while putting the car in reverse and driving off.
