When They found Me (On Hold)

Chapter 1

Leilani's pov

"WHERE THE FUCK IS MY FOOD LEILANI" Jason yelled as I scurry up running downstairs trying to hurry and make him something to eat

Oh shit I'm sorry I'm Leilani Andrews I'm 16 with a 2 year old daughter and an abusive stepfather. Let me explain when I was 8 My mother married james Andrews however when I was 9 my mother died from a car crash and I was placed into my stepfather's care.

A few months after my mother died, James started using drugs and drinking. I never really paid any mind to it until the first time he hit me when I was 10.I had just for home from school and was changing my clothes when He came in screaming..

(Flashbacks)

'Where the hell were you' Jason screamed as he Came further into my room 'I was at school' as soon as she said that she was slapped across the face 'Did I  say you could go to school?' He yelled kicking me onto the floor 'No dad I'm sorry' she cried trying to block his hits 'from now on you go to school when I tell you too' He said kicking me one last time

(Flashback over)

After that the beatings became a everyday thing like when I didn't clean or didn't cook and even when the school called about my absences a few years later despite everything I've been through I got a boyfriend named Adrian. 

We had been together 4 months before he left me However,what we both didn't know was that I was pregnant. I found out a month after he left. I had a beautiful little girl named Ariella when I was 14 after my 2 months after my birthday. You should be all caught up now.

"Here you go sir" I say handing james eggs and toast "The next time I have to tell you to get me food I'll make sure you don't eat"

 'Lies you don't let me eat anyway' I think to myself I was back away making sure he didn't come behind and hit me like he always does. Just as I predicted as soon as I start moving he gets up and slaps me as I fall to the ground he begins kicking me in my ribs and I swear I could hear a snap after a few minutes he stops kicking and walks off mumbling insults at me. 

Just then I hear my little girl start to cry  so I scoop myself off the floor and travel back to my room, Once I get into the room I pick up Ariella and try to calm her. 

After a few hours I've checked my ribs I think they might be broken I wrapped them,I'll get them checked later. I heard Jason leave an hour ago so I picked up Ariella and walked downstairs look around for any food that I could sneak and eat that he wouldn't notice but sadly the only thing I could find in the kitchen was beer and Jason's left over breakfast.

Just then I heard voices at the door "I think the girl is home" A deep voice said "Her name is Leilani" a soft voice said. Once they said that there was a knock on the door I placed Ariella on my hip and opened the door with caution 

"Hello?" I say low only opening the door slightly " hello, Dear can we come in?" The old lady asked "uhm sure." I open the door completely and took a step back "well first off I'm alene I'm a social worker and  I'm sorry to tell you but your stepfather was involved in a shoot out an hour ago and he sadly didn't make it" I looked at her with a surprised look on my face.

Should I be sad or happy I honestly don't know. "What happens now where do we go? foster care?" " For right now you will be coming with us to the police station. So I need you to go get all your things. Is this your sister" Alene asks " No this is my daughter,Ariella" She looked shocked  "oh ok well lets get you packed and to the police station and see if you have any relatives who could take you in."
