So, today everybody is busy. I decided to text my mum to let her know that I'm going to go out. She told me to be back in the hour. I brushed my teeth, took a shower, moisturized then went to my walk in closet.

I choose the white vegan leather top and white vegan leather moto pants both from the Tamar Collection. I pick out a pair of random nude sandals. Once I changed I head over to my vanity.

I apply some tinted moisturiser before going ahead and filling in my eyebrows, applying mascara and some buttercream lipstick from Nyx in the shade Taffy. I take a few selfies before heading out.

Let me just let you know. Tamar and Vince live so far from everybody and I can't drive nor do I have a car. So, I have to take a Uber. After about 30 minutes one arrives. I tell the driver to take me to the nearest mall.

I don't know any places around here so he needs to take what he can get. I pay the driver and get out. He immediately drives off and I don't know what to do.

I don't even go inside the mall since I don't really like shopping although I spot a cafe nearby. I check the time, it's 11.34 am. Not bad.

I order a ham and cheese panini along with some water. Once I pay I head right to the back, I'm hiding.

You would not believe who I just saw...

My dad.

WHAT THE FUCK?!

WHAT IS HE DOING HERE IN LA?!?!

I take out my phone and I quickly send a text to my mum. I pray that she helps me because my black ass is finished right now.

"Get in the car, now."I duck my head and quickly start typing.

MAMA! DAD'S FOUND ME!

HELP!! MY GPS IS ON!! TRACK MEEEE

That's all I could type because my dad is a strong guy and when a strong guy grabs your shoulder, it hurts... like hell.

I could mentally visualise my shoulders cracking under his grip. I tuck my phone into my pants, yes on the sides of my underwear so that he won't take it but also turning it on silent so he won't hear it. DAMN! Why is the iPhone 6 so big?

"Did you not here me? Get in the car." He says it really calm and to everybody else it looks as if his an old friend greeting me.

I look up and narrow my eyes at him. "Dad." He squeezes my shoulder real tight. "I mean, hi father." He loosens his grip.

He used to hit me over me calling him dad, he preferred being my father. Which is stupid really but it was a rule for us. If I ever called him dad then you know what happened, I got beats.

I get up and he walks me out. Stupid dick made me leave my food and drink unfinished. Once we are out of sight and around the corner, he gives me one hell of a slap.

I fall to the ground, my mum is going to kill me but not before my dad does. "Who told you to leave? Was it that bitch of a mother of yours?" I start to tear up as he starts taking his belt off. "Why is she texting me off your phone?"

I look around trying to catch the eyes of somebody but there is hardly anyone and for those who are there, they are just ignoring the scene. Just casually walking past.

My father takes his belt and aims it in my direction. "ANSWER ME!" I don't know what to do.

"Father I-" I drop to the floor and my whole body starts shaking. I act as if I can't control my body. My father drops the belt and starts yelling at me, demanding to know what is going on.

I hear sirens so I stop. My father turns around, I quickly pick up the belt and hit him on the head. I swear to you, I have never ran so fast in my life. I obviously dropped the belt but I didn't turn back to see what was going on with my dad.

All I knew was that I had to hit and run. Literally.

"GET BACK HERE! YOU STUPID BITCH! I WILL KILL YOU! YOU KNOW I WILL!" I don't think his running after me, just in case I run around a different corner.

I do two more turns before slowing down. I check around my trousers, my phone is gone. FUCK!

I can't help the tears that start falling down my face. Man I must look a mess. I'm wearing all white which now looks all dirty.

My toes are looking kinda dry since I was running in sandals, my big toe is bleeding. I'm in need of a urgent manicure and pedicure. I decide to make my way round back to the cafe.

I know it's stupid but all that running made me hungry and thirsty plus my card is in the case of the phone. Luckily, I find the cafe. My dad is nowhere to be seen. I'm hesitant to enter but the person who served me earlier is smiling at me.

I give them a fake smile and they hold out something. My phone, water bottle and sandwich. Won't he do it.

I can here someone yelling from outside. DAMN! I need to save myself. Believe me when I say that I grab those three items while jumping over that counter. I hid under that counter praying for two things. 1) That it is clean here and 2) My dad ain't gonna bust my ass.

I look at the server who looks shocked, I put my finger over lips before quickly saying. "If a big, muscly black man with tattoos all over his arm walks in, I am not here. You tell and I'll sue your pale ass."

"Um.." He clears his throat, "The.. the Bl- the tattooed man just got into a big jeep and dr-drove off." I give him a look.

"All lies go to hell."

"It's tr-true." I narrow my eyes before taking a peak, sure enough I can see a jeep with hopeful a black man driving away.

I jump back over the counter. I take a seat in the corner. I start eating and drinking my water, I swear I look like a starved person.

I check my phone to see several texts from my mum and all my aunties as well as like 60 missed calls. I open up a text from dad which just came through now.

You're DEAD bitch walking

I exit the text and call my mum. I lean back on the chair. GAH! Today is just so fucked up and it's just reached the afternoon.

This phone call with my mother is going to be hell.
