I'm Amaya I'm 16 years old and live in Miami Florida I was raised as a preachers daughter I always had to stay on my best behavior I had to look a certain way I had to act a certain way
But now that I am 16 I'm a teenager I should live my life the way I want but it's not easy being the preachers daughter, I can't live my life like a regular person.
Daddy: princess can you come down stairs real quick
Me: yes daddy
I finished putting up my slick pony tail and made my way down stairs, as me being the preachers daughter i can't wear make up I can't wear heels I can't even wear pants I have to stay in skirts or dresses but the main lady in the house which is my mother can only wear those things I have to be 20 to do those things which I very much disagree with I have never had a boy friend or even have a chance to have a boy look at me. I'm also home schooled which doesn't make anything better for me so I'm not very social so basically I have no life.
Me: yes daddy
Dad: hey baby girl, your mom and I are going to be at the church tonight We planing for the event tomorrow so since we are going to probably come home around 10 China and Taylor can stay over
Me: are you serious daddy (getting excited)
Dad: yes but behave and have the doors locked
Me: oh thank you thank you thank you (hugs him)
Dad: I'm serous Amaya
Me: okay I promise I won't disobey your roles daddy
Dad: okay now we will be back around 10 don't burn the house down no boys no(gco)
Me: I know daddy I know I love you (hugs him)
Dad: love you to sweet heart
I placed a kiss on my moms cheek and watched as they left, to be honest I feel bad for my mom she couldn't do what she wanted to do around my dad she even had to give up my sister, we'll let me explain my mom had my sister out of wedlock with another man she was 17 years old with my sister and she gave her up when she was 19 and got married to my father, he didn't want to ruin his reputation he didn't want the word to go out that my mom is a hoe, she really isn't but at the time that's what he thought but my sister is grown now and doing things with her life I never seen her before but I talked to her on the phone a few times I wish I was free like her I wish I can have fun.
I called up China and Taylor they have been my best friends since we were like 5 my dad approved of them because there dad is friends with mine but they have a free life they date they go out they go to public schools and go to homecoming dances but at the same time there dad isn't a preacher. In the back of my head I think that the only reason why my dad is so protective of me is because of how my mom was pregnant at 17 and how he doesn't want people to think less of him but I will run away if I have to, to just have my own life and have fun I feel like a animal that's in a cage that can't ever get out.
