So Hood

Prologue

Chris

4 years earlier.

"Chris! Draya! Get yall asses down here!" Our father yelled. He must be drunk. Again. I met my sister Draya in the hall way and I looked at her. She looked scared. You could see fear all in her eyes. We walked down into the living room to see our mother in the kitchen sitting at the table. She looked at me and she looked disgusted. She held a blunt in her hand and she looked away from me.

"Fucking h-h-hoe." My father said slurring over his words. "Come here Dra."

Draya walked over to him and he pulled her to the ground by her hair.

"S-s-slut! Walking around in booty shorts around here. Showing these Lil nigga's your ass and shit!" He yelled.

"Dad! Stop. You're hurting me!!" She yelled. I looked away. I hated when he called my little sister out her name. She was only 12. I was 14 at the time.

"You s-s-shouldn't be such a hoe than!" He yelled smacking her in her face.

"Ah! Daddy. Stop."

The front door opened and Drake walked in. He was 16 and our older brother. He looked at me than at Draya.

"Get the fuck off her!" He yelled pushing our drunken father. He fell over and landed on the couch. Drake picked Draya up and stood in front of us as our father got up and walked over and got in Drake's face.

"Boy, are you fucking stupid?" He asked Drake.

"No, But you aint about to be putting your hands on my sister like she's someone on the fucking street." Drake said pushing us back up the stairs. I walked into the room I shared with Drake and Draya followed me. Drake had went into Draya's room and pulled her mattress into our room. He laid the bed in between our beds.

"You gone be sleeping in here for now on." Drake said to Draya. She sat in between his legs and laid her head on his leg. "I told yall not to come out the rooms while I was gone." Drake said rubbing his hand over his face.

"He called us. What were we supposed to do?" Draya asked.

"He would a came in our rooms. That shit would a been worst." I said shaking my head. "I'm ready to say fuck this family."

"Watch your mouth Lil bro. I know you upset but talk like that in front of Draya." Drake said looing in my eyes to show me he was serious. I nodded my head.

"My hair hurt." Draya said rubbing her head. Drake started rubbing her scalp.

"It's 11 o'clock. Yall need sleep." Drake said lying down in the bed. We followed right after him. Our eyes got heavy and we fell asleep fast.

Draya

I felt someone pick me up. I thought it was Drake taking me to my room. But they didn't go to my room. Moments later I felt the cold floor of the kitchen. I laid there for a minute. It was silent.

WHAMP!

"AHHH!!!" I screamed as the hit connected to face head. I opened my eyes and my dad was standing over me with a wooden paddle. He continued to hit me all over my body with the paddle.

"Get off her!" Chris yelled running into the kitchen. Drake was right behind him. Drake pushed past him and tried to grab the paddle out my dad's hand. He hit me on my side and I whined at the pain. I tired pulling away from him. But he followed. Drake was strong. But not strong enough for our dad. Our dad had a big build and he knew he was big. I looked over and saw my mom on the couch. She was looking at me and she smiled. I cried and looked at her in disgust. I looked over at Chris and he was red. I knew he was pissed to the max. He ran out the kitchen and up the stairs.

WHAMP!

This one landed on my leg.

"DRAKE MOVEE!!" Chris yelled. He held up a gun and he pulled the trigger.

POW!

"Chris! Give me the gun." Drake yelled at Chris. Chris handed him the gun and Drake held it by his side.

"W-w-What did you do!" My yelled standing up from the couch. She ran over to our father and she got on her knees and tried to wake him. But he wouldn't. The bullet went thru his skull and out the back and thru the wall. My mom looked up and she looked at me. She got up and went to the sink. She grabbed a large knife and my eyes got huge.

"Mommy." I said shaking my head. She ran towards me with the knife. Then it got pitch dark.

Drake

I shot her. I shot my mother. What was I supposed to do? She was running at my baby sister with a knife. I looked at my mom's lifeless body lying in front of me. I looked over at Draya and she wasn't moving. The knife was in her shoulder. I went over to her and picked her up. I started crying when she wasn't moving.

"Chris!" I yelled. Chris was by my side he had his hands on Draya's neck. He was checking for a pulse. I looked at me and nodded.

"She has a pulse. Faint. We need to get help."

"Get the door!" I said crying now. I walked out the house and saw people gathering around. They were looking around.

"Help us!" I yelled.

"Oh my lord. Someone call 911, that baby got a knife in her shoulder." I looked up and say Mrs. Berta say. She was an old lady that lived next door. I looked down at my sister and she looked cold. I tried to cover her up more but it didn't work. I looked up and saw Honey. My girlfriend. We have been dating about 4 months. She was crying. She walked over to me.

"W-what happened?" She shuddered. She was looking at my little sister. Honey had no sibling so she looked at Draya like a little sister.

"Baby?" She said to me. I looked at her. I had tears in my eyes.

"My brother, sister and I have been getting beaten by our parent's since we could walk." I said crying more. She hugged me and we cried together. She looked at my sister and noticed the knife in her arm.

"Oh my god!" She said and she started panicking. I heard sirens in the distance.

"Baby, calm down." I said wrapping my arm around her and making sure my sister was secure.

"Why didn't you tell me?" She asked me. I kissed her lips.

"I love you Honey. But this wasn't something I could just tell you." I said. I looked up and 4 police officers pulled up with an ambulance behind them.

"Is anyone in the house?" The police officer asked me.

"Yeah. My parent's. Their dead."
