Chapter 5

    Why in hell is he here! He never gave a flying fuck about me and now he came back! This makes absolutely no sense. "Hello Luna" "What do you want?!" I responded with poison dripping from my mouth. "Now now Luna that is no way to speak to your father" he said with an evil smirk.

    "You are not my father! You stopped being my father when you started beating me!" I shouted. That's when Mike walked in and his jaw dropped. "You beat her!" "Oh Mike, son, you know I would never hurt a hair on your sisters head. She is just trying to get attention." He responded with such confidence, like he knew Mike would believe him.

    "Oh my god I thought you were serious. Luna never joke about that type of shit!" He yelled "Mike I'm not joking! Please believe me!" He stomped away with and angry expression. It was silent until I heard the slam of a door. Mike's door.

    I turned back around to see my father taking his belt of and raising his arm. "You know, you should have never tried to tell your brother." That's when he threw his arm forward making the belt wrap around my arm and causing me to release a high pitched yelp. That's when I heard Mike's door open and him running down the stairs. My dad slid his belt back on and plastered a fake concerned expression on his face.

     "Oh my goodness Luna are you okay?" He asked going along with the act. My arm was bleeding because of the amount of power he hit me with. "What happened?!" Mike asked "Oh it's okay your sister just fell and scraped her arm on the coffee table but I think we have the situation under control." Once Mike had gone disgust was his expression towards me. "Don't tell him. Ever." He said and walked into the kitchen.

"Mike" he shouted "Luna is going to help me cook something to eat" WHAT?!? I AM! "Okay" he responded. I went to the bathroom to clean up my arm and wipe the tears that had formed in my eyes. "Luna c'mon" I rolled my eyes and walked to the kitchen. When I walks in he was making something on the stove. "Can you get some carrots out?" I walked over to the fridge and started searching for the carrots. Once I had found them I closed the fridge and turned around.

I walked over to the stove to give him the carrots but before I could say anything he turned around and the pan hit me on the arm. The same place he had whipped me with his belt. He gave me an evil smirk and that's when I started to yell for Mike "M-" before I could finish his name, through my tears I saw him throw a punch.

I felt something hit my right temple and that's when I collapsed. The corners of my vision was black. I lifted my head to see if Mike had come but all I saw was a foot coming towards me. I felt another sharp pain to my temple and that's when everything went black.
