Sophie's POV :
My eyelids slowly open, revealing the all familiar white ceiling. When i remember the last argue i had with dad, tears started to welled up in my eyes again. He did it this time. He lost control and flash his abusive side to me again. I was used to this. For the past years, he was a loving and caring person. He was a dad every child could ever imagine of, understanding dad. But now? I don't even know him anymore. He seemed like a hungry monster that could chew anything when he's angry. The tears that flowed seconds ago turned into sobs. I know exactly why he became like this lately.
Mom. She died with a smile plastered on her glowing face, but all of it was too much for dad to take. It was harder for me because i was the one who stay with her with her most and last hours. I was the one that compliment her dishes. I thought dad could just let it go, but he can't. He was too busy with his leap of assignments. But he got the most impact of it.
Mom died in a car crash 2 years ago. But her face will always fresh in my mind. Dad steered for the past 12 months but now, he seemed so down. Maybe he woke up from a dream and realized it wasn't a dream. He lost his job and he was stressed. Whenever he's angry, he called me and let everything out, his anger, his pressure and have his pleasure from beating and hitting me with all his might. All of the thoughts made me forgot what he had done to me this evening. I got up slowly to prevent the pain and approached the big mirror. I gasped in horror as i saw myself in the mirror. Looking dead. Who is this girl?
There was a big purple bruise on my right cheek. My hand slowly creep to the purple tint and i accidentally pressed it. I let out a loud shriek after getting the horrible pain. It was horrible and terrifying. I have bags under my eyes. My pale eyes didn't gleam like it used to. As i cried more, i thought so much that the mirror in front of me changed into a happy atmosphere with a small, happy girl that supposed to be me. Shining and smiling happily under the shine of my parents love and care. But now, everything seems dark as the mirror turn back to reality. The real me. Dark, skinny and of course, lonely without any love or care. That's me. Nothing.
My hand slowly lift up my shirt and there was another big bruise on my stomach. He kicked me several times and it's pretty hard to walk like normal person with a bruised stomach. I looked at the mirror again, realizing and knowing that i was so much skinnier than the previous months. I closed my eyes and the flashback started, what really happened to me this evening. Probably the hardest evening of my existence.
~ Flashback ~
"A birthday party?! What are you thinking your doing?! If i know this will happen sooner, i wouldn't let you have that stupid birthday party! You've ruined everything, Sophie! Everything!," my father voice echoed across the dining hall as i sat down on the handmade soft chair. My hand was covering my face and my silent sobs at the same time. Everything was too much for me. Everything was too hard to take! Mom was gone for the past year and here we are, arguing about something long gone. Everything he blurted out stabbed my heart like a thousand daggers. And that time, my heart spoke,
Fight him Sophie... Fight him
