I'm awake, 6 hours later. I don't feel good but I'm stable. I don't remember why I fainted, out of shock probably. My mom looks worried, I think something is wrong. Bob is here again, ugh.

           For some reason every time I see him he plasters a fake smile across his face. My mom has never let me home alone with him, until now.

            "Ok sweetie, I want you to be as nice and respectful to him as you are to me ok?" Says mom " Ok mom." I reply. "I love you, be smart!" She yells "I love you, too" I think to myself as she gets in the car. "I will" I say to myself. Where is she going?

Bob is inside making lunch. I'm glad because I am starving. "What are we having today?" I ask Bob.
"Grilled cheese and tomato soup." He says.

            He grabs a plate and hurls it at me. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" I screech. "You make your mother miserable," he yells " Besides who would like someone as ugly and stupid and fat as you?" He says.

I begin to protest but, he turns toward me takes his belt and beats me repeatedly over and over and over. "Maybe this will teach you some respect!" I can't feel anything and I'm scared. I manage to break free and run to my room.

               I slam and lock the door.

I'm safe...
