I covered my head with the pillow trying to block out
the constant yelling between my parents. Although it was no use these thin walls could not block the sound of bickering. What are they fighting about? Out of curiosity I slowly climbed out of bed and walked over to my parents door. I pressed my ear and against the rough wood straining to listen.
Why on earth would you steal those item and then sell them!? Do you know how much trouble that could put this family in! Do you even think about Holden and I!?
Relax Carol I did this whole thing for you two. I mean look around were living in a trailer house barley scraping by, with the money I'm making I could support this family.!
SUPPORT THIS FAMILY! Are you serious right now?! All your doing is going to get us in legally serious trouble!
I backed away from the door not wanting to here anymore. I stood there for a moment listening to the arguing for a minute, but then there was a loud smack! Everything went silent. My mom then burst through the door running to the other room.
My dad then came out he turned and look at me he wore a sad expression. Then he looked at me with rage he lifted his hand in the air and smacked me across the face. I was pushed back to the floor.
I looked up stunned. "After all I do for you people and you treat me like shit." He says he then kicks me in my side. I cry out in pain. "Don't get into it other peoples business boy. You understand." He said glaring at me. I just nodded and quickly ran back to my room wishing everything would go away that I wouldn't have to be here any longer...
