"Lea come back! I need my toy." I chased after Lea till I thought her legs would give out.
"Nope!" Lea said as she stuck my toy in my dogs poop.
"LEA!" I shouted as I started crying.
"Oh sister, stop your crying." Lea said as she pushed my head backward to make me fall down.
My sister was always mean to me. She always teased me and took my toys. I always considered her the worst sister ever.
I sat in the grass crying because Lea ruined my favorite toy. I know since I am ten that I'm to old to be playing with toys but that's all I have.
I ran into my house crying for my mom.
"Mommy! Mommy!"
"Beatrice, shut up. I'm working!" My mom yelled at me.
My face dropped and the tears started rising up out of my eyes. I wiped them away trying to be strong. I ran up my old broken wooden stairs trying to avoid the small holes. I opened my door and slammed it with all my might.
"Beatrice get down here now!" My dad said with fury.
I forgot about my dad. The abusive one. I ran a down my stairs not wanting my dad to wait.
"Yes, Daddy?"
"What was that. WHAT WAS THAT!"
"I'm sorry Daddy, I was mad." I said as my dad slapped me across the face.
I held my hand to my dad's red hand print on my face. I looked up at my dad, with terror.
"Get out of my house. Get out." My Dad said with more anger than ever.
"Bea, oh Bea. Disgrace to this family. To bad I'm older than you." Lea said with a chuckle.
"Your only 11 and Daddy, please!"
"No, get out now." My Dad said he grabbed my arm and threw me out of my house.
My Dad locked the door on me and never let me back in. Don't ask how I survived, how I made money. Because it's a shame. I sold drugs to make money. Sold enough that I was able to make a living. I went to college, then dropped out because I didn't want to be in school. It wasn't my dream, if I had one. I was a bad kid, hanged around bad people. Let people use me, it was terrible. I spent all my money on overly expensive cigarettes and drugs. My sister came to me once when I was 16, she needed to sign my licence for me to drive. This was the only time in so many years. After that I haven't seen her or my parents since then.

I almost cried reliving that moment. How my parents kicked me out.
"Sister don't me sad. Lucas was nothing. He was a sloppy kisser."
"Shut up, Lea. Lucas was not." I said realizing what I just said was bad.
"You kissed him! Oh my gosh! That little..."
Lea came back from where ever she came from to stay here. She got kicked out of every hotel because she was to loud at night. I think I know what she was doing, I just don't want to think about it.
"Lea, can't you go in a motel or something."
"That's setting myself up for death." Lea said as her opinion.
I really miss Lucas. Seeing him and having him make me care, it was amazing. I decided to call him.
*Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring*
No answer. I'm pathetic Beatrice, I am. I had an idea, what if I go to London. See him, case after him. I decided on that idea. I needed to get away from Lea anyway.
"I'm going out."
"Oh Bea, hopefully your concussion doesn't hurt to bad." Lea said sarcastically.
"Don't act like you care."
"Well that attacker didn't but he still got you."
"How do you it's a he." I questioned.
"A simple guess." Lea said sounding like she is hiding something.
Well I don't give two cows butts about her. I decided to ignore her and meet the guy I like in London. This is so exciting, I have never done this before.
I walk down my metal stairs of my apartment to the sidewalk out side. I remembered my lighter for my cigarette. I took it from my pocket along with a cigarette and lit it with the lighter. As I was putting it to my face I touched the scars from the scratches that the attacker gave me. They were healing, which is surprising since I smoke. I puffed out a cloud of smoke and when the smoke vanished I saw a familiar face. A face that resembled Lucas Fisher.
