I sat on the steps of the funeral home. Listening to the rain jolting down onto the ground. My uncle told me that it was time to go. That sick bastard. I didn't like him at all. But he's all that's left in my family. He's all I've got.
My aunts funeral was something I never wanted to happen. She was the only one that didn't want to rape me, or hit me, she just wanted love. And now she is gone. You will be missed aunt Bridgett.
My mother and father never wanted me. When I was born my father tried to kill me with the scissors that you cut the umbilical cord with. I don't remember but I've heard stories. And my mother on the other hand is just worthless. She didn't even care what she did when she got prego. She smoked
weed and did cocaine. But what can you do?
My Aunt passed from breast cancer. Two years ago when she first got it, they said it wasn't that bad. But when she was in the middle of one treatment, she died. Later that day, one of the doctors came by our house. But she wasn't with him. We were all terrified of what he had to say. And before I knew it, I was in the floor hyperventilating.
You're probably wondering why I called my Uncle a sick bastard. Well, my 7 year old cousin was raped by him. He raped her everyday after school. And when he was done she had to sit in the bathtub for a hour. To let the blood drain. And because she knew what would happen, she ran away instead of coming home one day. Ten mouths later, they found her body in the river. Her body had washed up the shore. She drowned herself.
When uncle Benny told me what all happend, I cried for days. The only reason he had told me is because I knew that he knew why she ran away. And I held a knife to his throat until he told me. And now I have to live with him. I guess I'll just have to protect myself.
Seeing that I am only 15, I can't go live with somebody else, because my judge tracks where I go. I mean, he doesn't watch me but, he knows where I am.
As I got up off of the steps, I realized that it stopped raining. And the sun suddenly came out. There was no clouds in the sky anymore. And all of a sudden, I felt happy again. I felt like she touched my heart. I knew that she had found her baby girl in heaven and she was happy. Thank you God. Thank you.
