The car ride home was well, awkward, to say the least. I lied to her, many times about my past, and now she knows that. Right now, Selena is pacing in front of me, and im sitting on the bed. I havent started talking yet because she wants to ask me questions. As soon as we got home I opened my mouth to speak and Selena said "Don't talk yet. I want to ask you a few questions." So I havents opened my mouth since then.

In the middle of the room Selena abruptly stops her pacing. "You lied." It sounds more like a statement then a question but I answer anyway.

"Yes." I breathe out. She starts pacing again.

"Why did you really move?" She asks me. "And dont lie this time."

"Ummm, My dad tried to kill my mother." I tell her.

"Why?" She asks.

"To get to me." I say.

She puts her hands in her hair and lets out an agitated breath. "What did your dad do to you? I want to know everything." I shake my head.

"No, No you dont." I breathe out. She gives me an encouraging look and I nodd. "Okay." I start. "It started when I was 13 and I started developing..."

-Flashback-

I was standing in my room with tears streaming down my face. My mom and dad were down stairs fighting. I could hear my dad screaming, I could hear thumps, and crashes, and so many different noises. None of the noises sounded good. Soon enough I heard heavy footsteps up the stairs and I knew who they belonged to. Soon enough my father was in my room and he wasnt happy.

"Demetria." He said. I immeditaly knew this wouldnt go well. He never calls me Demetria.

"Yes daddy." I said.

"Strip."

-Flashback end-

"...He raped me that night. He did that about every week, but it wasnt until I was 15 that he first hit me..."

-Flashback-

My dad was chasing me to my room. He had just caught me in the back of a 19 year old girl's car, kissing her. I tried to shut and lock the door but wasnt fast enough and he pushed it open effectively pushing me down.

"Get up!" He barked. I was immediatly on my feet looking up at him. "So what your a dyke now?" He yells.

"I dont know! Even if I am you would of made me this way you rapest!" I screamed. It only took three seconds for him to punch me and me to be on the ground spitting blood out of my mouth."

-Flashback end-

"...When I was 16 my mom found me lying unconsious on the floor and my dad still over me. He got arrested that day. He got out of jail a few months ago and tried to get to my mom. So we moved." I finish telling her.
