I hear the door bell ring. I know what this means, daddy's friends are hear again tonight. Maybe if I hide, they won't be able to find me and then the can't hurt me. Daddy is yelling at them. I need to find somewhere safe before they come upstairs. There's nowhere in my room to hide, so I slowly open the door and sneak into the hall. I check the stairs to see if people are coming. They're drinking from those brown bottles again. I know what this means. If I don't find somewhere to hide, tonight is not going to be fun. I open the door to the closet and close the door before crawling into the back corner. I put a blanket on top of me and try to stay as quiet as possible.
It seems like I've been in here for hours, but I can still hear them shouting and stomping about the house. I try to understand what they're saying.
"I thought you said we could play with her Dameon! I'm not happy about this."
Dameon is my daddy. I don't know why the man wants to play with me though. Daddy sometimes plays games with me. He says they're lots of fun and mommy used to play them with him, but I don't like them. I can hear another voice yelling too. He's saying something about money.
" Well if you won't let us play with her and you don't have the money then maybe we'll just have to kill you!"
Kill daddy? I'm so confused! Why does this man want our money? we don't have any money, at least that's why daddy never gives me any food or new clothes. I hear the door bell ring again.
"Police! Open the door and lay your weapons on the ground!"
Suddenly there is the sound of wood breaking, gunshots and screams from downstairs. I start to cry. I don't understand what's happening. I stay in a little ball, under my blanket, sobbing till I fall asleep.
*************************************
I wake up to the closet door opening. My blanket has fallen off and I see a man in a blue uniform.
" Hi sweetie, what's your name?"
I don't answer him, I just shuffle back. Men are bad and mean. They try to hurt me and play games with me. I don't know who this is, but I know he's going to hurt me if I talk.
"Come with me sweetie, we'll get you cleaned up and find you somewhere safe to stay"
He offers his hand to me, but I know it's just a trick. When I don't take it, he reaches in to pick me up. I start screaming and sobbing again. I don't want to be hurt anymore!
*************************************
He carries me outside despite the fact that I am still screaming and sobbing.
"No! No! I don't wanna! Stop!" I continue to cry, but he ignores me, setting me down on a bed in the back of a white truck.
"these are paramedics. They're going to bring you to the hospital to make sure you're ok. Be a good girl ok?"
He gives me a sad look and them the paramedic people close the doors to the truck and start putting needles in my arms and asking me what hurts. They're girls so I don't think they'll hurt me, but I just want to sleep so I don't answer them either.
The truck starts moving and I can feel my eyes getting heavy. I close them and hope that when I wake up I'll be safe.
