'"When life gets you down, you know whatcha got do? Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming swimming swimming."'
Mommy and daddy are yelling again. They always do. I thought it was because of me, but when mommy comes to tuck me in, she says that mommy and daddy love me and that they are going through a rough patch. I get confused when she says that, because if they love me then why are they yelling.
But this fight is different then others. I just wanted to watch my favorite movie of all time and play with my dolls, but their yelling was too loud. And you can hear glass fall on the ground. I was getting real scared.
Their yelling got louder and louder like it was coming for me. I got really scared and I didn't like it. I curled up in a ball crying wanting it all to stop.
But then a blanket of this calming warmth took me in its arms. When I turn around to see who it was, I was no one. I wasn't scared though. The voice told me that it was going to be okay.
Everything around me was quieter but I could still hear mommy and daddy. I didn't like it. So I stood up and walked out my door.
The outside was where I belonged. The night invited me into it's dark arms.
