heres the second chapter I'll probable put three or four chapters on today
~Emma's POV~
Wow! This is getting to close. I cannot tell her I really cannot. You know I’ll just call Amy now. I do not care if I am not home yet maybe I can stay at her house. I don’t wanna go home. Ring! Ring! Ring!
“Hello!”
“Hey! It’s me Emma I heard your back.”
“yeap I got back late last night. Where are you? You can’t be home yet.”
“I’m walking home I left Marisa’s shop about 7 minutes ago.”
‘Do you want to stay the night later this week?”
“sure. Can I tell you something?”
“yeah of coarse you can. Im your best friend after all.”
“ok…umm…m-m-my..”
“your what?”
“m-my day abuses me.”
“omg. Are you serious?”
“yeah”
“does that mean you really don’t cut?”
“No, I do cut. The bruise, cigarette burns, and the glass in my arm are from him.”
“I’m so sorry.” I could hear her crying. I felt s guilty. I felt it was my fault my dad abused me. “I wish I could let you stay at my house but my dad said that for the next two nights I cannot have anyone over.” Her dad rarely abused her but he neglects her, drinks, and does drugs a lot.I really do not know why the court gave custody to her dad.
“it’s ok I’ll find away to be okay.”I say as the tears run down my face. Shot I hate crying why can’t I stop crying.
“just promise me one thing.”
“What’s that?”
“Make sure you don’t stay out remember what happened to you last time.”
“What being raped? Yeah sure I promise.”
“Why do you not go to the police with any of this?”
“Because I cannot my dad would literally kill me and it’s too late about the other.I’m just lucky I didn’t pregnant.”
Ok, are you home yet?”
“Yeah I just got home.My dad not home yet what time is it?’
“It’s 10:30.Is he drinking again?”
“That or with another girl but if it was a girl he would probably home drinking wine with her.” It is weird when he is drunk he’s violent when I’m around but when he’s with a whore or what I call his girls he’s not.
“Just lock yourself in your room and don’t come out.”That’s what she did when her dad was high or drunk maybe that’s why she rarely got abused.
“ok, I will I got to get food first I got to get something to eat.”
“Well I got to go I’m sorry.”From the noise in the background, her dad was probably high.
“bye.” I hope she’s okay tonight I really do. Ramen again tonight I guess.It is about the only thing there is around here to eat.The house is never clean; there are playboy magazines, bottles of wine, and cans of beer lying around everywhere.Oh and there’s broken glass all over the floor from where my dad got mad and smashed empty wine bottles against the wall.Is that my music? I think it is shot I left it on. Hey its face down by red jumpersuit.
My room is pretty simple other than the All-America Rejects, Breaking the Silence, and My Chemical Romance posters on my black and purple walls. Even though I am 16 I don’t have a bed I just have the mattress. Ever since my mom left, things have not been very good for me.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
“Open the door now Emma.”I could tell my dad was drunk and violent. I just sat in the corner hoping he would leave.
“Open the door.” he repeats several times.
“N-N-No. NO! I can’t open the door.”
“When I get in there I’ll”
“you’ll what! Smack me.Punch me! What will u do dad?”
“OPEN THE STUPID DOOR NOW!”
“Fine,” I say as the tears roll down my face. “fine dad. Just stop yelling at me.”
Click!
“GET OVER HERE!”
“ummm…don’t hurt me.”
Smack!
“Daddy no.”
Smack!
“stop!You’re hurting me.’”
“do you think I care.Your worthless trash.”
“but I love you.” Why does he not love me?”Stop drinking you do nt need more alcohol.”
“SHUT UP!”
“but…”
Smash!
“GET UP, CLEAN UP THIS GLASS AND STP CRYING!”
“I’m bleeding I think I need to go to the hospital please dad.”
“NO!”
“I wont tell them what happened. Theres glass stuck in my arm.”
“NO!”
“dad Kelvin is coming in a hour. If he sees it he might figure out what happened.”
“Why is he coming its night?”
“Actually its 6:16 he’s coming at 7:20 because we were going to hang out. Why am I so tired?”
“Clean up the blood.”
“Dad your drunk. Give me my phone. I need to go to the hospital. I’m losing a lot of blood.”
“NO!If you open that door your dead” I am getting sleepy. I am so tired.The room is spinning.Where is my dad going?
