Secrets

Guardian Angel

This isn't happening. My grandmother was here to protect me, what am I supposed to do now!? This is impossible, she may have been old but I know that gran was taught how to survive. This fire was no accident.

"Oh Jesus! Megan!" I heard Carmen yell. "Megan, can you hear me? Megs!"

"She's in shock." Someone else said

"Megan, can you hear me?" "My name Is Doctor Mason." Everything was a blur. "STOP IT! DONT TOUCH ME!!! MOMMY, HELP ME! MOMMY, MOM?!" I can feel myself screaming, my lips moving. what am I saying? all of the sounds around me are buzzing, who is screaming?! is that...me?

"Megan, calm down. It's okay it's gonna be okay!" I could feel soft arms around me, small arms. "Mommy, come back. mommy I love you!" I said to her. I could feel her holding me, petting my hair.

"Megs, it's me. it's Alex, calm down, you're alright." my mother said to me. what a weird thing for her to say. "DADDY STOP! PLEASE NO MORE, NO MORE! MOMMY, MOMMY!" I was screaming now. I knew where I was, why was I screaming? what the hell is going on?

"We need to sedate her, she's causing a scene." I heard the Dr. say.

"Megan, you're gonna feel a small pinch and then it's time to sleep, okay?"

I let the man stick me with the needle and then everything went black.

Where am I? this is strange, I don't.... oh no, oh God! don't make me watch this again. suddenly everything came into focus. I was standing in my parents bedroom looking down at the body of my mom. the only difference was that the little me was no where to be seen. where was Rebecca? Shit, now I remember. my feet dragged me to the closet, I could hear the faint whimpers coming from the inside. My hand reached out and opened the door and I found Rebecca inside, In a tiny ball. "Becca I know you can't hear me, but you need to run!" I said softly to myself, I knew it was useless but I had to do something. Becca just sat their, whimpering. Then I heard him. his big feet stomped across the floor and he stuck his head In the closet.

"Becca honey, what don't you come out?" my father said.

Then I heard myself speak, in a tiny frail voice.

"You killed mommy! I know it and I hate you!" Anger flashed in my fathers eyes, he reached out his hand and grabbed Becca by her hair. when he pulled on Becca, I felt my hair sting where he pulled on hers. I guess it makes sense, we are the same person after all. my feet dragged me after them, to the living room where my brother was. "Rebecca, what did you see?" my father yelled.

" I saw you! you ran from mommy, I knew she was scared of you!" Rebecca yelled. I almost smiled, were the same. both stubborn, I guess that never changed. but I knew what the comment would get me.

"You saw nothing!" my father yelled at Rebecca. He took his hand and slapped her. hard. I felt the sting on my face and it made my eyes water. "WHAT DID YOU SEE?!" he screamed at Rebecca.

"you...YOU KILLED HER! I HATE YOU!!" Rebecca screamed through the blood and tears on her face.

"Obviously I'm not getting through to you. maybe seeing your brother stop breathing will jog your memory." my father sneered. BECCA STOP HIM! I felt myself scream.Rebecca grabbed the lamp from the side table and through it, with all her might at his face. I didn't want to feel what would happen next, I knew that my brain was going to make me see this memory completely though. "YOU LITTLE BITCH! I TOLD HER WE SHOULD HAVE KILLED YOU FROM THE START!" My father then grabbed his belt and whipped it across Becca's back. each strike I felt with equal force, I reached back and felt the blood seeping from my scars. the scars I got on this very day. he beat me, he beat us until We passed out from the pain.

When I opened my eyes, I was still In my memory. Rebecca was still on the floor and Jordan was crying in his playpen. I wanted to reach over and hold him so badly, I wanted to keep him from the pain that was to come. thank god Alex doesn't remember any of this, my memories are slowly killing me. All of the sudden the door slammed open and their she was, my metaphorical guardian angel. My 'Grandmother'. I looked over and saw Becca huddled in a small ball in my parents room, lying next to my mothers body. "oh dear God! Shaun, get in here!"

"Sweetie, my name is Detective Karen Morgan, I'm a good guy okay? you can trust me." my Gran said. as she took Rebecca from my mother I heard her scream "NO MOMMY, COME BACK! MOMMY I LOVE YOU". as Rebecca screamed those words, I felt myself scream at the same time, although no sound came out. Karen picked up the screaming me, and then went to pick up my brother, who wasn't crying for once. she carried us out of the open door, and so ended the lives of Rebecca and Jordan Nesley.
