1967
Dad always came back home really late, he was always angry and we didn't know why. He never talked to us unless if it was to bring ourselves down... "You never do anything right!" he yelled at my sister, I always wanted to save this family but now I started to think that maybe it'd be better if dad could just disappear. "You're just like your brother!" he kept on yelling, "Dad, please!" I defended, "No you shut up" he slapped me I almost fell backwards but the adrenaline took in and I hit him right in the cheek bone. "Ariana, come here.." I looked at her shocked face and gestured her in my arms. Right after that, dad got up, he didn't say a word until he opened the front door, "Don't wait for me to come back" he simply said before he slammed the door. "I'm gonna protect you, okay?" I softly said to my sister, I tried to hold my tears back but I couldn't, "Everything's gonna be alright.." I caressed her cheek. That night we both couldn't fall asleep, until then, I was only 18 years old.
