They arrive home and park in the garage. He turns off the car. Alex takes her seat belt off and gets ready to get out of the car until dad locks the door. She looks at him
Alex: What the hell are you doing?
Dad: What happened to you at school?
She looks down
Dad: And don't say "nothing" because you obviously wreak of paint
She stays quiet
Dad: Who did this to you?
Alex: No one
Dad: Alex I'm your father. You know you can tell me anything
Alex: I don't want to talk about it just forget it please
She unlocks the door but he quickly locks it again. She glares at him
Alex: I don't want to talk about it! Why can't you understand that?!
Dad: I deserved to know what happens at school especially if someone is bullying you. You are my daughter and I don't want this shit happening to you. You need to tell me right now whose doing this
Alex: Or what; you're going to kill them? Is that what our lives has come to? Killing people just cause they hurt me?
Dad: I believe your words were "do it dad, kill the son of a bitch"
She hits the dashboard
Alex: Is that what you want to see? I'm hurting myself; do you want to kill me?
Dad: Alex what are you...
She starts hitting her head on the dashboard hard. He quickly takes his seat belt off and grabs her
Dad: Alex stop!
She starts attacking him
Dad: Ow stop it!
He grabs and shakes her
Dad: STOP IT! CUT IT OUT!
She stares at him in shock. She unlocks the door, runs out of the car, runs into the house, and slams the door. He stays in the car and leans against the seat. He hits the steering wheel then grabs and shakes it while yelling. He stops after a minute then rests his head on the steering wheel and catches his breath. He calms himself then gets out and heads inside. He walks over to Alex's room and knocks
Dad: Alex
He opens the door but she wasn't in there so he walks over to the bathroom door and tries to open it, it's locked. He knocks
Dad: Alex; can you open the door please?
She doesn't open it. He rests his head on the door
Dad: Look I'm sorry for grabbing you like that and shouting at you. I don't know what I was thinking. I'm also sorry for trying to force you to talk to me when you didn't want to. Please sweetheart open the door
He sees blood coming out from under the door
Dad: Alex?
He bangs on the door
Dad: Alex open the fucking door!
He forces his body against the door until it opens. He sees her against the wall, she had cut both her wrists. Blood was all over the floor
Dad: Alex!
He runs over to her and starts crying
Dad: What did you do?!
He lightly smacks her face
Dad: Alex, baby wake up
She slowly opens her eyes and looks at him
Alex: Dad... I'm sorry
Dad: It's ok Im going to take you to the hospital
He picks her up
Dad: Hang in there
He runs in the garage, presses the button for the garage door and quickly puts her in the car. He gets in, turns the car on, and rushes to the hospital
