" If you loved me you would tell me the truth."
I cried into the phone.
The space around was poorly lit with red lights. The drop of water could be heard easily so I mustve been near a drain or something.
"Damien. Damien please." I yelled after seconds went by without his response.
"You cant handle the truth. Its over." He said then the phone clicked and my heart dropped with a thud.
I was scared. My body shuddered and the phone dropped. A cool breeze creeped down my spine giving me gooaebumps.
Where was I ??
"RUN." Someone shouted in my ear.
My legs took off and my ear began to ring.
I hit a door and pushed it open hoping it would lead to outside.
My eyes became blurry and all I seen was rocks surrounded by red mixed with yellow and orange. Like a volcano erruption.
Swoosh.
My body leaped and I began to plumit doenward.
******---++++**&%$##$%**-++
I woke up gasping for air.
What a horrible nightmare.
Ive been having this dream for months and still dont understand it. I'm single and I dont know of a Damien.
I was so confused.
"Move." my cousin squirmed kicking me. I layed at one end of the bed and she was on the other. Her feet where by my shoulder and my feet well one dangeled off the bed and the other was on her neck.
I was tired of living like this. Sharing a bed with one other person and a room with three other people. Yup four people, two beds.
Really I couldnt complain. I was grateful but fustrated.
I lived with my aunt and her 6 kids her two bothers and her boyfriend. Everybody in the house had jobs . If you didnt work you didnt eat or sleep.
I payed her $125 for rent and whatever I had left I could do what I wanted.
I pulled my legs up against my chest and leaned against the headboard.
I looked around the small room and wondered how they where going to make it with out me.
Even with all the money coming in it was just never enough for us to live comfortably.
I always offered to give my aunt more or pay for groceries but she told me "It isnt your responsibility Gabby. Its bad enough I have to take what little money you make."
I was fine with it though. She took me in when my father lost custody of me. She raised me like her own.
She made sacrifices for me that I still dont understand why she did.
I sighed. I would be leaving for college in a couple of weeks and all I could do is wonder if I should try to get a full time job or go to college.
I know that decision sounds foolish but those are the thoughts running through my mind.
I know if I leave they will be struggling even more and I couldn't have the regret that it was because of me weighing on my heart.
I had gotten a academic scholarship plus benifits to the college of my choice because of my good grades throughout highschool.
My Aunt and Grandma strongly believed that intelligence is more powerful than money. "With intelligence comes money." they told me growing up.
I would come home crying because I was called dirty or poor.
"Gabby you may not have their. money but look at all these awards. They dont have your brains. Brains brings money."
I didn't believe that growing up because material stuff brought popularity. Now that I'm older I understand it all too well.
I wish it didn't though. Maybe if I wasn't smart my Aunt would have no other choice but too make me get a full time job.
Is that selfish or selfless ??
