My dad killed my mom when I was little. The police never even knew she was dead because she didn't ever leave the house. Sometimes when I was little my dad would leave for a long time. I knew how to cook in the microwave so I didn't ever really need him. When he was home was the bad part. If I ever said the wrong thing he would get really angry and beat me and wouldn't let me eat for a couple days. It was really easy to say the wrong thing. Sometimes he would touch me, but that only really happened at night. Whenever I was at school, I would feel like I would faint because I was so tired and hungry but I never told the teacher because if the nurse saw me she would send me to the police or the hospital and I've never been to jail or a hospital. A week ago I ran away. I broke into my friend's house and got him to give me some clothes because it's really cold and I was scared I would freeze until I died. I'm still scared because it's hard to sleep at night or walk around or anything. My dad could be looking for me, or the police. I could get kidnapped or hurt. There isn't anywhere to go, though. I've never been to a hospital, not even for a checkup. I know I'm bleeding and I think my hand is broken. I need help.
