My eyes shot open and I saw Mom standing there with her arms crossed with Van next to her smirking. "M-M-Mom! You.....got...o-out...of...your...room!" I signed with shaking hands in between sobs running to hug her. She pushed me making me fall backwards on my butt. "Demon!" she hissed. Van held her hand and walked her back to her dungeon....her room.

The the fact that Van did that to me. He made mom hate me even more. I sat on the floor staring off into space until the tears came crashing down on the hardwood stained floor. My hands gripped the floor as I cried harder by the minute.

All my life I wanted her to love me....like any mother should but she hated my guts. I honestly don't know why, but she thinks its my fault that my dad left us.

And I somewhat believe that.

My father let his money and power get to his head and he beat us. He cheated on mom. He didn't care about us. He cares about his money and himself. I wonder if he ever hurt Van before. The tears stopped and I felt weak. As I tried to get up my knees went wobbly and I fell back down again. I banged my fist down onto the floor and cried again.

"I like to see you pathetic, and weak. Just like BELLA." Van said smirking bending down to my size. Too bad I cant talk or else I would be using every word in the book! "Ya' know sis. Being the favorite and all I have an idea." Van said walking around me like I was his prey that he was stalking. I growled making him jump back in surprise. "Woah there! You scared me thought there was a real female dog in here." Van said. THAT IS IT! I got up faster than you can yell 'mom' and I punched him in his face making him fall back

I pointed a finger at him. "You..." I growled in a low voice. "CAN TALK?!" Van exclaimed. I raised a finger ,"UHGGG!" I groaned. Its always when I'm mad that I talk! Its like the universe is against me. I sighed in exasperation. "Its funny seeing you struggle." Van pointed out.

"YOU! You aren't the same guy I knew a year ago. We were close! We did everything together! Ever since Mom was diagnosed with Schizophrenia you have been acting like a total jerk! You freaking egotistical jerk! I hate you! I hate you! What happened to the OLD Van we used to know? HUH? You are so different. Now tell me why you are like this? I love you. You were always protective, but you've changed over the years time. Is it dad? What is he doing to you? Did he hurt you too? GOOD. You should see how it feels! WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?" I spat out in distaste not liking my hoarse voice while poking his chest.

Van looked at me in bewilderment. "I-I-I AM NOTHING LIKE HIM!" Van yelled frustrated while tugging at his hair.

I flinched at his bitter tone and unconsciously took a step back. "You know a voice keeps telling me that I'm going to be just like him? I look in the mirror everyday and you know what I see? HIM. All I see is HIM! And I don't like that okay! I never want to be like him! NEVER..." Van yelled then whispering the last part.

I put a hand on his shoulder, but he roughly picked me up by my collar an shoved me against the peeling walls. "I DONT NEED YOU! I DONT NEED ANYONE!" Van screamed in my face. I could smell stale whiskey on him. Unconsciously I said, "Have you been drinking?" Then I felt a sting on my cheek. "Listen here! You take that back! I am nothing like him! NEVER!" He yelled slapping me again and knocking over the coffee table. Its not like we use it anyways. I got up and frowned. "Are you sure?" I asked. Van stepped closer making me step back. "DOES IT LOOK LIKE IM SURE!?" Van snapped making me flinch and tears spill.
