Running to my room I shut the door and go to my bed, hugging my pillows. Tears streamed down my cheeks and I sob into the pillow. Another fight with my dad.

I was worthless.

Always fighting, no happiness shone to me these days. I was always faking a smile. Always making mistakes and screwing up.

And all I did was make Dad disappointed. The look of pity on his face and disappointment in his eyes always made me frown.

Why wouldn't he let me go to school? Was I too uneducated? Too irresponsible? I want to make friends, learn and have a life besides the one I have underground.

We have the watches, why can't we use them?

Sobbing again I grab one of my ninja stars from my nightstand. I hold it to my wrist hovering over my green skin.

My eyes burn as more tears pour, I understood now.

I was a monster.





I was ugly.







I was worthless.

The blade cuts through easily. Stinging as it touches my skin. The cold metal slides through, making a satisfying feeling run through my body.

Pain.

Something I actually deserve.

Following the blade a thin line of crimson appears. Getting bigger every second, growing until it drips over.

I smile. I could feel something.

One line for screwing up, and another for fighting with Dad. Third one for failing my training and a fourth one for being me.

I cut and cut, watching all the crimson blood drip off me. But soon my wrist doesn't have anymore room. I wipe the blade off and set it back on my desk while wrapping bandages around my wrist and on the other one. I had to make it look okay.

Then I fall back to my pillow and cry myself to sleep.

Sorry for it bei so short. I am working on a really big chapter for this book that will be published next week cause it's a TON of work.
