The Struggle

My life

*Dream*

I walked throught the door into my dark house. I set my bag down and when I turned around Rayquan was standing there.

"Why are you late?"he asked walking towards me

"What are you talking about, its only 11:05."I replied

He slapped me across my face hard

"I told you to be home at 11:00"

He kept punching me and I started crying

After he stopped my face was swollen. I wiped my face off and while doing so I came up with a plan.

While he was sleeping I got dress and started packing all my things. Raquan was a hard sleeper so I knew this was my only chance. So I left and drove to Georgia.

*Dream over*

I woke up from the room scared breathing hard and sweat started coming down my face as I looked around the room.I went out in the hallway to make sure I didn't wake my sister, and my 3yr old. After that I went back to sleep.

I woke up and got ready for the day.

Well let me start off talking about myself.

My name is Lauren, I am 22 years old. I have one child who is 3 years old. I grew up having a mom who was a drug addict. When I was twelve my mom got her first boyfriend after my dad, he used to beat on me and my mom would never do anthing about it. He raped me also but I got an abortion. I stuck to school and by the time I was 15 I graduated. After two years in college my mom forced me to get my little sister , Jasmine,  that was 9 years old. When I was sixteen I met a boy name Raquan ,trusted him with everything, he used to be so sweet until he started drinking and cheating on me. I didn't want to leave because I thought he was going to get better but instead he got worse. He started beating me everynight and one day he even raped me that's how I have my little baby girl Eva. After two years after having her I got fed up with him and me, my little sister, and Eva moved to Georgia.Now I have problems trusting everyone.

When I got to Georgia I already knew I had a job at a shoe company as a person who makes the designs for the shoes.
