Remember Me

Drunk

I feel like a totally different person when I step out of his house. I feel important, but that Joey guy kept on staring at me.

I get back in the car and drive home, it's getting on 3:00 in the morning so it's dark out side. But the streets are alive with cars. I look at the passenger seat to talk to hitch but then I realize he wasn't there.

I sigh and walk up to my door, I quietly push my keys into the knob. If Crystal finds out that I snuck out she's going to kill me. I peak my head in and I see a blunt figure tapping her foot standing right in front of me.

"Where the hell have you been?!" My mom yells waving her hands with her eyes halfway closed.

"Umm.. Uh..." I'm in shock I couldn't say anything, but I look into my moms eyes and realize, she's drunk. She's been drunk many times before but I've never seen her this bad. Before I get in the door she comes charging at me and grabs my hair and pulls me to the floor, I try to run to my room but she grabs my torso and throws me on the floor again. thrashing, she gets on top of me and punches my face.

"MOM!! What are you doing!! HELPP!" I try to scream but nothing comes out, it's only a faint screech.

" You had me worried sick!" she yells in my ear, pulling my hair. I try to shield my face with my hand but she's too strong, I push her over and stand up and run to the door that leads outside. When I grasp the door knob she grabs my ankle and pulls me down, on the way I slam my chin on the door, crying I curl up into a ball while she kicks me, every single kick Is a shock of pain running through my body.

Mom grabs a knife sitting on the counter next to her, but It took all my strength to push her down and run out side, I grab the car door handle and pull as hard as I can, it's locked. Shoving my hand into my pocket and I pull out the keys and shove them into the key hole, my hearts beating fast as I storm off, my cheeks are stained from bruises cuts, and tears. I don't dare look behind me. My vision is blurry because of my tears, I can't control them. I have no where to go.
