*Ashley's P.O.V*

Life isn't always fair. Sometimes you win and some times you lose. Some people stand to their rights and defend themselves, but there are others who run from their problems, because they are so tired to face them. And I chose to be the second type.

When life gives you a chance, you immediately take it. That is what I did.

Let me tell you about myself. I am Ashley, Ashley Blake. I'm sixteen years old. When my mother was alive, everything was good, but not anymore. My mother died a year ago. Since that tragic, my father became a drunk rapist. And when I thought that there is no worse, boy I was wrong! My boyfriend started abusing me and the bullies of our school bullied me.

I've been working hard to save a good amount of money, since my mother died. Now, it's the right time to leave and escape this hell.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm on the plane, now, waiting for it to land off in London.

*Flashback*

"ASHLEY!! COME TO THE ROOM, RIGHT NOW!!"

David said.

"O-okay I-I'm coming." I flinched, 'cause I know what was going to happen now. I got up from my bed and went to his room.

"Lay on the bed and take your clothes off." He said, anger in his voice.

I started to cry as I said, "Father, please, enough you have been drinking and doing this since my mother's death. Please, let me go back to my room. Please!"

"ARE YOU DENYING MY PLEASE?!!" His palm collided with my face, as I cried more and more, I did what he has said.

"I'm sorry."

"You better be! Now lay down on the bed, so I can pleasure myself!" He said, smirking.

I lay on bed, crying as I take my clothes off. I'm completely naked and he is looking at me with hunger and eager.

"You look good. Now time to start." He said as he hovered over me.

I closed my eyes and cried while he was satisfying his needs.

After what felt like forever, he finally let me go. I walked hardly to my room, naked and heavily breathing. I locked the door behind me. I got in the shower and after thirty minutes, I got out. I changed to my pyjamas, then I looked at my wrists...there's something missing...but what is it?.....oh...cutting. I walked to my bathroom again and started cutting. I closed my eyes as the shiny, sharp blade moved over my wrist, I gasped in pain as I let few tears out, blood as well. After bleeding for five minutes, I cleaned everything up, then got back to get the rest of my homework done.

*End of flashback*

I flinched as the flashback rushed through my mind. But, then again, I'm out of it, now. I just need to get some rest in my new apartment, to calm myself down. Speaking of the new apartment, when I was in Toronto, I saw an apartment online and spoke to its owner. It's a two story apartment. I'm gonna meet her, after I get out of the airport.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Everything is good - 'till now. I got the apartment and I'm gonna apply for job, tomorrow morning. I hope it all works out.
