Chapter 2

Racesa's POV
Racesa Evelyn Marie, where are you, you little brat?! Dad yelled
I was under the floorboards in my room.
You know if you hide from me and I find you it's gonna hurt more! He yelled again
I really wish Mum was still here.
Racesa, it's time to come out now! Dad yelled again

I stood in my little hole hopping he wouldn't find me. Suddenly the board lifted and I was yanked out. I was tied to my bed and he wiped me. Then he stripped. He pushed something inside of me and it hurt. He kept moving. I tried to squeal but his hand covered my mouth. I didn't dare bite him. I knew that would make things worse. I was ten. Mum died when I was young. She died five years ago. Since then I've been stuck with this offal man. Finally he pulled the thing out of me and threw a blanket on top of me. I fell asleep with my hands above my head. I woke up to banging on the walls. I wanted to yell, to scream but I had a gag in my mouth. Suddenly a man barged through the door. I jumped and tried to pull out of the handcuffs around my wrists only causing them to bleed.

Hey, little girl, I'm here to help you. Please let me get these off you. The man said
I nodded. He took off the gag.
Now, what's your name? He asked trying to get the cuffs off
Racesa. I said
Such a pretty name. Do you have cloths anywhere? He asked
Over there. I said pointing with my toe
Alrighty. Now that these are off, I will let you get dressed. Then can you please come out? He asked
Please don't leave me here alone. Daddy may come back. I don't want him to hurt me anymore. I pleaded god I hate calling "Daddy" but he gets mad when I don't
Alright. Oh by the way, my name is Officer Zink, but you can call me Aaron. He said
O-okay. I said

I grabbed my cloths and put them on. I began to cry over how much pain I was in because of the belt. That's when I heard Aaron ask me a question before I could get my shirt on.

What happened here? He asked
I fell out of a tree. I said quickly
Racesa, you don't have to lie anymore, he won't hurt you. What happened? He asked again
I pointed to a bloody belt lying on the desk as I slipped my shirt on
I see. How would you like to stay with me for a little while? Until we find you a better home? Aaron asked
Okay. I said
My wife is going to love you. He said

After I grabbed my stuff Aaron and I got in his car and left. While we were driving he began to ask me a few questions.

So, Racesa, What do you want to be when you grow up? He asked
I want to be like Abby, from NCIS. I said
How do you what that is? He asked
I watched it all the time before Daddy would get home. Abby is really cool. I said
So you'd like to be a criminal Lab Technician. Where's your mummy? Aaron asked
She died. I said
Oh. What do you like to do? Aaron asked
Well, I like school. I like swimming, singing, dancing, writing, drawing, playing with friends, and meeting new people. I have one friend, she has two mum's, it's really cool. I said
Interesting. Aaron said
Yah, she's my best friend. But we both get picked on. She gets picked on because she has two mum's. I think it's cool she does. I get picked on because I always have bruises, I never have a lunch, I never have anyone come to my school concerts, I'm always wearing the same cloths, and lots of other things. I said
Can you tell me some of those other things? Aaron asked
Well, sometimes I don't like to be a girl. One day I didn't like my long hair so I cut it all off. Then the next day I wished I had it all back. Some days I don't like to wear dresses and some days that's all I want to wear. I said
I see. Aaron said

The drive was quiet the rest of the way. Soon we were there

Racesa, this is my wife, Lila. Lila, this is Racesa. Aaron said
Hello Racesa. It's nice to meet you. Lila said
Hello. I said
So, what grade are you in Racesa? Lila asked
Five. I said
Cool. Are you excited to go I to grade six after the summer is over.
Yes. I can't wait. I said
So, when's your birthday? Aaron asked
October 2nd. I said
That's no to far away. What do you want for your birthday? Lila asked
I get presents?! I asked
Yes of course. Anything you want. Aaron said
Markiplier and Jacksepticeye stuff. I said
Who are those people? Aaron asked
Two of my favourite YouTubers. They're so cool. There like a father figure to me. I said
Mhm. Aaron said
What about in your cake? Lila said
I get cake too?! I asked
Well yah, it's a birthday party. Lila said
I'll draw it for you. May I have some paper and a pencil? I asked
Of course. Lila said passing me paper, a pencil, and some colour pencils
I passed Lila the picture. It was Ting Box Tim and Sam Septiceye.
Wow, very cool. I'll see what I can do. Lila said
