Hopeless

Chapter 1

I was awoken with a slap. I had thirty minutes to shower, get dressed and apply make-up. After that I for dark blue jeans, a batman shirt, batman jacket, and my black and white converse.

I walked downstairs to see my family sitting at the table. We were all being forced to eat something we hate. Mom has french toast, Jax has muffins, Azraa has eggs and so do I. I sat down and started eating. I knew if I didnt I would be hit. I finished the eggs and went to go get my bag. I ran to the bathroom and emptied out all the eggs in my stomach. My father was standing there with a smirk on his face.

He gaged me and again I threw up. My mom took me to school and I saw my best friend standing by the door.

"Hey, Aurelia!" She said.

"Hey Sariah." I said with a bored tone. I was extremely sore. I had at least three new bruises and five more cuts and scratches.

"Look at my new phone!" She said as she pulled out a brand new iPhone 5S. I love her to death, but she is the most spoiled child I have ever met. Meaning that she has an iPad, laptop, 40" t.v, and gets any pet she wants.

"Cool," I said with a sigh.

"Why have you been so boring lately. You do absolutely nothing."

"Im sorry." After i said that she stormed off and didnt talk to me all day. I told my third hour teacher I wasnt feeling well and I went home. My dad was off work and he greeted me at the door.

"What the hell are you doing home. Its not even lunch time yet!" He yelled. He picked me up over his shoulder and carried me to his room. "Now that your home we can have some fun," he said with an evil grin. With that he slapped me across the face. I cried out in pain. He laughed. He went to his dresser and pulled out a knife. He lifted up my shirt and slid the blade across my stomach. He pushed in harder and I screamed. He carried me back to my room and threw me on the ground. I crawled to my bathroom. I pulled out gauze and band-aids. I have to keep a lot of these around.

"Are you okay! Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"Mom, Im fine." I said as I pulled out my nook. I got on to my new favorite book. Im in the middle of reading a really good romance novel. I have a super secret password on so my family doesnt see ANYTHING I write or read. I would be murdered by father if he saw some of the stuff on this. Not to mention it doubles as my diary. My door opens and i shut off my nook.

"You, basement, now!" My father exclaimed angrily. I set down my nook and walked to the basement. When I got downstairs I saw all my other family tied up.

"I have to leave for two weeks. You all know the rules. You also know Im going to miss some beatings. Aurelia, this time you get the chance of watching." He laughed. I honestly think that this is worse than the beatings. He walked over to Azraa first. He slapped, punched, and kicked her. Then he went to Jax. He was cut, and stabbed. He let them go upstairs, me also so I could bandage them. When I came back down he locked the door. My mother was naked, and so was he. He grabbed me and tied me up to wear I had to watch. My mlther looked so scared. For an hour and a half I watched him rape my own mom. He smacked me and then sent me upstairs.

"I swear, if you let Aurelia find out anything about why im like this. Dont make any smart moves either. You know what will happen." He started walking up the stairs, I ran to my room. What is he hiding from his own children?
