       My name is Alyssa and I am 15 years old I was born in Arizona. Today I found out my dad was cheating on my mom with a stupid whore for the past few months, it made me angry and free... My dad had always abused me and my mom, my dad was always drunk, he would leave our house to go to a bar and drink, my dad even did drugs. My life was a huge fireball of spiraling emotions, I never knew how to control my feelings so I never cried or told anyone about my life inside that house but today was the day my mom finally had the courage to move.  We waited until my dad left to go drink at a bar that night and when he left my mom and I packed some of our most treasured things and left that hell house we called home. The journey was long and tiring, my mom had bags under her eyes from not sleeping night and night sometimes I would hear her cry in her sleep.

   Alyssa's POV:

We had about 3 more hours until we made it to Tulsa, Oklahoma so I decided to ask my mom some questions as in why specifically we were going to Tulsa, Oklahoma. She said we had some Indian family up there. I am mostly native american belonging into the Sauk n fox, Iowa, and Otoe tribe, My mom and I talked for hours about our heritage and funny stories of how I was as a baby and about what school I was going into, but we never talked about my dad once. we now had about 20 minutes until we made it to my grandpa Leroy's house, my mom would tell me stories about how Grandpa Leroy was mainly her dad her whole life and how he was a really nice man, and how he would always have gum in his pocket for her, my aunt and my uncle. Then she told me the most surprising thing in my life!

Mom: Hey Alyssa...I have something I have to tell you.

Alyssa: If it's be a nice house guest I know... I will be on my best behavior.

Mom: Yes that but something else I should have told you a long time ago.

Alyssa: I am kind of worried now... but what is it.

Mom: well you shouldn't be worried because about 17 years ago me and your dad had a son and we named him Dallas.

Alyssa: WHAT! I HAVE A BROTHER! so hes like 17?!?? "I say suprisingly"

Mom: yes, tomorrow we are supposed to meet him at a Dennys.

Alyssa: wait, wait, wait. How come you never told me? Where does he live? and what happend?

Mom: Alyssa. You are overwhelming me with a lot of questions. this is a story for another time. you got that clear?

Alyssa: Yes ma'm "I say in an annoying tone"

Mom: good, we are here.

Alyssa's POV:

I look and see a good medium sized house about maybe 2 story's, I look around and see a small little house across the street it was kind of dark but I noticed someone through the window getting beat up I wanted to do something but I was to afraid to confront them. It looked like a huge man beating his child and screaming every possible insulting word you could say to a human being. then I watched as the door flung open and he ran, boy that kid could run real fast. I thought poor kid. Then my mom yelled for me to come inside and greet my cousins and my grandpa.

Alyssa: Sorry mom,... I dropped something

Mom: It's fine shake your grandpas hand.

Alyssa: " I shook his hand" Hello I'm Alyssa

Grandpa Leroy: Wow you are pretty tall do you play basketball?

Alyssa: "I chuckled" no but I am going to try out this year, I play Soccer and Tennis.
