The Life Of Her

chapter 3: keeping secrets

Well it became an everyday thing ken would take his anger out on me  it was abuse, I was so scared he told me if I told anyone he'd hurt the rest of the family and if he was hurting me there was no doubt he wouldn't hurt anyone else. I was so hurt and confused I didn't know what to do or who to go to "why is he doing this to me?" I asked myself while looking in the mirrior with tears running down my face maybe it was because I wasn't his real child I guess I'll never know. At school I didn't really talk to anyone anymore I had nothing to say I'd sit and sing to myself still getting in trouble for no reason I soon got told by the doctor that I had ADHD which explains why I couldn't stay focused at school, I never really had friends at school no one liked me they bullied me I remember this group of girls who told me I was a beaver because my teeth was big. That was part of the reason why I was bad I didn't have friends my step dad was abusing me and I was on medication for ADHD, and I was jealous of my big sister she was perfect she never got into any trouble she had a group of friends and even had boys chasing her I wanted to be her I felt like I was the ugly child and what made it worse was that me and my sister went to the same school and no one knew anything about what ken was doing not even my sister.
