*SLAM*
well my terrible day is about to turn to crap even more than it already has. My stepfather just got home. My mom remarried after my dad had died in combat while he was in the Marines. Mark, my unwanted stepfather was the worst decision that my mom had ever made. I personally think my mom got married to this abusive, belittling jerk because she had such a big void in her heart where my dad's love would usually be and she was so depressed and had such a need, no longer a want for love, that she fell for the first guy that would even give her the time of day and that is how my little brother Brady and I were ungratefully graced with Mark.

As I heard the pounding of Mark's footsteps coming down the hall and the cuss words already flying out of his mouth, i prayed a silent prayer to God, thanking him for keeping Brady safe and having him stay at a friends house for the night. Brady was only six and didn't understand completely what was going on. All he really knew is that Sissy didn't like Mark and Mark didn't like that.

All of a sudden the dreaded happened. I heard Mark's hand grasp my doorknob and begin to turn it. I immediately tensed up and wanted to find a way to get of there. After what seemed like ages the door finally opened and revealed a scraggly looking
Mark covered in plaster and paint. As the door opened the strong, unpleasant burning smell of whiskey came into the room along with Mark's 6 foot 4 inch tall frame.

"You're drunk again aren't you?" i said with an annoyed edge in my voice. "Don't talk to me like that you little skank! I am your father and i deserved to be treated as such." he said as his got right up in my face. "You are not my father! My father was 100 times better than you! The only reason you married my mom was for the sex!" I yelled at him, letting all of my pent up aggressions run wild. That didn't sit well with Mark at all. His eyes went dark and cold. It was like his soul left his body and a demon took over. He proceeded to wrap his bony, heroine track covered hands around my throats and squeeze until my eyes rolled back. I thought I was going to die right then and there until all of a sudden my lungs were renewed with oxygen that i had never been so happy to have. "That's what you get you little whore. next time i won't let go" mark said as he slammed my door.

Tears ran down my face but i didn't even notice. I just couldn't deal with this life anymore. I couldn't be strong for Brady anymore. I just had to find a release. I dug the razor blade out of my nightstand drawer and put it to my wrist. Just as i was about to make the first cut a notification popped up on my open computer screen. it was youtube notifying me that the Dolan Twins had just posted a new video. I clicked on it and the title of the video was "You are not Alone"
