The door flew open and my father stormed in, "get up you lazy shit!" He yelled.

I sat up startled by the sudden outburst. Grabbing my hair, he dragged me onto the floor and started hitting me.

Reaching into his coat, he pulled out a pocket knife and held it against my skin. "Don't scream or I will do it," He smirked.

His body hovered over mine, punching me over and over again until I couldn't feel a thing and the room around me went dark.

I finally pried my eyes apart and sat up so fast I had to steady myself for a moment.

I scooted as far back as I could until my back collided with the head of my bed, my knees reaching my chin in an instant. After taking in my surroundings I calmed myself, taking note that only a nightmare had occurred. Taking a glimpse at the time, it was 8:15am.

Hearing a small knock on my bedroom door, I sat back in my place normally. "Come in," I quietly spoke.

The door opened a lot softer then it had in my nightmare, and in walked my mum. "How's the packing going Ali, all done?" She questioned in a soft tone.

I nodded sending her a faint smile. "I promise, everything's going to be fine. You will fit in at Penola!"

"Hopefully, I just get nervous when I have to make new friends," I spoke truthfully.

"I know you do, but your beautiful and such a sweet girl, you'll make friends in no time!" She beamed, wrapping her arms around me.

"Come on, your fathers finished packing the car. We're just waiting for your things," she said as she picked up half of my bags and headed out leaving me to admire my room for the last time.

I stood up to follow her, looking at my now bare bedroom. Before walking out to the car, and putting my headphones in for the trip.
