"Who do you think you are?" I heard loud yelling from my father. This wasn't uncommonly for our so called 'family'. Dad would come home drunk and vented all on mom and me.
A loud strike vibrated the walls of the house. He hit her, again. Mom was crying and he yelled at her unmercifully.
"Of course you don't know. I'll tell you. You are nothing but a whore, unuseful slut..." It hurted to hear those words although they weren't intended to me. My mother was the only persone who actually listened to me. A few drops of tears accidentally slipped from my cheeks.
"Nick, please..." mom begged.
"Here!" he said trowing some papers next to her. She looked at them sweeping her tears.
"You are all doing it because of her, aren't you? For some woman that destroyed our family and marrige?" dad looked at her like he is about to hit her again, but he didn't.
"Sign it!" he commanded. Mom took a pen from the table and started to write while her hand was shaking.
"Here" she said giving him the papers. "Let me at least take her with me?!"
"Get out of here and don't ever come back." he replayed whit his hand showing the door. She bent her head and walked to the door. She took a one last look at me and walked out of the door forever.
That was the last time I saw my mom. Without a hug or a goodbye. She didn't call or write. The only person I ever trusted. She left without return. Who will save me from dad now?
Only a few days later, dads new wife Zoella and her daughter Bianca and son Kyle moved in with us.
"And this is the maid?"Zoella asked pointing her finger at me.
"No,this is, unfortunately, my daughter."he said embarrassingly. Am I that bad that my father would be ashamed of me? I bent my head and started walking to my room, but dads strident voice stopped me.
"Where do you think you are going? Take their bags to the rooms." I took their bags and took them to the rooms. Zoella's son started walking behind me and at the second floor he stopped me by grabbing my hand.
"Don't worry, my mom is a bitch and so is my sister. But I got your back." and he hugged me.
At that time I didn't know what that means. I was really young back then. A 10 year old boy who is supposed to hate me, doesn't?
8 years later
I just finished school for this week and was about to go home. A male voice stopped me and I turned around happy to see one of the only persons I trust.
Kyle.
"Going home?" he asked joyfully.
"Where else. It's my prison." I sighted. He smiled a little bit and put his hand around my shoulder as we both walked home together.
Kyle knows everything from my life and so do I from his. We really bonded over last few years that I think of him like my real brother. He helped me trough all the family drama and he was always there for me.
Kyle keeps a good relationship with our family or at least they think so. They don't hate him like they hate me, but he hates them. From the day I met him he hated my dad and even his stupid sister and mom. I know that it's weird to hate his mom, but he said that she turned into money obsessed monster after she married my dad.
*************
So the weekend flew my really fast. I heard someone coming into my room, but I was to much tired to look who it was.
"Wake up, you're gonna be late for school." as I heard that, I jumped out of the bed and took my phone to see the time. It was currently Monday, 6:30 am. My stupid stepbrother messed with my head. I looked at him clearly pissed of, but he did nothing except laughing.
"You should've seen your face, it was hilarious." he was laughing like an idiot.
"God, I hate you." I exclaimed.
"I know you love me." he smiled and I gave him the sarcastic smile which made him laugh even more. I lied on bed and he lied next to me.
"Can I ask you something?" I asked really curiously. This is probably the only question I never asked him and I don't know why. He turned his head to face me. He looked me directly into my eyes.
"You know you always can." he gave me a small smile.
"Why didn't you left this house after turning 18?"
"To take care of you, of course." he smiled.
"No, Kyle, I mean it. And by the way I can take care of myself."
"I'm dead serious. I know how they all treat you and I can't bare the thought of leaving you all alone in this madness." he said and looked back at the ceiling.
"Thank you." I simply replied and hugged him. He broke the hug after a solid 2 minutes.
"Okay, so enough of this cheesy sister-brother love. Let's go to school." he said while getting up from the bed.
"I need to get ready first, you know." I said showing my outfit with my hands. I was in his t.shirt that I stole from his cause you know it's way more comfy than my shirts.
"You have 20 minutes."
"Ay, ay, captain." I moved my hand from my forehead trough air. You know, like that thing they do in pirate movies.
So, let's skip that boring ride and everything.
I was currently in my classroom waiting for the professor to come. In that moment a well know guy entered the classroom and it was like in the movies. Those slow motion scenes. Everyone stopped and looked at him. I mean them.
Haze West.
Schools bad boy. Every school has one, but this one was not ordinary at all. Everyone knew Haze West. He always got away with everything. He was a real meaning of a bad boy. Although, he was handsome. I mean, girl would be blind not to notice it. But I didn't like all that ego and all of that.
After few minutes he took his seat and no one was looking and him anymore cause you would be stupid to do that.
******
"Are you sure you can do it?" I overheard Liam, aka Haze's friend ask him.
"Completely sure."he gave him that perv look.
"So, 3 months?" Liam asked him.
"That should be enough." he replied. I really wonder what were they talking about. "That girl?" he asked and I saw his finger pointing somewhere in my direction. I looked at them and the worst thing possible happened. Our eyes locked.
Noora Adams, you just broke the most important rule in this school and that is: --Never look Haze West in the eyes.--
I'm doomed.
