Silence

Safaria

Safaria pov.

 I woke up to the sound of fire crackling. As I sat up I felt the cold ground under my feet. The sun was already rising."your still sleeping!!!!!" I heard my mothers voice screech. I looked up to see her towering over me

   "I-mum...I didn't mean to-"I was cut of when she slapped my face

 "Who the hell do you think you are? I give you food and shelter but you still expect me to take care of you like a three year old" her eyes were blood shot and tired ,Her breath reeked of alcohol.

 "Mother" I say in a worried tone "have you been drinking?" This earned me another slap and the whip.

Yay life

     When she was done, mother collapsed on the floor "you stupid child" she groaned through clenched teeth "you.... You deserve better....." Soon she drifted into an alcohol induced sleep.

     I decided to go hunting so I grabbed my knife and set out into the forest. It was a cool clear day perfect for hunting.

    I sat in my tree stand for an hour or two."mother should be waking up soon" I started to climb down the tree when I got the feeling that I was being watched. I turned to find no one in sight, suddenly the branch under my foot snapped and every thing went black the last thing I saw was a pale figure standing over me.
