   After school,Mark went home as usual.

   "Please no beatings,please no beatings" he chanted to himself in his mind. Luck is sometimes a dick. Mark opened the door as slowly as he can with a creak sound following. He peeked at the door.

   "Hey,Mark!"

   Mark jumped at the familiar voice. Oh shit... he cursed at himself.

  "When are you gonna work?" his father yelled at him. Mark tried to shut the door but his father had already grabbed the golden knob. He swung it opened with full force. Mark, too shocked to release his grip of the handle, flew through the door and landed on the chest.

  "Why do I have a lazy son? What did I do to deserve him?" his father screamed in anger as his hands clenched into fists. Then,he repeatedly kicking at his own son. Mark choked on air as he was gasping to breath properly as he was feeling pain at one spot. Just a few seconds,the kicking stopped. Mark felt a flush of relief washed all over him.

   "Scram! Make sure you have the money to pay the bills," he demanded. Mark slowly get up then walked quickly to the bathroom.

   He looked at the mirror. There was a thin line of red liquid that was dripping down his mouth. Luckily, it wasn't so much blood. Oh wait,luck was his side after all and was being a little dick. He turned on the tap before letting the water to flow down his hands. He sighed. Mark begining to wipe the blood off his face using just his hand and washed it after that.

  Mark took a razor that was near the sink and started to slowly slide the razor across his skin. It stings but it felt good. He now began wanting more of that feeling and he once again,slide it across his arm.

  "Shit,why did I cut at my wrist? Now Jaebum and Jackson gonna ask me questions," Mark groaned before letting go of the razor that was still have his fresh blood.

   "It's been ages since I talked."
