心の底から From The Bottom Of My Heart

Part 2

"You guys go on ahead, my apartment is this way." I waved bye to to them.

"Okay, see you later Y/N!"

I watched them as they disappeared into the distance. When they were out of sight, I sat down on the curb and sighed.

I don't want to go home just yet...

After what seemed like hours that passed by, I slowly stood up. It was dark already.

I was walking for a while until I got a strange feeling that I was being watched.
I looked around, and saw nothing.
...
I shuddered as a cold draft of wind blew through. I unlocked my apartment door, and walked in. It was chaotic as usual. My father had come home drunk, and was tormenting my mother.

I quickly walked past my parent's room, and into mine.

I walk into this house, and nobody notices. I walk out, and nobody notices.

I plugged in my earbuds, and listened to music full blast.

A couple hours passed by.

I paused my music, and then looked at the time.

10:54.

I took out my earbuds, and turned off the lamp.

It was quiet..

After a while, I drifted off to sleep.

"I shouldn't have given birth to you."

I looked up and saw my mother hovering above me, her chestnut brown hair brushing the sides of my cheeks. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at me with distain.

I jumped awake, panting.

"I-it's okay Y/N... just the same reoccurring nightmare."

I muttered to myself.

I rolled over and closed my eyes, just for the alarm to start sounding a minute afterwards.

I turned off the alarm. Annoyed, I buried my face into my pillow.

Not even two minutes had passed, when my dad barged into my room.

"Still trying to go back to sleep, eh?! I don't need a lazy, good for nothing piece of shit like you as my daughter!"

He pulled me out of bed and pushed me onto the floor.
