3:02 am
I woke up in the same dark, cold room. The moon was shining through my window. The trees scratching against the side of the house. I felt my heart beat pick up. I heard my sister and brother snoring in the other room. Then....CRASH!! I jumped out of bed and grabbed my phone off the nightstand. I ran and opened my room door. Then I heard crying. Then... "Don't die... Please don't die". I realized my mom was talking. Dad?? I thought. I ran out the door to my parents bedroom. Then I saw them. My mom was holding my dads hand in her hand. He was bleeding. There was so much blood. I stood there in shock, then my mom got up and shook me. "CALL THE COPS!!!!!!" I snapped out of it and called. My dad was dead when the ambulance got there. That was two years ago.
Since then, my mom has started beating my sister and doing drugs. Everything went so down hill. Today, I start 10th grade. Maybe I'll meet a boy.
Alex
Our parents died when I was 2. I into the foster care system with my sister Reegan. I was told my parents died in a elevator accident. I know dumb right. Apparently the building they were in was on fire. And the cable snapped. Reegan and I have been through alot. We've been beaten and malnourished. I always try to protect my sister but i always fail her. That is going to stop Today. Today we start 10th grade. I hope I meet a girl.
Reegan
Looking in my bedroom mirror I stare at myself. today I'm starting what people in society call tenth grade. I'm semi- excited but not so much I mean it's another year and another year of being a nobody. My brother and I have been through so much and I know it's not my fault but I feel guilty. He's my big brother I want him happy I mean all the time, not just when I bring him pizza.
Sighing softly I walk out of my bedroom bringing my bag along with me. I run down the stairs into the kitchen seeing Alex eating a bowl of grapes. As soon as I turn the corner his head turns in my direction
"Good morning baby sister", he says as grapes fall out of his mouth.
I laugh and walk up to him " Good morning big brother", I say hugging him then walking to the fridge.
" Today is gonna be a good day",he says.
" Yeah maybe",I say softly.
Jane
" JANE GET YOUR BUTT UP AND GET DOWNSTAIRS! " my sister holly yelled by now she's downstairs already making Pancakes and bacon
" OKAY I'M UP I'M UP! " sighing loudly i get out of bed and walk over to my closet i scan my rack of clothes before grabbing anything i sat my eyes on the first thing that looked decent a white cotton jacket with a nice grey
" School is common life is not " shirt and some skinny black jeans. After taking a shower walking over to my mirror i sigh and look at myself..is there any real reason were all here...i mean people just come and go...my father was here and then he was gone....why are we here
" no matter what happens promise me that my little girl will stay strong no matter what promise me, promise me "
".....i promise daddy "
Jogging downstairs minding my own business i began walking down the long hallway leading to the kitchen
" BAM!", Crashing into the wall i look up at what literally just made my soul leave my body!
My idiot brother..
" Dustin why would you do that", He is literally the most irritating person i have ever met in my life.
