Lost Vulnerable Soul

First: Beaten Up

Rain's

As I stare outside of the window, I realized that it has a nice view outside. The clouds are not covering the beauty of the moon and the stars are burning bright. Seems peaceful but not long enough after I heard shatters of glass falling from the second floor, and now here I am wondering  inside our humble home when will this hell end, it made me realize, no matter how peaceful the night or morning might be, it will still be another night of boxing lessons or sessions between my parents.

My Mom is actually mad again when my drunkard dad came home this morning. He didn't even sent us a message that he won't be able to go home last night and now he's drunk again when he arrived home and it seems like he continued his session because he's still drinking although he's wasted already. I don't want to pick a side as well, because, my dad may be a drunkard, but my mom is a liar and a cheater. She has been cheating on my dad for years now and no one else knows this, just me. I have been wondering why I chose to keep my mouth shut all this time when I could've told everyone what really was happening inside our house. 

Oh yeah, I know why, no one will believe me because everyone thinks that we are a perfect family.  Everyone thinks that we are okay, like everyone believes that we don't encounter problems relating to money, vices, mistresses and such. How would they know? They only look at the outer shit not on what is inside. 

I already called my twins awhile ago, what's taking them so long? I sighed at the thought of them not making it on time. I need them here. They're the only people I trust who can help me with this situation. I'm always stuck, I just can't live like this anymore. 

I stood up from my bed when I heard a loud thud outside my room. I knew that my dad was beating up my mother but I didn't want to intervene nor stop my dad from what he's doing because I knew that once I step out from that door, I will be the one getting beaten up and my mom won't even save me from those harsh hands of his however, I really don't know what happened, when I heard my mom screaming in pain, I found myself rushing out my door and there I found my father banging my mom's head at the fridge while his hands are  her hair.

I saw my mom begging him to stop but the bastard continued beating her. He even slapped her and kicked her. I can't take this anymore, seeing my mom getting punched and kicked like a punching bag so I braced myself to help her. I rushed near dad and pushed him hard and kicked his stomach, I also got a water bottle inside the fridge and continued hitting him with that.

I went to mom and wiped the blood across her lips before I turned to face my idiot father.

"Go away! What do you think you're doing again dad?! You want to kill mom? Why don't you just leave?! Huh?! Why do-", a hard and full forced slap stopped me from talking and I just found my nose bleeding. It wasn't a slap anymore, it's actually his fist that landed on my face and because of the impact, I was easily thrown off the wall.

"Who are you to tell me what to do? This is also my house and I'm the one who's in charge here. You're just my daughter! Now leave in front of me or else I'll kill you!", he said with a strong, and full of force voice. He walked towards me and removed his leather belt. I knew that he would use that thing again. With one strong whip, I felt the metal part of his belt hit my legs, with another swing, it landed on my left arm. It felt really painful but I endured it.

He continued hitting me with his belt. My body felt numb already, my face is already covered with blood. Mom stood up and went in front of me to cover me with all her might but dad pulled her again and started punching her face.

I saw how my mom got beaten up every single day of my life.

Alcohol, that's the reason why, he beats us. That's the reason why our family was torn apart. I clenched my fist as I saw that satisfied smile move across his lips. He's a monster.

I run near my mom to help her up. I stare at him for a moment and I felt a sting on my left cheek. He slapped me again.

"What are you staring at you little bitch?!", he said as he kicked my stomach. It felt like I was about to puke because when his kick landed on me, it felt like something just pushed and tangled my intestines inside. He kicked me again and I felt blood gushed out from my mouth. He kicked me once again and it was followed by a hard punch. I'm in extreme pain right now but I won't let him lay a finger on my mom again. I won't let him! Even if it kills me.

When he's about to hit me again, my twin brothers arrived and saw what dad is doing. They're always right there to the rescue. I smiled when I realized that they chose to go home instead of going to their friend's night out.

I saw Cloud pushed dad so hard that it caused him to fall back and that gave Thunder the chance to punch him hard on the nose. My brothers are strong. I know that. That's why I'm thankful. I saw how dad flinched and felt the pain when my brother Cloud also punched him. He's been kicked, punched and hit by the two.

"YOU OLD DRUNKARD?! ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE?! YOU WANT TO KILL YOUR WIFE AND DAUGHTER?!", Thunder shouted at him like a furious lion when they're done beating him up. He held me and mom in his strong arms and right there, I cried in his arms like a poor baby. Cloud also hugged us and that made me feel more secured than ever.

"I'm just beating them up because they're not useful! Especially your fucking mom!" Dad said as he marched out of the kitchen.

He's a devil.

That's all I can say. Cloud picked me up and carried me to my room while Thunder carried mom to help her rest.

Tired, messed up and weak. That's how I view myself right now as I let my twin brother carry me like a glass vase. Right now, it feels like I'm so fragile.

What hurts me more is, I can't do anything about it. While thinking about it, I didn't notice that I was already in my room and Cloud is already putting me on my bed. Right there, I cried. I cried in front of my brother.

"Hush now Rain. I'm here. Don't cry now." He said with assurance as he held me in his arms. My tears started to fall down again as I felt his embrace.

"I d-don't want to live here anymore. P-please.. Please let's live f-far away from that monster. Please." I said in between tears and sobs. I felt him tighten his hug and saw his jaw clenched and tightened.

"We will, and I promise you, we will never, ever see that man again." He said as he rubs my back and caresses my hair.

"Please.. d-don't leave me again." I said with a low and very hoarse voice. It seems like I was from a real battle. I saw him smile at me.

I felt my eyes getting heavy when he hummed me a song while caressing my hair. I'm tired from the drama. I just want to sleep and never wake up again. I just want the pain to go away. I just want everything to fade.

"Everything will be over soon Princess. Sleep now." Cloud said as he kissed my forehead. He stood up and opened the door. I don't want him to leave but I just stared at him and stayed silent as possible.

"Everything is just a nightmare Rain. Don't get used to this because we won't let you. Sleep tight princess. We all love you." And after he said that, he turned his back against me and closed my door.

Tears started to roll down my cheeks again.

That night..

I felt vulnerable and fragile.

That night...

I knew that I need a good cry to sleep.

That night...

I cried everything I have and everything I feel and drift off to sleep
