"You know what Alex! Why don't I just end myself now! That's what you want isn't it? Me to kill myself so you can win! Well I give up..You win!" My mother stood in the kitchen holding a knife up to her arm. She was going to do it. She was going to finally end this relationship with my father...and her relationship with me and my brother. My body was shaking and everything was blurry. My ears ecoed with yelling back and forth of my parents.
"Your a worthless mother and wife! Your just a piece of meat that no one gives a shit about!" He kept saying, he soon enough left with a slammed door shut. He left me and my brother with a mother who wants to kill herself. What an amazing family.
I felt arms around me. I look over to my left to see my brother trying to pull me away from what was happening. I followed him as I tried to dadge glass shards all over the carpet. Once we got to his room he started to examine me to make sure I didn't have any glass on me.
"Are you okay Iris?" He rested his hands on my shoulder. He had tears in his eyes and his face was puffy from where our father had hit him.
"I..a-am fine," I managed to figure out to say from the shakening of my body and my voice. I just want a happy family like every house has. But instead I have abusive, mental, addicted parents who could love a ant more than their own kids. There was another slam of a door and we both rushed over to the window to see if it was our mother who had left. By the time we got to the window she was pulling out of the driveway.
I then ran to the kitchen with an ice pack and handed it to my brother Aaron.
"This needs to stop, we can't live like this anymore." he finally said.
"But where would we go?"
"Our aunts, the only person in our family who loves us."
"Aaron! Get me a beer!" boomed from outside. The voice seemed to come from our father.
"Don't do it, he'll get drunk.." My voice was filled with fear. We peaked around the corner of the kitchen to see our father. His eyebrows arched in anger. He then looked at us.
"I did not hesitate to hurt your mother and I won't do it for you both either!" He yelled at us. Once he noticed that he was not getting what he wanted, he stood up and stormed up to us. He bent down to out leavel.
"You both know that your mother and I don't love you right?"
" That's a lie!" Aaron yelled at him. He stared at him, he looks like he's going to kill my brother.Anger boiled through my veins and i lost control. I punched him into the nose knocking him back and grabbing aarons shirt and ran out of the house.
"Where are you going my little mistakes? There is no one in this world who would love you more than that garbage truck near you!" He yelled from the house. We ran, we ran so much i couldn't breath and not feel my legs.
"He's right," Aaron said in a tone I dont like from him..pitty.
"Aaron, no he's not. We can't go back. They'll kill us if we go back,"
"SO WHERE DO WE GO IRIS?" He sounded just like my father
"I am trying to help us Aaron okay,"
"This needs to stop, we can't live like this anymore." he finally said.
"But where would we go?"
"Our aunts, the only person in our family who loves us."
"Aaron! Get me a beer!" boomed from outside. The voice seemed to come from our father.
"Don't do it, he'll get drunk.." My voice was filled with fear. We peaked around the corner of the kitchen to see our father. His eyebrows arched in anger. He then looked at us.
