As I walked up the stairs with a growing discomfort in my chest I could hear my mother's chaotic yelling from the basement. The words echoed in my brain and bounced from side to side.
"You useless girl! It is better that I am barren than to have a child like you!" my mother screamed.
She continued, "Go and show those fake tears to you useless father. If not for god I would have left you too!"
Her words pierced my heart like a dagger. My feet became weak and my head started to sway. I dropped my body to the ground and groaned in agony. Mother must have heard my fall from the basement, because after she yelled another thing.
"If you like, fall and die!"
With, every sentence she uttered a small piece of me shattered, my heart sinks even lower.
This has been my life for the past 13 years. My entire day is filled with insults and mockery. If it's not from my mother, it's from my brothers. I wake up with embarrassment and I sleep to the sounds of my other laughing on the phone to her friends about how worthless I am. Each night I lay in bed constantly wondering if I can make it through another day without a pierced heart.
Just a story idea....
