Five years ago...
"Where do you think you're running to??!!" I heard that voice that I've always feared all my life. "This stupid bitch thinks she can get away from me. I know you're hiding under the table" my father's voice was so loud you could hear ten blocks away. My dad was a fierce man. I don't think I can remember the last time I saw my dad smile. "I'm sorry pls I won't do that again, I'd make sure your food has enough salt next time. I had caught a cold and I took some pills and it had some side effect so I felt dizzy and wasn't thinking straight" I could hear my mom's calmed voice and could hear her quavering a little. Does this woman think she can make me think that all is well. For goodness sake I'm fifteen, and I'm not stupid. She always tells me to go to my room whenever my dad starts his fits. "MAYBE WHEN I DEAL WITH YOU, YOU WILL NOT MAKE THAT MISTAKE EVER AGAIN!!! FOOL!" Suddenly, everywhere became silent. For a second I was about to thank God, then I heard my mom scream. Scream??? SCREAM??!!!!. The mom I knew would never scream when her husband dealt with her because, she would not want the neighborhood to hear whatever is going on. My mom always puts on this happy facade to the neighbors. Funny how many of them are envious of her and wants to have the kind of her "happy life". If only they knew......
So I ran downstairs, only to see my dad holding baseball bat about to swing at my mom. I didn't know what I was thinking, so I ran to protect my mom, only for the bat to head my head. MY PRECIOUS HEAD!!. All I saw was stars and beautiful birds dancing around me. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!!!!" I could hear my mom scream. And my dad saying "I'm sorry" repeatedly, then I fell unconscious..............
