Ciara

When I Woke Up It Was 11:00 In The Morning. I Didn't Know I Was Going To Sleep That Long. Today Is Saturday And Im Deciding To Go Back Home.

I Can't Stay Here For The Rest Of My Life And I Don't Even Have Clothes Here. Yesterday For School, I Only Had Clothes Because I Went To My House To Get Them After My Father Left For Work That Morning.

It's 2pm So My Father Should Be Home. Symir Wasn't Home So I Took It Upon Myself To Go Back To My House. As I Gathered My Stuff From The Guest Room, I Thought About How Mad Symir Is Gonna Be When He Finds Out That I Went Back Home. He'll Be Just Fine Though.

Ms. Jones Wasn't Home Either So That Was Even Better.

I Went Downstairs With My Stuff And Went Through The Back Door So That The Other Doors Would Be Locked.

I Walked Over To My House And Wandered What Would Happen To Me When I Walk In. My Father's Car Was Here So That Means He's Home.

I Stood At The Front Door And Just Looked At It.

Maybe I Wasn't Really Ready To Face Him Again. I Grabbed The Spare Key From Under The Flower Pot And Unlocked The Door.

"Dad?" The TV Was On But My Father Wasn't On The Couch Watching TV. The House Was Super Quiet And That Wasn't Like My Father.

"Dad? I'm Home!" I Called Out. I Walked Up Stairs To His Room But He Wasn't There Either.

I Placed My Stuff Down In My Room Which Had Looked The Same As Before When I Left.

I Went Back Downstairs And Went To Check The Basement. He Does Some Work Stuff Down There But He Wasn't There So I Went To Check The Garage.

When I Opened The Garage Door, I Saw Drips Of Blood. When I Walked Around The Corner, I Found My Dad Hung From Rope.

"DAD! WAIT, NO!" He Had A Gun In His Right Hand And A Knife In The Other. Blood Was Still Dripping But I Didn't Know Where It Was Coming From. There Was Blood Everywhere.

I Burst In Tears Not Knowing What To Do. Beside Him, There Was A Table With A Bottle Of Hennessy And A Glass With Some In It Along With A Note.

It Read:

Ciara, I'm Sorry For Everything I Put You And Your Mother Through. Especially You. I Never Meant For Our Lives To Be This Fucked Up. I Wanted To Protect You And Your Mother But I Guess When She Left, I Just Couldn't Handle Taking Care Of You All By Myself. I Guess You Won't Have To Worry About Anything Anymore Now That I'm Not In Your Life Anymore. I Love You Babygirl.

P.s. I Know Where You Mother Is. I Never Got The Courage To Tell You Because I Thought You And Her Would Abandon Me. She Is At 3456 Derango Ave.

After Reading What My Dad Wrote I Broke Down Into Tears. By Now, My Hands Were Shaking And I Couldn't Take In What Was Going On. He Didn't Have To Take His Life. I Understand That He Had A Drinking Problem But Instead Of Taking It Out On Me, He Could've Gotten Help.

I Got Up From The Floor And Went Back Into The House And Grabbed My Dad's Phone From The Kitchen Table.

I Dialed 911 And They Immediately Picked Up.

"911 What's Your Emergency?"
