"No dad! Stay away!" I sprinted up the stairs and slammed my door shut. "Please don't do this!" I begged.
I heard his heavy boots on the stairs. When I knew he was just outside of the door, I cringed. "Julianna, I just want to talk."
The only talking with him is a bottle of vodka and a fist to my face. I heard my sister Veronica's car pull into the drive way, and my dad retreat back down the stairs. Saved by the sister.
It's been happening for a while now. Daddy goes to work. Daddy has a shitty day at work. Daddy comes home and cracks open the liquor cabinet, and grabs his Jack Daniels bottle. Daddy gets wasted and watches Family Guy reruns on TV. Daddy finds his drunk ass traveling up the stairs to my room.
Suddenly, he isn't the same Dad anymore. I don't know this man in front of my eyes. He takes a look at me and says, "You look just like your mother." and takes a swing to my lip.
