Elizabeth's pov
The next morning I was meeting up with Debbie; she wanted to get to know me so I met her at the little café in the village. I was sat waiting for her to come in.
"Sorry I'm late" Debbie apologised as she walked into the café, I nodded as I looked up, Debbie's eyes widened as I looked up to her.
"How'd you get that?" Debbie asked sitting down and putting her hand to my cheek.
"Come on Beth' think of something!" I told myself as I ran a hand through my hair.
"Mum told me you live with your dad, did he do that?" Debbie asked me.
"No, never. He wouldn't do that" I lied with a nervous chuckle. Which I guess wasn't very convincing.
"You've tried lying Now try tell me the truth" Debbie grinned reading me.
"Fine but you can't tell anyone; not a single sole" I looked to my older half sister as I chewed on my bottom lip.
"I promise Beth' your secrets safe with me" Debbie nodded. I looked down and took a deep breath as I planned what I was going to say out in my head.
"Ever since I was little my dad would hit me, he'd use me as a punchbag if he was angry. I blamed myself for almost all of it. He'd always say that Mum was a unfit mother which I can't comment on because I don't know her that well but I wanted to know her. I grew up being obsessed with drama, dance and singing so I made dad pay for the lessons just so I could stay out the house and I'd threaten that I'd tell someone what he does to me. I got home yesterday and dad asked me where I had been, I said shops because I actually was going after I picked up my things for the class I was teaching. He didn't believe me and decided he wanted to teach me a lesson" I explained to my half sister who shook her head at me.
"You need to report it. You can't keep going on like this." Debbie said forcefully.
"I can't Debbie! He's a detective; He'll know how to get himself off, he'll say I got into a fight or something like that. You can't make me" I panicked, I felt my sister take both my hands in hers.
"Beth' he can't get away with hurting you, your his daughter not some old punchbag! Either you report him or I'll do it" Debbie demanded and I looked down, I was contemplating actually going to the police, to stop the hell
"Would you come with me?" I asked biting my lip
"Of course and your staying with me tonight" Debbie smiled, that was it; I was going to report my dad, maybe this wasn't going to be a bad choice reporting my dad from all the crap he's put me through.
