      I looked at my uncle, I realized he was no better than my dad. I listened from my room as he beat on his girlfriend. She was screaming and it reminded me of how I felt when my dad beat on me. I didn't want this for another women. I know I can't stop all of domestic violence but what I can i will. I stood up my blood was pumping and I felt froggy so I leaped. As I approached him she saw me and pretended everything was fine. But I didn't care I knew what was happening so I Yelled "STOPPPPPPPP!!" he got one last hit in and turned around. He looked at me and said "Go back in your room" the lady looked at him and said "You have a daughter?" I looked at her then back at him and said "I'm not his daughter, I'm his niece and I will not allow you to hit her again" I looked at the women and said "Get out" she looked at me like I came down from Heaven with a million dollars. She was grateful and as she walked by me she quietly said "Thank you". My uncle starred at me and once she walked out he approached me. I looked at him with tears in my eye. I realized he was tipsy. He grabbed me and hugged me. Then he slammed me onto the ground and yelled. "MIND YO DAMN BUSINESS" he was going crazy and I did not understand why. He superman punched me repeatedly and slung me into the wall. I didn't even beg him to stop this time because I knew he wouldn't. It hurt so much and I kept crying, I sat there until he yelled "LEAVE!" I walked out limping. I walked into the room and sat in corner crying. I grabbed the blanket and covered myself.  I stayed there and didn't move I just stayed there and cried. 15 minutes later I heard Tyrell and Louis walking in.


Tyrell: "Ay, where's Iyana?". Louis looked around curiously and the walked in my room. My uncle was drunk almost passed out on the couch. Louis approached me and I looked up with tears in my eyes. then Tyrell walked in. I looked at Tyrell and back down. Louis asked me what Happened to my eye, i didn't respond. As soon as Louis asked Tyrell stormed out the room and approached my uncle he jerked him up and started yelling at him. Louis held me on the ground cuddling me as I cried he looked at me and said you deserve better than this. He helped me up, grabbed my bag and put everything in it. As we walked out I saw my uncle he was dead. I don't know how he died but since Tyrell was no longer inside I assume it was him.  Me and Louis walked out the apartment and my leg was hurting so bad I barely could walk. He laid me in the backseat of the car and I completely dozed off. When I woke up I was in Louis's room. He was sitting on the bed beside me and he handed me some ointment and an ice pack. I asked him to the ointment on and he did. I grabbed the ice pack sat up and hugged him. He held me and stayed there for a while until I feel asleep again and he left. I heard his mother walking in she had man with her and she sounded drunk. I could tell he just wanted to do it right away but she was way to drunk. I walked out the room and he looked at me. He put her to bed and approached me. He asked what happened to me and I said I don't wanna talk about it. He asked if I was hungry. I said yes and he fixed me some spaghetti. I finished eating and said Thank you. He washed off my plate and I walked into my room to go to sleep. He walked in the room and shut the door he sat on the bed and said "You owe me" I looked at him and I already knew what was going to happen. He laid down on top of me, pulled down my pants and panties and then pulled down his. It hurt so much and I begged him to stop and I cried and begged him to stop. But, he never did once he finished he left. And, I curled up and just cried Louis finally came back. I went to sleep as he walked into the room. He laid down beside me and went to sleep. I wish he never left because I pretended to be okay but no matter where I went I was suffering.
