I woke up and looked out my window. It was dark, raining, and we were at a gas station. My dad hopped back into the car and smiled at me, "Morning sleepy head." I looked at the clock 1:01. I than looked to him, "Have you slept?"
He nodded, "Yeah. I slept for a couple of hours here. I woke up about 20 minutes ago, dediced I needed gas and a drink." I looked to his can. I was filled with horror and shock.
"Beer?" I asked. He smiled and nodded again, "Our lives are going to end might as well live them." He pulled out of the parking lot and onto the streets.
I pointed to the beer, "That is not living! That's dieing!" He shrugged and took a drink. He nodded and made the mmm... sound. Meaning it was good. I rolled my eyes, "Gross."
After awhile a thought came to mind, "Hey dad?"
"Ya?"
I was looking out the window but dedcided to look at him, "What happened to Brynn?"
My dad's face stayed an emotional block, "She got pregnat." Meaning he left her to deal with the child on her own. She's probably going to give the child away.
I nodd when I saw his ear twitch, he was lieing. "Hmm mmh... What really happened to her?"
He looked to me, "What do you mean?"
"Your ear twitched signaling your lieing."
"What if my ear just twitched?" It did it again.
I gave him the, 'I'm not stupid' look. "The truth."
"Why should I? You still haven't told me what got us into this mess."
I sighed, "Fine. I'll tell you, you tell me."
He nodded, "Deal."
I began to explain. His grip tightened on the stearing wheel, he snarled his lips, and buffed out his chest when I told him about Tanner. He turned to me with rage, "What!?"
I did the best I could to defend myself, "I'm sorry! My life has gotten so lonely! He just came up to me and looked so innocent!"
"Looks can be decieving Claire! Take me for example!"
I puffed, "I learned my lesson now dad but..."
"Learned your lesson!" He interrupted, "You should've learned your lesson with Logan!"
"Logan wasn't bad!"
"You can never trust anyone with the life you were born into...."
"You mean the life I was FORCED into!"
He slapped me, "Shut up! Shut up you damn, worthless, money stealing, monster!"
"SAYS THE MURDER!!" I yell.
George pulled over and looked at me with more rage than he ever has before. He got out of the car and pulled me with him. He took off his belt and started beating me.
"Please!"
I gasped for air.
"Stop!"
I gasped again.
"Please!"
"You should think ahead!" He snapped.
I felt tears falling out of my eyes as the belt hit my back. Than and again and again.
I will always be alone.
