I wake up pain awakens reminding me of the events that took place of last night as I get up my body stiff as i grab a simple grey dress that I've had for a while now. I quickly put on a nearly fold my sweater neatly and place it on my bed. I walk out quiet to not disturb my parents of their slumber and go to the some what run down kitchen and grab a apple of the counter as I quietly put on my shoes and walk outside slowly eating the apple savour every taste. As I walked I agian heard their whispers as they cupped their hands as if to make the shameful act less noticeable. I looked at their faces of some wich to hold fear disgust and disappointment as if I'm at fault for how I look. I quietly walk to the woods and continue eating my apple as I come to a stop infront of a tree with a small cross. "Hey little sister..." I say as I sit infront of her grave. My parents never gave her a name. So I always called her lily. "Mommy and daddy are fighting agian..they beat me agian..but I got to go to the store with mommy and daddy!" I say slight happiness evident in my voice. " I wish I could see you lilly..I wish daddy never hurt you" I say as I get up. "I have to go before I get in trouble.. bye sissy!" I say as I start to walk away back to my home knowing my parents will be asleep when I get home. As i quietly walk inside the house i slowly walk up the stairs aware to not make any noises from the old and creaky floor boards and go to my room and quickly and quietly change back into my sleep wear and neatly place my dress in my closet and lay down and look out my window to see the forest. I close my eyes and slowly fall asleep and dream of what I use to hold dear to me.
