Callie's P.O.V

--------------------------------------------------

"Robert not to loud we might wake them up"

"I dont give a flippin fūck if my sorry excuse of children wake up. Now where THE HELL IS MY DAMN BOOZE"

I groan and wipe my eyes, adjusting to the sunlight that streamed into my room. A loud thud woke me from my senses. I ran down the hall checking on my brother Jaden. Thankfully he was sound asleep, light snores escaping his lips. He was a heavy sleeper for a five year old. I tiptoed downstairs to see my mother on the ground clutching her cheek

"Mummy?" My fathers head snapped towards my direction. "Why is mummy on the floor?"

"Oh nothing hunny, she just fell. How pathetic" his breath was laced with alcohol and his voice was slurred.

" Now doll come 'ere and give papa some sugar" my father walked closer and closer, and with each step, i seemed to become smaller and smaller.

"Get. The. Hell. Away. From. Her. " my mum said, her voice full with anger and fury

"You can beat me day and night, but i will never let you touch her." The next thing I know, im dragged into my room and shoved to the floor.

"Stay down, or your going to end up like your mother" my father said, with a smirk. I wimpered as i heard the door slam shut, and the lock closing. I crawled up into the corner and sobbed. I grabbed Ms. Fluffykins my stuffed penguin and held on tight. Whimpers escaped my lips as i shook with fear and panic. After what seemed like hours, i was awoken by a loud thud

"LEAVE HER ALONE YOU SELF ABSOBED PRICK" a sharp slap echoed along the empty hallways. I cowered again into the corner, hands against my ears. I heard a cabnit open and something click

"Arent you lucky you got to see Callie before your wiped off the face of the earth" That was the last day i ever saw my mom. And to make things worse, this was on the morning of my birthday.

------------------------------------

It was a peaceful day in Melbourne, Australia, when suddenly

RING RING RING

"UGH SHUT THE FŪCK UP" i slam my hand over the alarm clock again and again until the ringing sound came to a stop. I shuffle out of bed and reach toward my phone. Wow. That was all i could think of when a large array of messages started listing on my home screen;all of which belonged to my best friend, CeCe. I decide to call her, i wasnt in the mood to reply to her.

" HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALLIE-BEAR" CeCe yelled. Taking a moment to adjust to my temporary hearing loss, i replied

"THANKS CECE UM. BEAR?" I yelled trying to compare with the blaring voice, but failing misrably.

"Wow. After all our years of tears and laughter, thats my friggen nick name?" This was true. She was there for me during the death of my mother and the dissapearence of my father. Her family took me in, while i was still trying to contact any of my remaining family. Luckly my aunt took me in. But that was 9 years ago

"Yep" I said popping the -p.

"Oh well. Haha. Can i come over? I have a surprise for you Callie."

"Yeah! Why not. My aunts out of town anyways, and Jaden being Jaden, is still sleeping."

"GREAT! Im coming over now." After she hung up i went to check on my sleeping princess. I knocked on his door

"Jaayyy. Jaden. Are you awake?" i walked towards the bed. Turning around, I walked out of the door looking for him. I turned into the kitchen and looked around. One of the cabnet doors were slightly open. Sure enought, there Jaden was asleep. Shaking him, i said "Jaden wake the hell up."
