( Hi this is my first story i'm sorry if their is any mistakes as I am new to this.)
I woke up to the smell of smoke and the heat of flames. All I could hear was the crackle of the fire and screams and yelling of ... that's when I realize my family was still here too. I try running anywhere I could yelling and screaming for my parents and twin sister. I finally find my dad also yelling for my mom and sister. I run up to him hugging him but then he pushes me away. I was never really the favorite.
A million thoughts running through my head. I knew I wasn't the favorite but I never in a million years would have thought that in this situation that he would push me away. I was heartbroken, lost, and I knew I had to get out of there. I ran through the flames and falling house, I then got trapped inside a room it was on the second floor. I knew it was high so I took the curtain and tied it to the window hoping that if I fall my seven-year-old body would survive the fall.
I was halfway down the curtain when I fell onto the ground. It hurt so bad but I got up off the ground seeing fire trucks and cop cars showing up. I saw my dad come out of the house limping and coughing. I began to think of the worst-case scenarios, when I didn't see my mom and my sister come out.
We were then rushed to the hospital for how much smoke we inhaled. I had a sprained elbow and my dad a twisted ankle. Sadly my sister and mom both died in the fire. I was devastated I lost my mom and my other half. Your twin is what makes you whole, your other half, your peanut butter to the jelly, and I just lost that half.
Here I am today with my lovely dad whos always been with me and held me when I cried. Hahahahahahahaha Omg I'm sorry but that was a funny joke it's pretty much the opposite. Ever since that day I have been abused mentally and physically, Blamed, starved, and haven't had any comfort for ten whole years. Great fan-fucking-tastic father am I right. Oh if you couldn't tell I was being sarcastic.
I've also been wearing a hood since that day, And I'm secretly an underground champion. You may be wondering well then why do you let your father beat you and why don't you call the cops? Well, he threatened to kill me if I tell a soul so I haven't ... yet. I usually cover all the cuts and bruises with makeup and clothing. If your wondering has anyone seen your face no ... well except my father. I'm a redhead with blue eyes with a few freckles. I don't have anything similar to my dad except for the same nose everything else I inherited from my mother.
My twin and I were identical except for our eyes, I had big blue eyes and Callie had big green eyes. And yes my twin's name is Callie, Callie and Cassidy stuck to each other's hip. She was only older by one minute but she was still way more talented than I could ever be. What do I do? Well, all I do is fight and sing the songs I write, but of course, they didn't know that they barely paid attention to me. I know I know how sad we're twins and were treated differently but I don't want pity. I can't even blink or flinch when my dad beats me or else I get it twice as bad, I learned that the hard way.
Every day before my dad leaves to do what he usually does,( god knows he doesn't work), he beats me and makes me make him food. He doesn't allow me to eat, locks the cabinets, and the fridge. What do I eat well I pay for my own food with the money from the fights I win, which I haven't lost one I may add. I also hide stashes of food under my bed hoping I won't get ants.
I heard my dad come in, I was scared. I thought of the first thing I could do and just locked the door, knowing he had a key. I heard him coming upstairs and next thing I know i'm hiding under the bed. He cusses saying, " Bastard child can't even be at the house when I need food". As soon as he slammed the door and left the room I came out. Before i'm able to react the door opens again.
