"Where were you?" he asks, anger lacing his voice.
"I w-was out," the teen tries replying confidently, but his voice shook majorly and he could hear the fear in his own voice.
He walks closer to the boy and with each step, he asks, "Where? Where the hell were you?!" His uncle threw him against the wall behind him. The adolescent hitting his head in the process. He could feel the man's anger growing as he grabs his shirt again, being the boy closer. "I will not tolerate this behaviour!"
Despite how stupid the boy found his words, he didn't want to make him angrier by arguing. "I'm sorry! I didn't realize what time it-"
"Quiet," the adult yells as he strikes the kid in the face to make him shut up. The only reason the boy stayed standing was because the older man was still holding onto his shirt.
The boy's uncle turns around and begins to drag him towards the closet. "You're lucky I'm fucking tired, brat," is all he says before he handcuffs the boy and throws him into the small space.
"Please! No! I'm sorry!" The door slams in his face. The only source of light was coming from the edges of the door. He was left alone with a throbbing pain in his jaw and his fear of confined spaces.
