Secret Mistake 3

106.

GIA POV

[dream sequence]...

[flashback]...

I've had enough! I'm done! I can't do this anymore! But at the same time I was afraid, scared, frightened. Taking in deep breaths knowing I had to walk into this house. I know she's waiting for me. I've been at the beach just trying to waste time. But eventually I'll have to come back here. I'm sixteen! I know I'm old enough to move out. Be better off alone.

Twisting the knob to open the door. The door always made a noise. I know she's not fixing that on purpose so she knows when I come in. Hearing her footsteps charge at me "you bitch!".

"I'm not in the mood for your shit today" I warned.

She laughed "and I give a fuck?".

Walking away from her quickly. She sucked her teeth and followed me "why don't you just leave?".

"Trust me I want to" I said. She pushed me "Don't ever talk back to me". Turning around I was face to face with the women who birthed me but she hated me. Ever wonder why the people who can have babies are sometimes the worst parents?. But the ones who struggle or can't have kids are the better parent. She stared me down "What? You want to fight?!".

Smelling her hot breath almost took me out by default. Scrunching up my face when I took a swift of the smell. I guess she took that as a yes to her question. She pushed me with her chest "Come on!". At this point, I was done. Couldn't let this woman abuse me anymore. Chest bumping her back. She was taken back when I did that "oh gia has a backbone all of sudden".

"No, I'm just done with you!" I yelled. She smiled "I'm not done with you". She smacked me across my face causing me to stagger a little. "You are worthless! Look at you!" She screamed. Standing up all the anger bottled inside me decided today was the day to come out.

Grabbing her hair and throwing her to the ground. She screamed. Punching her over and over. Feeling her nails digging in my arm. But I didn't pay any mind to the pain. She used her strength to push me off. "You dumb bitch!" Hearing her feet stomp as she came at me. Feeling her feet slam into my side. Covering myself as best as I can so I wouldn't be hurt too much.

Extending my arm and I tripped her by patching onto her foot. She fell back first. Crawling on my knees to where she fell. I got up and body slamming myself into her. This woman caused me pain throughout my life. Never was there a day she didn't put her hands on me. Or call me names.

Hovering over her... what I wanted to do I didn't. She looked at me with so much hate in her face. Gathering spit in my mouth I spat at her right in the face. I got up and ran to my room. Living her wasn't an option anymore. Packing up everything that was mine.

"Get the hell out of my house!" She screamed. I was ten steps ahead of her. Putting my hair up I put my duffle bag over my shoulder and walked out.

"That's right! Leave! We don't want you here and I know for sure no one will ever want you. You ugly piece of shit!" She said.

I laughed "and you'll always be miserable". With that I walked out the home the was never home to me. It was more like a prison. But then reality hit. Where am I going to go? Bria was an option but we aren't on good terms right now. Feeling a little overwhelmed I started walking.

The beach was closed but I climbed the fence and just set up shop on the sand. I felt so alone. Hopefully I can be out of here before the owner shows up. Don't want to get in trouble for trespassing. For the first time ever I'll be able to sleep.

The next morning I woke up to someone nudging me. Slowly opening my eyes it's the same guy that owns the place "you do know trespassing is a crime?".

I nodded "I do! But I didn't have anywhere to go".

"You're homeless?" He asked. Not wanting to tell him my business. "Not really" I lied. He moved his hair from his face and looked around. "Look I don't know your story. But it's obvious you're in trouble of some sort. I guess I can let you stay here for a little bit. But you need to find a place".

I smiled "thanks so much. I owe you one".

"What's your name?" He asked.

"G—- his girlfriend came running to him "hey silly didn't even see when you walked out". She glared at me and started rubbing her hands over his chest "come on! Let's go!".

He looked at her and back at me "be safe". I nodded "I'll try to be but thanks again". He smiled and went with the same girl. Now I don't even know if that was his girlfriend I'm assuming. Guys like him love the blonde girls who are ditzy. Shaking my head cause I had other stuff to think about. I need a place to live and then I need a damn job.

Definitely didn't see my life being like this at sixteen.
