Don't nobody know the half of what we go through. It has always been just me and my younger sister Nichole. We been all each other got for as long as i can remember. Our life started going down hill ever since our father left us when i was nine. I guess he just got tired of being a dad and went to go get a pack of cigarettes one day and never looked back. My mother really never been the same ever since he left. My dad has always took care of us so my mother never really had to work. A lil after my dad left my mom decided she wanted to be a stripper , using she gotta have money to take care of us as an excuse when she couldve just got a regular 9-5. I guess she wanted to be a stripper because it was fast money and all she had to do was shake her ass and take off her clothes. Embarrassing was an understatement. When i was about 14 my mom then turn to drugs realll bad. She would always bring different dudes in and out the house until she met a man named Mr. Ricky. Mr. ricky was kool at first tryna win step daddy of the year award, but one day that all changed , he came home real drunk one night and i walked in on him in my sisters room tryna touch her where the sun dont shine at. I came in there just in time and told him i do whatever he want me to long as a he leave my sister alone. He never took my virginity thank God but he made me watch him play wit hisself and touched me where a grown ass man shouldnt be touchin a young gurl at. I bear the pain and hurt he puts me through so my sister wouldnt have to. Well i am 17 years old now and my sister is 15 and nothing much has changed since back than my mother is still strung out and mr. ricky still does what he does and we should be living our best life as teenagers in highschool but the world doesn't work like that. Im just ready to finish my last year in high school so i can finally get me and my sister outta the situation we in. Welcome to my life.
