Her Savior

AN: Before you read this, I just want y'all to know that this is actually about my life, but the characters and ages are different. I would appreciate if you would just give the book a chance, and be prepared for sexual content and terrible situations. Thx~author.

Jabez POV

So Ali just ran outta my house because she was almost an hour and a half late for curfew. Let me break it down to you. Aliana is the middle child of three and the most hated child. Her oldest sister, Laniyah, just turned 25 and has been out of the house since she went to college. Her youngest brother, Nate, is 15 and loves everything about his life. Then there's Aliana. Her mom and dad were never married, so they separated when Ali was 6. Nate and Ali used to go over their dad's house every other weekend. (Ali and Nate has the same dad. Laniyah has a different one.) Whenever Ali would go over, her dad was always mad and was always screaming at Nate, just because he liked pink or because he played with Ali's toys. He just didn't like Nate. But he was different to Ali. She was his first child and his only daughter, so she was daddy's little girl. That all changed when Ali started hitting puberty. Her dad would always find a way to touch her. He still wanted to bathe her, which Ali knew was wrong, but she didn't say anything because it was her dad and she didn't want her dad to get in trouble. Well that was until one night, her dad told her to call him when she finished bathing herself, which she did. He came in, and started washing her, and then as he approached her area, he dropped the washcloth and basically fingered her. Aliana was crying and yelling stop but he just told her to shut up. This went on for a couple of years because Ali didn't want her dad to get in trouble. Until she finally lost it and couldn't eat or sleep because of it. Her grades were dropping and she all of a sudden started being a lot more quieter than she ever was. She ended up telling her mom and it put a bad reputation on her dad. He apparently raped one of his coworkers and abused his ex-wife. He was put on leave so that his job wouldn't get a bad reputation. He didn't and still hasn't served a day in prison because he was the chief of police. It ended up being publicized and everyone at school found out and Ali had non-stop humiliation filling her days. After that, Ali's world began falling apart and her mom changed a lot. She started yelling at Ali for random things and started hitting her. Ali went to the counselor at school and told her, but all they did was called Ali's mom, which made it even worse. That's why Ali stays wearing makeup because if teachers saw her face, she might be taken from Nate, he was the only reason why she stayed.

Soon enough Ali texted me "goodnight", but that was around 12, meaning that her mom was definitely up when she got home, and she definitely has to put on more makeup in the morning.

Aliana POV

"So where the hell have you been?" my mom said as I tried to sneak into the house.
"I was at Jabez's house helping them with a YouTube video" I said, trying to convince her that nothing else happened.
"Oh really? Well then why are you just now getting home? You get out of school at 3:30 Ali! That would have been plenty of time to film a damn video and make it home BEFORE your curfew!" She screamed. I really wanted her to be quiet so that Nate won't wake up because I hate him seeing both of us like this.
"Momma. can you please lower your voice so you don't wake up Na-"
"LOWER MY VOICE? LOWER MY MOTHERFUCKING VOICE??? ARE YOU TELLING ME WHAT TO DO?"
"No ma'am. I was just asking so that you won't wake him u-" BOW. She slapped me and knocked me onto the floor. I can't fight back because it is my mom, and it would just make the situation worse. She kept hitting me while her cancer stick was still in her mouth.

I got up and ran up the stairs while she probably went to go smoke another cigarette. I closed my door and did my hygiene and just looked at the bruises and hand prints on my face mostly. I got out and texted Jabez "goodnight" then set my alarm, turned it all the way up, and cried myself. "Just one more year" I thought to myself.

This was just a chapter so that y'all can understand Aliana a little better. If you have any questions, please ask. I don't mind speaking about my experiences. The only thing about this is just that Ali is 17 but irl, I'm 15 and it happened to me when I turned 7 and lasted until I was 9. But like always, vote, comment, and hmu with ideas, questions, concerns, anything. Love y'all~ 😘
