Emily's Pov

As the sky darkens out my window, I slowly shut my eyelids as they become to heavy for me, the exhaustion runs through my body not letting it move. I hear the all to familiar yelling from down stairs, every night there arguing about something. My dad is always drinking and is just a genuinely angry man, with the mix of alcohol it just doesn't end well . My older brother, Tony is always worried about mom all this mental abuse, we  tried calling the cops one night but our dad threatened physical harm on mom.

I stared out the window, watching the sunset disappearing into darkness as a tear rolls down my face, it hurts me hearing this as much as we try and help we just make it worse. My eyes continue to close as I fall into a deep lumber.

I suddenly hear a loud crash and jolt up as fast as I can I run to the door and look down the hall  to see my brother as well with a worried face. We run to see what happened, my dad standing there with a half smashed wine glass in his hand and my mom on the floor. I scream in horror and Tony rushes to her side, i watched the blood roll down her forehead as tears on my cheeks followed. My dad must of left because the front door is wide open and there is no longer any trace of him except the bloody wine bottle smashed lying on the floor.  "Holy shit" I say out loud as my hands shake  while I diel emergency services. 

Watching my mom get out on the stretcher was hard, her face was pale and almost lifeless. she had taken a few beatings before getting hit with the wine bottle it looked like. We went to the hospital with her because I couldn't leave her side.

time skip~  a few days later

After receiving the information that my mom was in a coma and the doctors had no idea when she would wake up nor if she would I lost it, but I still had hope for her. Going back to the house was even miserable then before. I figured that going to the park next to it would be better, it was calm. No one ever comes here that's why i like it.

School starts up again in a week and I've never dreaded anything more. I just want my mom to be ok, "please I'm begging" I said in a croaked whimper, it was the first time I had talked in a while. 

For the next week if I wasn't at the hospital I was at the park, it slowly but surely started to become my place to think, and go to whenever I needed. It was a dark area, every time the wind blows the swings would creak but the grass was beautifully green and it backed on to a quiet little river. i don't know why no one comes here its beautiful. the flowers on the other side of the river reminded me of my mom. Blue Curls, they where her favourite every time she would take us to the park she would pick some to take home. They made her happy.

It started to get late so I decided to get going, Tony sat at the table crying that was the first time i had seen him cry. He hides it really well but looking at the look on his face this wasn't good.

She's gone. I completely broke down and ran as fast as I could to the park, I ran to the river, and broke down. Shaking  I sat down my head in my knees on the bridge. Day quickly turned into night as I checked my phone it was already 10.
