Lisa
I have always wondered about my parents. Why they gave birth to me. Why have a child, if you can't take proper care of them. Maybe for the first few years of their life, you may treat them like they are so special, and then, once they get old enough, you dump them like they are trash. Drinking, cheating, screaming, abuse. My parents are like that. My parents never made me happy. I don't remember the time when I was happy. My memory goes back to the first time my father hit me. And the first time my mother cheated.
My parents, think I'm a nuisance to their life. I have an older brother. But he died a few years ago due to a drug overdose. It killed me inside to know he was suffering too... But knowing my parents didn't give a damn, it made me hate them even more. My parents forced my drop out, and I live in my fathers basement. Never again will I attempt to understand them. Never again will I attempt to help them. Never again....

December 12th
6:10AMWhen I wake up in the morning, I can hear screaming upstairs. I ignore the noise and cover myself with the blanket I have over me. I lay on a single couch in the basement that I attempted to look nice. However, my dad makes it a mess almost every night, forcing me to stay up and clean it again.
I don't have much down here. I couch as I mentioned before, a few CDs, a coffee table, a spare bathroom, a shower, and my own iPod that helps me escape from the noise that fogs up my mind.
As I sit there, wondering about what my dad possibly could be screaming about now, I grab my iPod that is sitting on the coffee table next to me, and turn it on. I scroll through a few 500 songs before hitting the one I wanted. Once I play it, it let my mind be taken in by its sweet, calming melodies.
I would be called odd, but even though I am German, I listen to Japanese music. I just find the songs comforting depending on who I listen to. Artists like Soraru, Hashiyan, Un:c, Shonnen T, VipTenchou, and so many more... Some songs are really upbeat and fast, others are nice and soothing.
My thoughts are interrupted by a slam the door that leads down the the basement. "Lisa!! Get your ass up here right now!" I hear my father scream. I wonder why he had to yell everything he said... I'm right there. I can hear him fine...
I set down my iPod and quickly bolt up the stairs, not caring that I don't have pajama pants on. Once I get to my father, his eyes are bloodshot and he looks enraged. I could have sworn I locked the door...
"Don't you know what time it is?!" He spits in my face. His breath smells foul. He has been drinking until the break of dawn... But I shake my head.
"You took my clock away s-" My words stop coming as a sharp slap to my face, forces it to stop. I take no mind to the stinging sensation in my cheek. I look down to the floor.
"Don't you dare say that to me! It's fucking 6AM! You were supposed to go and get my beer! 6AM sharp everyday you understand?! It has been that way forever!!" His words come out slurred. I can barely understand him... "So get your lazy ass dressed and go!"
I nod at his command and slowly walk down the stairs. Once my father slams the door shut, I feel tears flood in my eyes. But I push them back. I can't afford to cry. I haven't ever cried in front of my father. I can't. It would make me seem useless to him, and if that happened, I would be out in the snow within seconds.
I throw a long sleeved shirt and a light jacket with the words, Free drawn across the back, along with dark boot cut jeans. I pull my hood over my head and grab my iPod only to switch it on again. I grab the money I have and my fathers ID, and exit out of the basement.
