Damn i was lost in my thoughts again. When I regain my focus i see aunt Lucy standing in the doorway with a fire roaring in her sapphire blue eyes, her eyes are filled with so much rage and hatred. Aunt Lucy walks towards me with every stride filled with power and anger.No!!! I scream but she doesn't stop,she keeps going until she is standing right next to my bed. Her presence next to me makes my body go into protective mode,all my muscles tighten as i start to crawl into a ball bit before i can fully finish this movement i feel a hard stinging sensation across my face.

The impact nearly knocks my lights out but i still stay conscious. Aunt Lucy drags me off my bed and slams me onto the hard wooden floor, she starts kicking me ferociously and curses over and over. My body hurts and my muscles burn like there is a fire blazing throughout my body. I still try to resist her and fight back, but shes too strong. "you and your mother had every thing you bitch, what did i get nothing your mother stole everything from me now you are going to have to pay." "it not my fault" i cry out but she just kicks me harder. After what seems like hours(1 minute) i stop resisting and crawl into a ball and soak in every blow as it comes.

 After 5 more minutes Aunt Lucy leaves the room slamming the door as she leaves. i stay on the floor in a tight ball on the floor for a few more minutes. after i can take the pain no more I run into the shower under the scolding hot water some how the water scolding my skin relaxes me. I stare at the wall in the shower drowning myself in my thoughts once again.

How has my life turned form amazing to shit? How have I gone from being treated like a princess to being beaten and abused? Damn i hate this house now! this house used to be a safe place when Ma and Daddy where with me, now I'm not even safe in my own room.

Dear God please give me the strength to get though this and find my parents again and to bring the face of my abusive aunt and uncle to the world.

After getting dressed and slathering a load of makeup on the bruises of my face. I quietly sneak down the staircase to the front door. I really hope i can sneak out before anyone notices.

when i get to the mall i see Andy siting at the food court in front of Starbucks waiting for me. Andy is the only person i trust now, the only person that fully gets me, the only person that makes me feel safe as if being with him no one will ever be able to lay a hand on me again. I am going to tell him about the abuse today no mater what he deserves to know he is my bestest friend in the whole world.

As i approach Andy the expression in his face concerns me, i don't know why but i feel like he going to tell me something that wont be good
