"Please don't do this... Please" I cried as he smirked deviously and raised the whip, then in an instant I felt a sharp, stinging pain across my chest and I yelped in pain. Then he raised it up again. "Please, stop! Stop!"
"Stop! Stop!" then I felt that I was being shaken awake.
"Clara! Clara! Wake up Clara!" I was crying and when I looked up I saw Ty and I sobbed.
"Tyrell?!" I said lowly and I jumped into his arms.
"Clara?" I heard my mom asked from in front of my door.
"I got her mom, Go back to bed" I heard Ty say as he sat down on the bed with me in his arms sobbing, I looked at my thigh and I saw a scar, I gripped onto his shirt tighter, squeezed my eyes closed and cried.
"Hey, hey your okay I got you, I got you" he whispered.
"It's like I could feel everything that's happening, it's getting worst"
"I know, but your safe now, I promise" he told me and I wiped the tears away. "You know I'm not going to sleep unless you're asleep right?" I sighed.
"I know" I closed my eyes but I never fell asleep.
*6 o'clock*
"Ty?" I looked up at him and he looked down at me.
"Hm?" I got up and looked at him.
"You didn't go to sleep?"
"I told you I wouldn't if you didn't" my eyes dropped.
"Sorry"
"You two didn't sleep?" I heard mom asked by my door and both of us looked simultaneously.
"No" I said sadly.
"Ty come here" she beckoned to him and he walked over to her.
----------------------------------------------------------*Cathy's POV*
I took him into the hall to talk to him.
"You need to go sleep, hun" and he shook his head.
"No" he replied and I put my hand on his cheek.
"Your a good brother you know that? But I got her now, so you go sleep" I pointed to his room and gave a small smile
"Mom, I--" I cut him off.
"She's fine Ty, now go" darted my hand at his door again, he sighed and walked into his room and closed the door, then I walked into Clara's room and sat on the bed next to her.
"Mom" she sobbed and I took her into my arms. "I- I felt it... It was like I was there... again" she sobbed.
"Its gonna be okay baby, you'll be fine it will go away" I comforted her.
"No mom... It got worst... It's not going away" she gripped me tight and sobbed.
"Did you tell your brother?" She nodded her head and sigh.
"Yeah" she sniffle and wiped some tears away.
"You shouldn't keep him worried like that Ara he already blames himself. Listen to me, Johnson women are strong and we go through a lot, but it's getting back up that makes us stronger, that makes us who we are, that makes us Johnsons. Honey your stronger than you think... You can get through this, we believe in you. It would go away faster with the pills tho"
"Im not taking another set of pills mom everything else we tried didn't work. Psychology and therapy isn't going to either."
"I know, but it's nothing bad it's only to stop you from dreaming at night and the dreams will subside eventually. I know this works." She sighed.
"Okay, I'll try them but only for a week if there's no improvement.."
"There will be" she took the pills from me and I sighed. "You'll be fine baby, I promise." Her cries subsided after a while. I hate seeing her like this but it was my fault. I just wish she wasn't on the receiving end of it.
"Mom?" I looked down at her.
"Yeah?" I answered stroking her hair.
"I'm sorry"
"For what?"
"For not listening to you that night" she started to sob again.
"Its okay baby, it wasn't your fault" It was mine. Where there's Johnson blood runnung, there's trauma right behind it.
