"i've never fell in love, ive saved those feelings for you, so let's do all the stupid shit that young kids do, it's me and you, you"

I walked the sidewalk late at night letting the crisp air kiss my rosy cheeks. Could've been midnight maybe a little earlier. I couldn't stay in that house any longer, I've been with this family for three weeks maybe four, I'm not very good at keeping track. Two mothers, very very sweet women at the start, until I woke up one morning with the two of them looking over me.
"Get up sweetheart we need to get you in the bath."
I shivered remembering it, feeling the same panic I felt just days earlier. I would understand a mother bathing her child who is an infant, a toddler. I'm a twelve year old girl, I can bathe myself.
Heather held my arms 'gently' as Francesca forcefully removed my clothing. I kicked as much as I could leaving her with a few bruises. "Shh you're dirty honey, we need to wash off the evil." I thrashed harder and decided I didn't need to worry about being gentle, they were insane.
I found a dirty bench next to the main road and curled up into a ball finally letting myself cry.
"She is beginning to grow hair, shall we shave her?"
