I was on my way to the parking lot after school when Ella ran up to me and said "Vick, we are going to a concert today wanna come?" I thought it over first.
Well I don't want to go home and as long as i'm home before six i'm free. "I'll go" Ella squealed in excitement and literally dragged me to her car where Victory and Victor were already waiting. I greeted them and got in the passenger seat. "Whose concert are we going to?" Without taking her eyes of the road she said " only one of the best gospel musicians of all time, her name is Lauren Daigle" wait what!? I didn't sign up for gospel no no no "um guys i'm not really a fan of christian song and stuff like that" Ella smiled and said " Don't worry just one song pleeasssse, i promise if you don't like it we'll leave" i sighed and knew i was not getting out of this so i just nodded my head.
After a twenty minute drive, we parked in front of a parking lot that was arranged for the concert, people were already there, Emily literally dragged me to the front row. After like ten minutes of waiting, it was announced that the singer was coming up. This brings back so much memories.
She started singing a song i was really fond of 'i am yours' and it took everything in me not to cry, Ella noticed and she asked " hey are you okay?" I nodded my head and smiled to the best of my ability, she didn't seem to believe me but decided to drop it. I returned my attention to the singer and heard the lyrics of the song, that was the song that was playing when it happened.
Flashback
" Let the waters rise, i will stand as the oceans roar,
Let the earth shake beneath me let the mountains fall
You are God over the storm and i am yours" i heard a knock on my door and i shouted come in, my uncle entered not too long after, i smiled and greeted.him he came in and asked to ppay a game, i smiled and agree.
We decided to play a game i made about who can sing the loudest, i was winning when i felt a hand on my thigh, it was my uncle i took a step back and said "Uncle Mark wha.. what are you doing?" I knew exactly what he was trying to do, i was going to make a run for it, when i tried to open the door it was locked, no no no this isn't happening, i let tears stream down my face when my uncle came and threw me on my bed, before i knew it he hovering over me pinning me to the bed with one hand while the other was unbuttoning my jeans. I tried to wiggle out of his grip to no avail then i tried the only available option next, i kneed him where the sun doesn't shine he groaned in pain and fell with and umph, so i quickly ran to the door trying to unlock it but with my shaking hands i was unable to unlock it before my.uncle recovered from the pain.
"You shouldn't have done that Vick" and with that he threw me on the floor then ripped my top off and started kissing my neck, i wiggled under his arm as tears ran freely down my cheeks but everything was to no avail, i did not bother fighting him anymore.
It was the worst day of my life, when i told my dad he did not believe me, he told me that i was a liar and even if it was true i would have been the one to cause it with my slutty dressing. Ever since then i cried myself to sleep every night and when i slept i always had night mares.
"Vick....... VICK!!" i snapped out of my trance and saw Ella and the twins looking at me with concern written all over their faces, i smiled and nodded. They did not really look convinced, " then why are you crying?" Wait what! I touched my face and that was when i realized that my face was wet. I smiled and told them.nothing. they all nodded then Ella whispered " know that if you ever need to talk i'm here" i smiled and thanked her. It was already dark, i quickly checked the time 7:00 pm, no no no i'm dead.
"Ella please could you drop me home" she nodded and told the twins she was going to come back. We rushed to the car and when i say we i mean i ran to the car while Ella tried to catch up.
By the time we were in front of my house, i thanked her and waited for her to drive off before entering my house. Immediately i entered i was hit with the smell of alcohol and my dad making his way towards me, this is gonna hurt.
