Solitude

Part Eighty Seven

My name is Adlyn. I am 13 years old,and this is my story.

When I was little my parents loved eachother,everything was perfect,nothing was wrong.

My dad started drinking,he started hitting my mom. They separated. I was put in custody of my dad to start,I was supposed to only be there for half a year,but I never saw my mom again.

I made it to 6th grade,before my dad starting hitting me,he called me names,he was drunk all the time. If I didn't get home at exactly 4:15 he beat me. I started wearing long sleeves to hide what he did. I couldn't tell anyone I got depressed I wanted to die then I met eve.

Eve couldn't say anything, she knew Adlyn didn't want her pity. She'd never wanted others' shit either. "Keep going."

Not. Right. Now.

"Ok. Hey, you wanna hear a good song?"

Sure.

Eve opened Spotify and started First Day Of My Life (by Bright Eyes).

Adlyn typed, I wish it wasn't so goddamn hard.

"So do I."

I don't believe in a god. The pain I'm going through right now, can't be any worse than hell. So, if there was a hell, I wouldn't be scared to go.

"Yeah, life is a bitch."
