How To Self Destruct

Dyland's Origin

Indiana, Indianapolis

January 4, 1992

Years ago before Dyland was born his father and mother Graham and Tianna lived in a urban environment. They had their oldest daughter with them Delilah who was 10 years old. Delilah saw things no child should've seen at an early age. Born on January 1st of 1989 she grew up and a broken home. Graham abused Tianna in front of Delilah as Delilah couldn't do anything but hide in fear.

Graham a brown skin man with dreads and a full grown beard standing over the small light skinned curly haired Tianna. A pretty good looking couple from the outside but inside the close doors it was tragic.

The years went by and it only grew worse Tianna sold her body to get money to provide food for her daughter. Graham had gotten locked up leaving Tianna and Delilah to fend for themselves. Six years went by fast as Delilah was nine years old. She was taking care of her mother who was sprung off drugs.

Graham came home to his baby mother and his daughter hoping to find forgiveness. He helped Tianna into rehab as she flushed the drugs out of her system. Once she was better the two ended up getting back together as they had a baby on the way. 

Dyland.

The year 1996 had arrived and Graham had gotten himself into it with the mob. He ran favors and did hits to put food on the table for his now wife and children. He couldn't get a good paying job with the felony he had so he resorted to joining the gang.

July had arrived and he had gotten a call from Delilah that Tianna was in the hospital. He rushed to get to the big square building as he made his way to the desk. It wasn't long until he was by his wife's side with her hands and his as he encouraged her to birth their baby boy.

Hours went by and Tianna's immune system grew weak as she bled more and more while pushing out Dyland. Finally he arrived on July 4th of 1996 as the doctor placed the baby into Graham's arms. Graham was happy to birth his son as he smile wide talking to the baby boy. A loud beep rang throughout the room as everyone went quiet before noticing Tianna had passed away.

Tianna died giving birth to Dyland.

Dyland

I wake up looking at the ceiling as today was my ninth birthday. I rush into my dads room as he was watching tv. He looks up at me and snarls up his face. "Hey dad!" I nearly scream as I was anxious to see where he was going to take me. January he got my older sister Delilah a brand new bmw. "How many times do I have to tell you I'm not your father!" He snaps at me as it catches me by surprised. My father always resented me... neglected me... he hated me.

"But dad... It's my.." I started to say as he threw his remote at me as it smacked me in my face as I fell on my ass. I grab my face crying from the pain as he was standing above me. "Your a demon!" He kicks me in my stomach hard as I wince in pain. He would always call me names... satans spawn... the devil... a demon. I tried to ignore it even though it hurt I was growing immune to his words.... but today... today hurts the most. This was his first time attacking me... I was scared.

"Dad... your hurting me." I tell him but he doesn't care as he continued to attack me. He gets shoved off of me as I look up to see my older sister Delilah defending me. "What the fuck dad!" She snaps at him as he pushes her out of his face. "This has gone on long enough!" She tells him as she helps me up as I look into my fathers eyes. "He's a murderer. I can feel it Delilah that's satan himself!" He tells her as she covers my ears but I can still hear him.
