(Jess' P.O.V.)
I feel the cold blade tear at the skin on my back. I sat stiffly on my baby brother and I's so called bedroom floor which is really the basement. Feeling little pain because of all the times she's done this before, I wrap my younger brother tightly to my chest not wanting to let go. At least he will won't have to experience the pain.
"Move scum bags." She hisses venom and hate dripping from each word.
"Yes ma'am." I say weakly before she slams the basement door.
"Ready for the first day of school?" I ask Adrian hiding my worried heart with a small smile.
"Jessie I'm scared." Adrian said looking at me with his deep brown doe eyes, he hit something in my heart making me want to hide him away, away from all the pain. Hugging me tighter he cried softly into my shirt. I look down at my brother's crop of black hair wishing he didn't have to have this life.
"It's okay buddy you'll get through it." I say rubbing his back trying to calm his nerves.
Every tear that he sheds is glued to my heart. Every word she says is embedded in my brain. Everything we do leaves a scar on my skin and less hope for the future. I hope less and less everyday while my brother hopes more and more. Adrian is the one who stopped my suicide, he's the reason I try to get good grades and work after school. He's my only reason.
I kiss my brother's forehead and help him get dressed. After I go through my pile of clothes I search for a new shirt, my backpack, my baggy UW sweatshirt and a pair of old ripped sneakers. After I put on everything I help Adrian put on his backpack, coat, and shoes. As I walk my brother to school, I hear him ask me a question.
"Jessie bear how did daddy die?" I freeze cold.
"Adrian can I tell you later please?" I kept walking. I hoped he would say yes.
"Okay Jessie Bear." He says smiling I give him one of my rare genuine smiles make his eyes light up. The only real time I have with Adrian is walking to school.
As we enter the school I can feel the familiar sense of loneliness wash over me as my brother walks to his classroom and begins to talk with his peers.
I start to walk off the school grounds after I leave I start to walk to a living hell other known as school.
