...“You don't get to choose, I do whatever I want with her. Liam, hold her down!", Tom said...
"Amy, calm down. Breathe, slowly", Noah said.
"Five things you see
four things you feel
three things you hear
two things you smell
One thing you taste"
"Nightmare?", Iris asked
"Flashback. Where are my parents?", I asked
"In the study", Flora said licking her lips apprehensively
"Good. Noah, come with me?", I asked
"Amy, are you okay?", Noah asked slowly, testing the waters of my anger
"I want answers and I'm getting them", I responded and got up from the bed
♚ ♚ ♚
"Sweetie, you're awake", mom smiled
"Who exactly is Liam Dunlop?", I went straight to the point
"What do you mean, honey?", mom asked smiling sweetly
"I have questions and I want answers", I said firmly
"I'm sorry, what?", my mom asked losing her smile in the process
"Who wants me dead?", I asked bluntly
"I'm confused", Noah announced
"Can y'all stop lying to me for once. I'm not a child and I can take good care of myself", I snapped
"If you could you wouldn't have gotten kidnapped and raped and then we wouldn't have to be dealing with the mess you created!", mom yelled
"I can't believe you think that was my fault", I said hurt
"Maybe if you didn't always try to see the good in everybody you'd notice that a lot of people are not happy with you being around! Amberly, it's time you grew up and faced the world, stop being a baby about everything. It won't do you any good", she said, her words hitting hard. "Why didn't Fawn get kidnapped? Why you? Why did innocent you have to go through all that you went through. The nightmares, the endless pain in your body. Ask yourself that question. Why you? And then why did his family not care. Why did one visit to the library to get a project done with a good friend turn to the reason why you can't have kids?", mom screamed
"Ariana, that's enough", dad said holding her
"I'm sorry, I'm so very sorry for all the trouble I caused you. I didn't have any idea, I'm sorry I've affected your lives", I said and turned around and walked out of the study
♚ ♚ ♚
Living is one of the hardest things to do when you have something that keeps bringing you down. I didn't know I couldn't have kids. I'm seventeen and I feel as if I've lived for a hundred years. Things aren't easy, they never will be. For a year, a whole year, I almost lost my sanity. Trust for one person as ruined relationships that weren't solidified. Looking back, I don't remember either of my parents being there for me. I have done everything I can. There's pretty much nothing I can't do thanks to the fact that I want them to have a great impression of me, to be proud of me. But even when I was the best, they praised only my siblings. You might think this would make me strong but not having the love and support of your parents can only teach you to put up a facade in front of the world but when you're alone it causes you to break down. In a sick way, I learnt to cope but it hasn't stopped me from thinking about the fact that one day, I'll be alone with no one but myself. When I look at all my friends, I see the perfect lives they live. I see perfect people but when I join, it all turns chaotic. I've come a long way but it's still not making any sense, the question I have is, where do I belong?...
