Azalea has never really been one to tell it all. But things at home get to be too much for her to keep in. She needed to vent. What healthier way to do that than to the school counsel? Dominic needed to vent also.  Dominic's mom is an addict and still has partial custody of him and his younger sisters. He and his siblings don't have the heart to tell their father though. They still love their mother deeply and want to see her get better. Dominic still feels as though he's not making the right choice for his sisters and himself.   Azalea's father wasn't always the best man when she was younger. He'd always be drunk and stumbling about the house. But he'd never once lay a hand on her mother or his children. Her mother being disgusted with his behavior left him. That's where things took a horrible turn. She found a new man and he seemed like the perfect family man, but boy...did they misjudge him. He couldn't cook or clean worth a damn.He'd smoke over a pack a day and wouldn't even leave the room when he did. That being the reason her sister Somaya has bronchitis.    He even hit them. He would beat Azalea and her siblings sometimes for no  reason. They were too scared to tell their mother though. So she ended up with a baby by this man. It all stopped when he tried to hit the baby for crying and Azalea, Chris and Somaya wouldn't let him. That day the three of them came home from the hospital with stitches. They told their mom everything. She left him and eventually found her way back to Azalea's father. The man still comes around though, wanting to see the daughter he would've killed that night lest Azalea, Somaya, and Chrys had been there.  Azalea had so much pinned up anger and anxiety from the whole situation she could barely think. Dominic didn't want to make such a big decision in his life so soon. Either way he went it could still negatively affect someone he loves.  Here they are.
