My life is pretty normal, for the most part. Both of my parents (mom and dad) are married (19 years actually), living in the same house. In my 16 almost 17 years of my life I have never experienced such a tragedy as this one. Nothing has ever had me more shaken up than this incident. This is a memoir about my life, a very sensitive point in my life that I joke about but it's very scary to think about. I hope that you can draw a message or a main point from this memoir.

"Courtney?" Courtney looked at the man beside her in the car. "When We arrive at the house, we will eat then go to the courts" "yes Garrett" "we will need to organize clothes for you too. What is your size?" "Size six" "shoes?" "Eight point five" Garrett showed a slight nod. "Do you have any allergies Courtney?" "No Garrett". 'im getting married to a man I don't know?. Typical of my parents. Use me as their slave and hand me over to someone I don't even know. What could be worse than living with them? All I have done is help. Cooking, cleaning, massages, farm work, not speak unless spoken too' spending three hours in the car, Garrett pulled up in front of large modern home. 'i guess this is his home' looking at the house, Courtney knew he had money. "Courtney, do you like the house?" "Yes your home is quite pleasant" "our home Courtney. After this afternoon, we will be married" 'i guessed that but I didn't think he would say it's our home' "let's go inside. I will show you where we will be sleeping" Courtney waited for Garrett to exit the car before she did. "I will collect your suitcase. We do need to get you a lot more newer clothes. Do you like that style?" Courtney was stunned but kept her emotions hidden. "No" "then why did you buy them?" "I did not buy them" Garrett closed the boot then walked towards Courtney. 'does her face expression ever change?' "I will take you shopping but we must eat and I need to show you around" "yes Garrett" 'is this woman like a robot?'

As I leave, the cold British wind greets me. I zip up my sweater, and start walking home. Thanks to my parents, I don't have a car. "You're too irresponsible for a car, Courtney. You can always save up for one once you leave this house," my father had scoffed when I asked him. I walk at a fast pace, hoping to avoid any random strangers lurking in the dark streets. "Hey, darling. What are you doing all alone in the dark?" I hear a voice ask. I pick up his deep, British accent. I ignore him, and start jogging. Just a few more streets... I hear his swift feet, and he grabs me from behind, pressing a wet cloth on my face. He drags me behind a building. My muffled screams are the only noise in the silent night. I try to break from his strong, yet careful hold. I wiggle under his grip, but he only lets out a sigh. "Shhhhh...don't scream...everything will be alright...shhhh..." he whispers. I feel warm tears slide down my face, and my eyesight blurs, and I stop screaming and escaping. The last thing I see are the swaying trees. Then... DARKNESS... ✯✯✯✯✯ 19-year-old Courtney Thompson hates her life. From her annoying stepmother, to her overprotective father. The only thing that keeps her alive is her brother and reading.

The "Please..." I hear her whimper and I go into full panic mode. "Calm down, okay? Deep breaths. Don't hang up. I'll be with you soon. Where are you?" I rush as I grab the car key sitting on the glass table. I run into the garage with my dad behind me. "What do you need?" Dad asks "A room. A big one." He runs back inside as I hear her voice again. "Basement...blood...Elle..." I hear sounds of movement in the background and connect the dots. Elle's bleeding, or something... "Deep breaths baby, deep breaths. It's okay, you're okay" I murmur reassuring words to her, thankful that there's no traffic. Several thoughts run through my mind as I drove to her house. The last time we spoke, she could barely stand me, but now she's calling me. I feel kinda used, but now's not the time to think about that. I reach her house in a matter of minutes and shove the door open. The house is quiet, save for my heavy breathing and footsteps. I reach the basement and take in the sight in front of me. Blair cradles her brutally beaten-up sister in her lap as she rocks herself back and forth blinking very frequently. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Currently being edited Look out for cringe worthy typos and plot loopholes

3 sides to every story Yours. Mines. And the truth I act like everything is fine. I laugh at people's jokes, I do stupid shit with my friends and I act like I have a carefree life. It's funny though.

(UNDERGOING THROUGH EDITING) My life was once a monotonous routine of work, work, and more work. The excitement was nonexistent, and my relationships were strained, especially with my mom. We'd fight constantly, and I'd often say things I'd later regret. But one argument stood out - the one where I told her I hated her, only to realize those might be the last words I ever spoke to her. That fateful evening, I returned to our shared apartment, expecting my mom's signature gesture of frustration - her pointed shoe. Instead, I was met with an eerie silence. Her favorite book lay open on her cherished couch, and her phone remained untouched. My mom's quirks were legendary, but this scene was unsettling. As I stepped further into the apartment, the air greeted me with an ominous scent - blood. My heart sank, and my mind racing, I wondered what had happened. Was my mom okay? Had our last argument triggered something irreparable? Little did I know, my life was about to take a drastic turn, one that would shatter my mundane existence and plunge me into a world of uncertainty and chaos
