Don't Let Go

"I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP! I DON'T NEED ANYONE'S HELP!" I scream in Aaron's face. "Please just leave me alone." I tried to push past him but he grabs my arm stopping me from going anywhere.

"I'm just worried about you. If you can look me dead in the eyes and tell me that nothing is going on and you're okay then I'll leave you alone for good." Aaron says grabbing my chin forcing me to look him in his eyes.

"Well quit worrying about me cause I'm fine." I say ripping my arm out of his hold. I turn and walk away. I can feel tears trying to come out of my eyes. I don't need anyone's help I'll be fine on my own. I won't cause trouble for anyone else. Little did I know that my life was about to take a turn for the worse.
