holding on

"Hi um, this is awkward but this is my story of my life and well, try to keep an open mind, it's pretty fucked up."Tess wrote on the second page of the journal she had stolen from her teacher Mrs. Krafler. after about ten minutes of her staring into space she began to write on the next page. "As a kid, I was the one your mom told you stay' away from, the kid who rarely went to school, the rule breaker, after all rules are just made to be broken."
she then skipped a line and wrote "Let me just explain some shit. my dad raped me as a kid and. beat my family, so in kindergarten my mom left him taking me and my siblings, Justin my brother and Ashton my little sister. though she meant to give us a better life it kinda worked out the opposite."
