“Tyler, just leave it.” I hissed through gritted teeth and his grip on my wrist tightened.
“Ashleigh, you know I can’t just leave it! This is not what your parents would have wanted! You’re throwing your life away.” His yelling struck a nerve as I flinched, but I quickly recovered.
“You don’t know what my parents wanted and their not here anymore so I guess you’ll never know!” I growled as I violently yanked my wrist out of his grasp, catching him off guard, and I ran up the stairs, slamming my door behind me.
Ashleigh Cole was once a normal sixteen-year-old girl, well as normal as you can be with two abstract artists for parents. Both of her parents believed in freedom of expression and they believed that the body was the best canvas. So of course Ashleigh had piercings and maybe a few different colors in her hair, but she wasn’t a bad teenager. At the age of 9, she lost her dad to an aneurism, leaving her with just her mom. Of course they got really close over the years, but when her mom goes out to run an errand for Ashleigh, she doesn’t come back. Ashleigh’s sent to live with her aunt and two cousins, but the guilt consumes her and she starts acting out. She gets into drugs and alcohol and resorts to cutting because that’s the only way she can forget about the pain. With the help of some unexpected guests and childhood friends that she forgot about, will she be able to overcome the pain of losing the two closest people in her life? Will her cousin forgive her for all the stress she put on his family? There’s only one way to find out.
