Afraid

BOOM! BOOM! sounds from my bedroom door, groaning under the pressure as if it was going to break in half at any moment. " Get the fuck out of bed stupid bitch," I hear from the man who's supposed to be my protector. " If you make me late again, I promise you'll regret it for the rest of your pathetic life!" He screams at me through the door. Hearing his loud foot steps stomp down the hallway. I roll over on my side sitting up from the torn futon I call my bed.

I had found it by someone's garbage cans walking home from school a couple weeks ago. It was covered in dog hair and a few stains I wasn't sure what they were from. I dragged it behind me taking breaks in between the six blocks, till I reached my neighbor Tawnya's house. Grunting as I pulled the heavy mattress into her back yard over to the garden hose. 

I doused it in the antibacterial soap I had been given that day in health class. I stood partially bent over scrubbing away the dog hair with a few of the stains that came out. After washing it the best I could with my hands, I pulled it behind the garage attached to my house. Hoping no one would see it and it would be able to dry in the sun till tomorrow. Sure would beat sleeping on the hardwood floor with my one blanket.

Blinking as the memory fades. I start scrambling through my small backpack that carried the two outfits I owned with the few hygiene products I was able to gather from the school's lost and found. I grab out the small bottle of shampoo and slowly make my way to my door, removing the chair that was placed under the door handle. Listening with my ear against the hard wood for any signs that he may be on this floor. Hearing nothing I fling the door open running down the hallway into the bathroom quickly and quietly closing and locking the door, not wanting to let him know where I was in the house.

Glancing up into the mirror I cringe at the sight of my messy hair. It was going to take me quite some time to comb it out with my fingers. I wasn't aloud to have a hair brush, do to me using it as a weapon the last time he tried to hit me. I had broken the brush across his face, leaving him with a medium size cut under his eye, with a small black eye. He took me down to the basement that night. Leaving me there chained to the wall in the hidden room behind the wine cellular for over a week, with no food and only an applesauce size container for water, every other day if I was lucky he remembered.

Shaking the vivid thought from my head. I turn around turning the shower on. Praying he wouldn't try to come in like last time. I hop in wasting no time washing my hair and body, worried he would try to break the lock to get to me. Sliding the shower curtain to the side, stepping out I freeze at the sound of foot steps on the other side of the door. Tighting the towel around my body, I move brassing myself against the door, waiting for what could possibly follow. When I hear him grumble out "You have less then two minutes to get the fuck out, before I come in there and rip you out you fucking whore!" Holding my breath I lean on the wood listening to his foot steps getting quieter the further he walks away.

Twisting the door knob I swing the door open hearing it smack against the wall franticly making my way to my room again. Slamming and locking the door behind me. " You better not break any of my doors in my fucking house you dumb bitch!" He screams from the floor underneath me. With as much speed I could muster I get dressed while furiously trying to tame my curls with my fingers enough to put my hair up into a pony tail. Finally managing to do so, I start to gather my homework and books I'll need for the day. Today was a black day meaning I would get to see two of my favorite teachers, Mr. Jacobs from Math and Mrs. Mulberry from science. They always made class fun. Striding over to my bedroom door, I slowly unlock it not wanting to be any where near him. But unfornately he has to give me a ride to school everyday and we have to walk into the school together so he can sign me in each day.

Mrs. Mulberry called Child Services making a report that she was extremly worried something bad had happened to me, when I hadn't shown up for school two weeks in a row without my parent excusing my absences, causing a social worker to show up at my step father's girlfriend's house. He had put her address down as our home address in my emergency contact information. Becky had spoke to the social worker telling her that my father had taken me to go see the doctor sense I wasn't getting better," The lady bought her story for the time, soon coming back five days later two check up on me. My step father had predicted she would show up again sooner or later. So he forced me to stay at his girlfriend's house with him for the next week. I was told to " Stay in bed and act like I was terribly sick," from both of them. Which I actual was from them refusing to feed me any food. I had dark circles under my eyes and my skin was really pale from malnourishment. This is what the social worker saw when she had arrived. Becky came in carrying a small bowl of chicken noodle soup with a couple saltine crackers on a plate. " I hope you'll be able to keep one of these down today," she says to me as she came over to me feeling my forehead like I had a fever, faking the small smile she gave me and the soical worker.

My step father and the soical worker spoke downstairs before she left. I heard her apologizing to him " For the false accusations and she hopes I feel better soon." Even the though the case woker had given the all clear that I was truly sick and hopefully would be better soon. Mrs. Mulberry insisted to the principal that my step father had pulled one over on Child Services. Sense that incident my principal Mrs. Wenstien told my step father he needed to sign me in each day with me present has a sign of good faith I was healthy and okay.

I was brought out of my hesitation with the angry tone of him yelling " Why the fuck are you not down here standing by the fucking front door already!"  I scurried from my room down the stairs hoping he wouldn't slap me acroos the face like he did yesterday. We ended up being late because of the red mark displayed across the right side of my cheek from him hitting me. As I reached the door I see him raise his hand out of the corner of my eye. I flinch back waiting for the impact of his hand to make contact, but it never does. I slowly open my eyes to see him standing there fuming with hate in his eyes clenching his fists. " Just get in the fucking truck before I change my mind!" he screams at me spraying me in the face with spit from his agape mouth.

Side stepping around him I open the door quickly and run to the truck flinging the door open, hopping into the back of the cab on the passengers side. A few minutes pass and I hear the creaking of the drivers door as he gets into the drivers seat. Glancing back at me through the rear view mirror.    " Why the fuck did she have to leave me with a piece of shit like you, you should have just died along side her,"  he says looking away starting the truck and pulling out of the drive way.

If only he knew, how much I wished each morning I awake, that I to had died with her that day.

New boy
The ride to school was a slow and painful one. Being on consistent alert that he could pull over at any given time and rip me from the back seat, had my stomach churning and tied in knots. We soon reached the school's parking lot. I watched as a few other students hurried away into the building. As he parked his truck I hear him tell me " To get my filthy piece of shit ass out of his truck!" I scramble to open the door hurrying to get out. I walk quickly to walk in front of him, taking the few steps two at a time to get faster into the school. Coming into the school's office Mrs. Sanchez's sweet voice sings out " Good morning  Mr. Sterlite and Jasmine," I smile faintly at her taking a seat in one of the chairs waiting for him to sign me in and soon leave. Tapping my foot nervously I look around to see Mrs. Mulberry glowering at my step father, before she looks over at me giving me the warmest smile. My attentiom quickly adverting to the pain in my left leg. " You b

Unforgiving memories
The rest of school went by in a blur. Not caring for all the prying eyes after my emotional display in English. I would say most of the looks were of pity... but in my life all I did was give them more ammo to make fun of my loss and bully me more. Thankful to be almost home, I see that my step father's truck is missing from the driveway. Praying that ment an easy night for me. I slowly crack the front door open, walking in. I stop for a few seconds listening to make sure I wasn't being deceived and he really wasn't home. I had learned the hard way a few times before. Thinking he was gone only to run straight smack into him earning me a split lip, a long cut down my back near my spine and no food for three days. Creeping quietly throughout the house I let out the breath I had been holding in, thankful he actually wasn't here. I go to the kitchen in hopes of maybe finding some left over food he may have forgotten about. I search the fridge scooting all the beer to the side an

Secret admirer
My nerves were on fire, making me itch all over. I couldn't sit still. Sitting in the kitchen at the table, glancing every few seconds to the clock on the stove. Those two hours of waiting to head over to Tawnya's house were unbearable. Jumping at every little noise. A few times I could have sworn, I heard the roaring of his truck's engine pulling into the driveway. With my pace quickened I had headed into the livingroom. Peeking out from behind the black satin curtains. My eyes rapidly scanning from the driveway to the curb sitting out front of the house. Breathing out a sigh of relief, that my mind was only playing tricks on me.I hated that I couldn't even enjoy the time of being by myself. My anxiety consistently sky rocketing making me feel tired and sick. Worried when he might show up. My life was an neverending nightmare, reliving flash backs on a daily basis of the torture he put me through. Everything in this house was a reminder of the pain I went through and still

Surprise
 Moving quickly I rushed out grabbing the white box, glancing over to my house breathing out in a sigh of relief that my step father still wasn't home and wouldn't see me out here, as I walk back into the house T looks at the rectangular box in my arms smiling wide. " Santa brrr-ot you a present early!" she squeals out in excitement. I chuckle at her sweet innocence. " Nooo, I don't think it was Santa. He's still on vacation until Christmas," I tell her. She seems to ponder over what I said. " Yeah its still to warm for Ruud- olf," she sweetly answers. Smiling at her sweet face noding my head up and down chuckling lighlty. I carry the rectangular box into the kitchen placing it down on the table. My thoughts racing as my nerves begin to go haywire the longer I stare at the box. For the life of me I couldn't figure out who would have left something like this for me... I didn't have any friends or family that cared about me or boys who liked me and Mrs. Mulberry always gave me he

Unexpected Guest
A loud thud rang out through the house downstairs, making me jolt awake, my body trembling lightly as I sat up on the guest bed listening for any more racket. Jumping as I heard another loud thud followed by a few poorly choosen words. I scurried from the bed sprinting across the room to the door; cracking it just enough for me to peek through the small opening. Not hearing anymore noises or cursing from down below. I gather the small bit of courage I could aquire and made my way down the hall to the stairs, as reached the stairs the sound of glass shattering bounced off the air in the house followed by a " Oh for fucks sake! That's going to be great to fucking clean up in the morining Darren!" I hear a voice bellow out. I hurried down the stairs flicking on the livingroom light were alll the camotion seemed to be coming from. Stepping into the livingroom I am met with an upset Tawnya and the guy I presume to be Darren stuck in the frame of Tawnya's coffe table and glass scatterd ar

Morning After
Waking up the next day to the steady sound of the alarm beeping, I could feel every tight pinch of my muscles, as they protested angerly with every slight movement I took. Sitting up I say a quiet thank you to whoever maybe listening up above thankful to see Tasha was still peacefully sleeping. I don't think I could have dealt with her pulling and hugging on my legs at the moment. Today was going to be a long day at school, three hours of sleep wasn't much to go on for the day. Grabbing my back pack I slowly move to stand, groaning as I made my way out of the room and across the hall to the bathroom. Happy to see that it was empty. I quickly walked in turning and locking the door behind me. Moving at a snails pace I head over to the shower, grumbling out as a sharp pain radiated down my back from bending over to turn it on.  My arms felt like jello everytime I lifted them to wash or rinse my hair, at one point I had even dropped the soap, watching it slide back and fort

Minute Longer
I couldn't do anything but stare out the back window as Tawnya's car pulled further away from my house. I just prayed that he wouldn't show up at my school and I wasn't sure what I was going to tell Mrs. Sanchez as to why he wasn't here today to sign me in. I'm so seriously screwed! Why, would I do something so stupid like this! If only I had just stood there for a mintue longer, I wouldn't be in this postion I am right now! Maybe I am as stupid as he tells me... What person in their right mind would risks getting tortured just so they weren't late to school.  " Jazzy, will you sing the Abc's with me?" I hear T's sweet voice ask me, breaking me out of my frantic thoughts. " I would love to sing the Abc's with you," I answer her softly.  I had to force my mind to stay focus on T as I sang along with her. Her face was so bright with happiness as her voice went up high and down low with each letter she squealed out, causing a small chuckle out of me and her mom. I was

Hi everyone! I'm sooooo turly sorry that I haven't been able to update as frequently as I would like and it's been quite sometime sense I have.... Unfortunately as I have mentioned before, I have been struggling with being sick on top of having family and friends pass away over these last few months. I wish what I was typing was an update on more Chapters but sadly, I'm typing in hopes of asking for more of everyone's patience. My underlying health has been horrible and I haven't been getting better. So I'm going to be scheduled for surgery soon. Any and all prayers that could be sent my way would be a blessing in this struggling time. I hope in the coming weeks or month that I will be feeling myself again soon and will be able to get back to writing at full force! I just wanted to let you all know I didn't forget about you all and I'm thankful for each of your support! Thank you for reading!  S. Jones
