I stood still waiting for his hand to hit home. It seemed like my body was the home of blows and I couldn't deny that.

A person can get used to anything when given enough time. Right now I was used to all of it.

His fist hit the wall behind me loudly as he cursed under his breath furiously.

I didn't move or tremble, I was used to it all and if he had hit me I wouldn't have been scared.

Nick came and held him back as he spoke fast in words I couldn't grasp.

    " Noo," I screamed furiously as I kicked my legs in vain. His eyes grew wild as he laughed and roared in an ugly voice. " Papa," I cried as his hands tightened and I began coughing in snore like sounds. He lifted my head and hit it back on the ground and I tried to scream in pain but no voice came out. I lifted my hands trying to hold on to something as I took my last few breaths on earth. I don't know how but I managed to hold his neck too but and atrte squeezing too. His monster monster strength was nothing compared to my humane little strength as my eyes bulged out if their sockets. Just as I gathered a little strength and began squeezing his neck a weight from nowhere pulled me from under him making me hit the ground. As I coughed in desperation holding my chest and sore throat, I heard someo

Even though I had never been to times square, I felt like that towards life itself.If I sat by the same spot with patience for long enough I would come across People that I was looking for or people that I had lost.The world is in constant motion and those who passed by at one time will come back to the same spot to finish their circle.Right now, that's what I wanted to believe in. That's what I wanted to happen. I just wanted to stand in one spot and look at the whole circle and try to figure out where I went wrong." Sorry I shouted at you, but you scared me with Luke and got my heart racing and blood boiling," she breathed." It's okay, I would have done the same," I nodded."

    I looked at Elaine and she signaled me with her finger to keep quiet.The person kept banging the door and it was almost giving away from it's hinges.I kept quiet and tried steading my breathe and taking control of my reflexes.Luke was sleeping peacefully again and it seemed the continuous pounding had not gotten to his ears."I think you should ask what he or she wants," I whispered to Elaine." Let's just see if he'll go away," she whispered back.We kept quiet for a while and the pounding continued.Whoever it was had a firm determination to get in and keep quiet about it.After a while I felt my ears screaming at me to keep the voices out.

His perfect image and clock had fallen off and wherever he was I knew he was aware.All my life I had been trying to steal a love that was intended for some perfect princess he failed to mold me into.Yesterday night had left me so jaded and forever emotionally damaged.I held onto the pillow that was supporting my head like a life raft.
