The Path of No Return
On the day of my birthday, my cousin, who does ballet, falls and injures her leg.
My father smacks my leg with a club in a fit of rage. I cry out in pain, but he doesn't care. He sneers and says, "Now, you know how it feels! Why didn't you stop to think how much pain your cousin would be in when you pushed her and made her fall down the stairs?"
He hits me with all his might until I can't make any more sounds. To drive the lesson home, he shoves me into the basement, uncaring that I'm on the brink of death.
"I'll let you out of there once you stop thinking these dirty thoughts, Yvonne!"
But when he opens the door to the basement once more, all he sees is my decomposing corpse.
