Chapter 13
I woke up to see him all dressed staring down at me. My first instinct was to look down at my body and all I see is blood spluttered all over my legs and all over the sheets. I feel really sore and I dont think I'll even be able to stand properly without toppling over.
"Sweatheart. your awake! how are you feeling ?"
sweetheart??? how did that happen last time I remember I was some bimbo
I have found a new partner in the brief moment I was unconcious and that is silence. Like the saying goes silence is the best answer to a fool.
I try to stand up from the bed but end up falling over on my face flatly. He gets up and tries to help me but I use a hand to steady myself on the bed and raise one hand to him meaning he should fuck off.
He raises his two hands in mock surrender and I manage to stabilize myself dragging my feet, the sheets and the rest of my body into the bathroom and shut the door ensuring that I lock it from the inside. At least this bathroom isnt an irritating stall. I stand in the bathroom staring straight into the mirror. I can barely recognize myself. The once vibrant and Life loving girl is officially dead, she has been stripped of her personality, joy and pride now living the life she only watched in movies and thought to be fictional.
All I see is nothing but a shadow of who I once was. A tear slides down my cheek but I swiftly wipe it. Making a firm promise to myself never to cry, I would never appear weak again and after this eye opener, I can't help but think of what Regina must be going through. At the thought my sister my knees begin to buckle but I stablilize myself with the sink. My face is full of marks and dried blood. My lip is cut in the center and my left eye is like an over ripe avocado, the pain surging through my back is nearly impossible to deal with, from the kicks I received the night my parents were murdered to the time that rapist threw me against the wall. I cannot let my pain destroy my life. I and my sister will get out from here and when we do, everyone better watch out.
I moved towards the bathtub, turning the lever to hot water. The steam quickly blurrs out the bathroom. A bath was my only refuge when I was tensed but no matter how hard I am scrubbing my body now, or as many times the water hits my skin, I dont feel relaxed at all, only anger, hurt, used, dumped, discarded and worthless.
I scrub down my body with the soap and shower gel positioned neately at the edges of the tub. I watch as the white sponge turns red and then white again. I scrub myself over and over but nothing can get the dirt I feel out of me. I let out a sigh and grudgingly turn off the tap, grabbing the towel drying my body and my hair.
There is a basket sitting at the corner and on top of it, is a new set of panties and a knee length black gown. Black is actually welcomed now, because I am mourning not just my parents but my soul because it also died just a few hours ago.
I step out of the bathroom to see the rapist, child molester, pedophile -I could go on calling names- sitting anxiously on the bed. I wonder why he hasn't left yet. Without sparring him a glance I head for the door and this time he doesnt try to stop me, he has gotten what he wanted. Before I depart the room I force my mouth open to ask an important question.
"Whats your name? I'm Kylie"
my voice sounded so foreign to me that if I wasnt the only female in the room, I wouldn't have recognised it. He looked shocked that I had calmed down in one shower and maybe thought we were now on good terms the fool. I'm sure he expected me to be a sobbing mess. The guilt I saw on his face was now replaced by a half smile. He runs his hands through his hair before replying and looking directly at me.
"I'm Malon but you can call me Mal"
with that I give him the best fake smile I can muster turn around and exit the door. He has just been added to my to do list.
