"The ones that are supposed to protect us, hurts us in ways no one can."

I suddenly feel a stinging pain on my left cheek. I open my eyes to find my dad looking down at me with a scowl.

"You filthy girl! I told you many times to wake up early and give me my damn breakfast! But you still act like a lazy ass. If you don't give my breakfast in 5 minutes then I'll give you a good beating and won't pay you a dime.

I hold my stinging cheek with my hand and nod. He goes away saying profanities at me.

I stand up picking my blanket, folding it properly and putting it on the edge of my bed. I go in my bathroom, take the brush out from the cabinet and brush my teeth, then wash my face. I get under the hot shower and have a quick bath not wanting to anger him anymore. After wrapping a thin towel around me, I clean the fog off the cabinet mirror and look at myself.

My once bright brown eyes look dull and lifeless. My nose has a small bruise on it because a couple of days ago my dad punched me on it as I didn't wake up early. My lips are chapped and dry. My neck has red angry fingerprints on it from yesterday when Aaron raped me again.

I feel tears welling in my eyes but I blink a couple of times to stop them from falling down my face. I get out of the bathroom open up my wardrobe with two jeans and three t-shirts inside it. I throw on a long sleeved turtle neck shirt and jeans. Tie my hair up in a ponytail and walk downstairs slowly as the wooden stairs creak alot due to no renovation.

I walk into the kitchen and get to cooking. I make his eggs and bacon, put it on a plate and keep it on the table. I then put jam on my bread and walk into the living room, take my bag and get out of the hellhole.

I am walking down the steps of the school when I am pulled by my hand. I look up and it's Aaron.
"Aaron look I have a really important paper to complete today. I can't come with you today. Please let me go home." I beg looking at him.

"So what? You are smart baby. You'll be able to do it even after I am done with you. And it won't take much of your time so shut the fuck up and get in the car," he opens the door of his car pushing me in.

I pathetically submit and sit in without much resistance. He gets in and starts driving. I look down at my hands, dreading what he'll make me do today. The car stops and I look around only to see the graveyard. I feel scared and look at him, "Aaron why are we here? I thought you'll take me to your home."

"Well baby I wanted to try it somewhere different. So just stop with these stupid questions and take off your clothes." he says taking off his clothes.

"No, I don't want to do it here. This is very disrespectful to the dead. Please let's go somewhere else." My face jerks to the left with the force of his slap, my cheek and lips hurt.

"Shut up you stupid bitch! Do what I fucking tell you to do! Or else you will get fucked and I'll beat the crap out of you after it!" And just like that my clothes are forcefully tugged off me. I am pulled harshly to the backseat and thrown on it. He spreads my legs and takes off his underwear.

And.... I just look up with tears forming in my eyes. Why me? Why is God so cruel to me? Am I a bad person? Have I ever hurt anyone to deserve this? The tears keep falling down the side of my face.

He wraps his fingers around my neck choking me. "You like that bitch, don't you? I will fuck you real good. You'll feel me inside you even after I am gone. Hahaha!"

*****

I walk towards my house with dark red fingerprints on my neck and wrists. I open the door and get inside closing the door behind me. I am relieved that pathetic piece of a father isn't at home. Putting my bag on the worn out sofa, I walk up the stairs and get into the bathroom.

I sit down to pee only to feel excruciating pain. Oh god, it hurts so much. I grab my other arm and dig my nails into it trying to distract myself.

I don't even look at the mirror while walking out of the bathroom. I don't want to see my pathetic bruised face. I am tired of looking at myself and crying. Laying on the bed, my eyes close feeling exhausted from all day's stress.

I wake up to feel a meaty hand caressing my cheek, then my neck and it starts going to my chest. My eyes open up only to scream loudly,  "What the fuck are you doing?" I push him back hard and stand up.

"You look so much like your mother. I just wanted to love you a little. I know daddy is harsh on you babygirl but I am here now. I will love you all night long." He comes onto me and grabs me around my waist hard. I try to break free but I am too weak compared to him.

"No! No!!! Get off me you filthy pig! I don't want your fucking love! You should be ashamed!" with tears in my eyes I scream.

"You bitch! How dare you say that!? You should be happy I am loving your pathetic face and body. You dare refuse me!"

He punches me on the cheek so hard that blood drips down the corner of my lips and I fall on the floor. I feel dizzy for a moment and all I feel is pain and a bubbling anger.

He lays on top of me, kisses my neck and a chill runs down my spine. There is nothing in the world that can dsigust me more than this. I try pushing him away again but he doesn't even budge.

No! I don't want to be raped again. And not by someone who I call dad!

A sudden burning anger fills me. I bite on his ear as hard as I can. "Aahhh! You fucking bitch! Leave my ear right now!" He tries to push me away but I bite down even harder. He screams again painfully, pushing me so hard that he falls back and my head gets banged on the floor.

It hurts so bad. I put my hand back and touch the area where it hurts only to feel something liquid on my fingertips. I bring my hand infront of me only to see blood, then everything goes dark.
