Visiting Part Two: Foster Home No More
"Honey. Why is there makeup on your leg?" My father asked. I looked down at my leg then back up at him and shrugged. He looked back down at my leg.
"Babe, can I see your water for a second?" My father asked my mother. She nodded and handed it to him. She watched as he tilted carefully on to a clean napkin then placed it on the table. My father started to carefully wipe the makeup off of my leg. My bruises becoming vibrant once again.
"What in the world happened to you!" My father shouted. He lifted my head carefully, "Are you wearing makeup anywhere else?" Tears began pooling in my eyes as I nodded. "Where?" "Everywhere" I said, barely audible. My father sucked in a breath then grabbed the napkin and very carefully wiped at my face. I had multiple bruises on my face and when my father saw them he gasped,
"Aubrey..Did they do this to you?" He asked. I hesitated but nodded. My father then became furious. "How long have they been doing this to you?" He asked. "Every day for 2 years" I answered quietly. I looked at my mother and she was just as furious. My father stood up and lifted me up into his arms and started walking to the car.
"When we get back, pack your bag. Your mother and I are gonna take you with us." He said. I nodded my head and he put me in the car. I could tell my father wasn't happy at all.
"Don't lose your temper Lou.." My mother said. "We trusted them Eleanor. How could they do this?" My father asked.
I could hear the rage in his voice. We got back to my foster parent's house and my mother got me out of the car and brought me inside. I quickly ran upstairs to pack my things. I tried to contain my excitement as much as I could. I heard yelling from downstairs followed by a loud crash. I jumped and whimpered. I heard footsteps running up the stairs. I wasn't sure who it was so, I panicked and quickly hid in my closet.
"Aubrey? Are you ready to go?" I heard my Father's voice. I ran out of the closet and attached myself to his leg. I started to cry. "I'm scared daddy.." I said. He lifted me up into his arms and held me tight.
"You don't need to be scared anymore baby girl. We're taking you away from this place and you'll stay with us." He said. I looked at him through my tear filled eyes and hugged him. "Don't leave me alone again daddy.." I said, crying softly into the crook of his neck. "Never again Princess.." He said softly. I sniffed and we left never turning back.
