Prologue
I walked home, blasting Forest Fire in my earphones and frowned at my house. The lights were off, at least one should be on. I paused my music and got my phone out, ready to call for help. I looked at the door to find it open and gently pushed it open.
"Hello? I'm home...?" I fumbled for the light and felt something sticky on it...Oh. "Please, no," I murmured as I turned on the light. I frowned at the empty hall until something wet hit my head and I look up before screaming. Mom's lifeless eyes faced my general direction as her body hung from the fixture. I walked upstairs to find dad staring at her corpse while holding a gun at some naked man's head. "Dad? What's going on?" I hoped he was going to say the naked man had broken in and killed mom...But he didn't.
"Your mother cheated on me," He explained, his face stained with tears. "I caught her and pushed her over the railing. I barely caught him...You're going to help me hide the bodies and evidence, right?" I shook my head, stepping backwards. "Then I'll have to kill you too, Talie." He pulled the trigger and before I could watch the man crumble, I was running down the stairs, calling the police. I heard a vague 'what is your emergency?' before I started talking.
"My dad killed my mom and her boyfriend and he's going to kill me," I explained before sprinting out of the house and down the road. "22 Rosewood Park, hurry!" I crossed the road and turned to see dad following me, the gun held loosely in his hand. He stumbled onto the road and a car hit him. I screamed, covering my mouth. If I hadn't known any better, I would've thought he had tripped over something but there wasn't anything he could've tripped over and I could've sworn for a split second that someone had been behind him.
