The nightmare

I see them again and again and again laughing, pointing, throwing stuff at me. I run around a corner to try to prevent it as I open my eyes. I'm at home on the couch watching TV when my step dad came in super drunk. As usual, he walked over to me and pushed me off the couch he then proceeded to yell at me and call me lazy and told me to go to bed and to clean the kitchen in the morning before I went to school, I nodded and was walking upstairs when I felt something hit my back I looked down to see his shoes, "Give a clear answer Alicia he said annoyed "Yes sir" I say tur ing amd walking up the stairs when I felt a sharp pain in my back I turned and looked at my step dad he looked angry and started marching up the stairs towards me I started to climb the stairs to my room so he didn't push me down the stairs like he did one night on accident as I walked into my room he walked in after me and yelled me for walking away from him when he was talking to me he then slapped me across the face and called me lazy again and that I never do anything in this house, as he walked out of my room he slammed it shut and walked down stairs I sat on my bed and felt tears forming in my eye he then came back into the room and punched me I then screamed and ran out of the room after seeing he had a snake in his hands, As I ran downstairs I tripped and fell when I got up I saw nothing but darkness when my step dad appeared he was about to hit when I shot awake and let out a scream and all my brothers and my cousins ran into the room with a worried expressions.
