Chapter #2. Leaving Home

"SAGE!!!!!" I heard my name being yelled across the house.

That's when my mom came running into my room.

"What did you do to your brother!?"She yelled at the top of her lungs.

While holding the hand of my 17 year old twin brother who had a black eye.

I stared at her blankly for while.

It was only when the silence remained did she yell again.

"Are you going to explain yourself!?"Even then silenced remained.

'I have put up with this my whole life now's not that big of a deal.'

Although instead of leaving she still continued to yell.

"I regret ever giving birth to you!!"

That is what she said but that was not all.

"You should have run away ages ago!"

"Your brother, your dad, and I would be way happier".

"Instead of having another mouth to feed!"

" Why!?Why!?Why!?Why do you always have to be a bother!?"

"Your uncle Mike is just as much of a pain also!"

She bombarded me with insults.I was silent the whole time.Just listening to insult after insult.

I was calm the entire time it was only when she insulted uncle mike did I snap.

"you can call me or tell me whatever you want but don't and I mean don't insult my uncle!!!"I said.

It started off as a mumble but turned into a scream at the end.

My mom stared at me wide eyed for a minute.She couldn't process that I finally yelled back.

Only when she finally grasp it did she say back."You dare yell at your own mother, you ass hole."

She was going to say more but My dad walked in and when he did he meant business.

He was carrying a belt.

I started to shake in fear but it was then that he hit me with it.

WOP!!! It then came at me again.

WOP!!! He then hit me three more times.

WOP!! WOP!! WOP!! It was then did I finally feel a part of me shatter.

I finally rose up to my feet and yanked the belt from his grasp and punched him in the face.

My mind blanked after that and I stormed out the house.

That night I got arrested for assault.

Although I didn't do any time it was only because of my uncle and his gorgeous lawyer who got my uncle custody of me.

I never had to go back to that nightmare again.
