Chapter One

Stephanie's point of view.

"Dear diary,

It's quite some time I've shared my thoughts to you but what gives. Life sucks... After my dad passed away I was thrown into this darkness. People look at me like a total creep. Wanna know the funny part, I got so traumatized that my legs stopped working, which paralyzed me and made my life more difficult. Now I'm stuck with my step dad who scares the hell outta me, I don't think I can take this any..."

The noise echoed as I heard my mum scream as she shouts back. I wasn't sure of what I felt, the pain or the anger or that feeling of ripping the guts out from my step dad. What a dweeb...

The noise persisted as I rushed downstairs to save my mum.

Mum was crying profusely as she bled through her nose. He hits her hard on the face as she staggered across the room hitting her head on the glass table as it penetrated through her skull. She fell unconscious.

I stood as my heart raced right through my chest as I couldn't process the shock I saw right before me.

I turned at him in despair as he stood there watching mum swim in her own pool of blood. He didn't even care to lift a finger to help her.

" What have you done! ", I screamed as I couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my cheeks as I hurried towards my mum.

"Come on mum!, You can't leave me alone like this. Please mum, stay with me, we promised each other never to leave, please mum!!".  I cried out so hard that I felt my chest beginning to rip open.

"Call the ambulance", I screamed as he sat right in front me smoking his pipe.

"Get upstairs now!"

"What!"

He didn't just say that.

"Unless you don't wanna end up like that bitch over there, it's best for you to get the hell up now!" He yelled  which scared the shit out from me. I stood up slowly shivering looked at my mum and finally gazed my eyes upon him in sorrow as I knelt down in front of him.

"Please!" My nose ran as I crawled slowly toward him.

"She's all I got, I don't wanna loose her too, please!" I sniffed as I saw myself on the floor.

Did he just slap me?!.

He stood up and dragged me by the hair upstairs as I tried resisting through screaming and all. He finally through me inside my room.

"If I see you cross your room?, Imma kill you, you spoilt brat" he locked the door from outside as I ran toward it, banging at it with all I got screaming as hard as I could.

I hurriedly rushed my phone as my hands shook but I couldn't get a service. I screamed in fustration as I tried jumping off through my window which I succeeded. As I ran right through the gates, everything suddenly became blank as he knocked me out with a shovel.

*****

Everywhere seemed so hazy as I couldn't point out a thing happening. I slowly opened my eyes as I saw myself daggling around. What the hell?!. My eyes grew wide as I panicked. 

"Wished you died along with your mother" he puffed out the nasty smoke from his mouth right onto my face as he smiled and laughed in a devious way.

And suddenly, the horrific sights of my mum flashed right through me as tears dropped down my eyes.

"Where is she?" I spoke out as I wanted to burn out the smile off his face.

He smirked as he walked toward a trash bin and rolled it in front of me.

"I believe you deserve to pay your last respect before saying goodbye or perhaps joining her soon"

I couldn't get the sense of what he blabbed out from his mouth until he flipped the trash bin over with the pieces of my mum rolling off including her head.

As I saw the dead corpse, I laughed sniffing in my tears.

"That can't be my mum, I believe she's inside cooking my favorite dinner for me, your so hilarious"

I tried my possible best to doubt every bit of it. I mean, literally that can't be my mum cut off in pieces. Mum was possibly the sweetest and nicest person ever.

He then slaps me back to reality as he grabs me by the face.

"Now listen to me you little dweeb, your only alive because I'm still in my best of moods else Imma cut your skin open while you watch" 

I could literally see the aggression in his eyes and the taste of blood as he stared at me. I felt so helpless as I just nodded holding back the tears.

"Listen over here, and I mean it, if you mention this to anyone, it would be the last thing you'd ever do, cos I will make your life a living hell"  he pushes my head as he lets go of it.

I watched my life crumble right before my eyes as I couldn't believe this day would come.

Dad had just returned from the states as I ran toward him wanting for a big so badly cos I haven't seen him for ages. He threw me up so high up in the sky that I could touch the clouds and finally put me down kissing me on the forehead so deeply.

"Where's mum!"

"She went to the grocery store dad, probably be back in few minutes"

"Alright kiddo, let's throw her a surprise"

He looked so happy, as he played me around laughing so hardly.

But then everything changed when someone broke into the house before my mum could get home and shot my dad several times on the head as he layed on the floor creating a pool of blood around him. I stood paralysed with fear and disbelief. He starred at me and pointed the gun at my head. But then , the security alarm went off as it startled him. He pulled away the gun and ran off.  My mum enters as walks she walks right into the kitchen not noticing the chaos saw me standing as sweat runs through my body.

"Hey hun, what's the matter?" As she came toward me to hold me, her eyes suddenly gazed upon dad as she screamed in disbelief crawling backwards in a haste.  I couldn't help but to burst out in tears as my mum stared at me in shock not knowing what to do. She suddenly ran out of the house screaming leaving poor lil me in that dilemma.

The ropes suddenly cut loosed as I fell bruising my knee on the ground hard.

"Now pack up your dead mum up and burn the corpse",

Did he just tell me to park the pieces of my mum and burn it?! I sat helpless as I watched him with swollen eyes walking out of the garage leaving me experience the worst site of my life which is picking up the pieces of my very own mother.

Life's a bitch...
