MILLICENT'S POV
When we got home, we found the door open, me and my sis we muttered under our breathes "ohh cakes, he's back". We sneaked into the house, when Lissa was about to reach the kitchen a flower pot hit her head and my dad started kicking her before she even reached the ground, I mananged to run to my room 'coz I was scared of my father.
When I reached my room, I locked the door and I tried not to panic, I thought I should give my mom a call but I remember she believes her husband more than us. This has been goin on for years and no one wants to believe us we tried escaping but my dad always gets what he wants and no one can stop him.
Flashback...
We came home as soon as my dad called the school and told the headmaster that there was an emergency at home, only to find out it was just one of his tricks to get his punching bags back home early. when we reached home we were welcomed by slaps from my dad and when we winced he got an opportunity to kick us both, we fell to the ground and then we started crying and my dad said ''stand you two ungreatful h**s'' we did as he said and got up, when we were about to run up the stairs he pulled us back and said ''where do you two think you are going''. he started punching us repeatedly, and he thought he was satisfied,he sat down and when lissa tried to stand up , my dad threw a whisky bottle at lissa and she fell unconscious on the spot. I tried to wake her up but my dad hit me with a baseball bat and I fainted too. we both woke up in lissa's bed and a headache came crushing down on me, I thought it was best to stay still, lissa woke up and she tried to lift herself up but she failed dismally and...end of flashback.
''MILLI'' my dad called out my name in anger, I slowly unlocked the door and when I was about the open , the door hit me in the face and I fell to the ground and my dad told me to stand up but I couldn't 'coz my head was spinning and I was feeling dizzy, so I decided to stay down. my dad left the room.
MELISSA'S POV
I woke up to a loud bang on my bedroom door, I went to open the door then , I started tearing up when I saw my bestfriend Nia, at that moment a hug was all i wanted, and she knew just what I wanted and hug me tightly, I huged he back like my life depended on it, like it was my life support. Nia pulled away from the hug and started to examine me and saw that I have new bruises, I couldn't help but cry when she asked me what happened, she tried to stop me from crying but my tears continued to flow like a river to the sea.
LATER ON THAT DAY .....
''Please have something to eat you can't keep on starving yourself like this, please eat'' , Nia tried to get me to eat something but I wasn't able to put anything in my stomach, all I could do is to think about what happened yesterday and I thought to myself maybe I wasn't destined to be happy, maybe suffering is my fate.
I looked at the clock that was hanging on the wall, it read 3:38pm ,i jumped from the couch and went to the kitchen to start cooking in cacse my dad was coming back today, I made his favourite dish and then I tidied the place and then I deicded to go to my room but when I was on the staircases I remebered that I haven't seen my sister since the last incident, so I decided to go to her room to check up on her, I knocked on the door for a couple of times but there was no answer, I entered the room and heard running water from her bathroom and then I called her name to make sure she's fine ''milli!!'', ''yes sis'' she replied from the bathroom, ''I'm going to sleep'' I told her then she said ''okay, is there any food'', ''ya, ya, food lover'' I said in a duh tone, then I went to my room and took a shower and then I slipped into my favourite baggy plain blue pants and my over-sized white t-shirt and set on my bed and before I knew , I passed out.
