"Get out of my house." My mom spat casting me onto the front porch. Just a few minutes alone with my older sister and she was throwing me out?
"What did I do? Where am I going to go?" I asked steadying my balance. My breath was haggard as I struggled to fight against my raging mother, whatever I had to say was to none of her concern she just wanted me gone.
"You think I wasn't gonna find out about you losing your virginity to a 24-year-old man?! You're fucking 12 years old!" She practically screamed into the neighborhood. I hadn't the slightest idea what she was talking about, I haven't even had the talk yet let alone had sex. Through all of her ruckus I noticed Natana standing there with a blank look on her face. Was she not going to defend me? The sister whom I loved so dearly, the one I had tea parties with and played make-believe with...
"I did not!" I shouted louder than I had anticipated.
"Natana tell her what you told me." My mom looked back. Natanas eyes couldn't even meet mine as she spoke her lie.
"I heard you talking to your friend walking home from school. You were talking about how good it felt how you were gonna do it again."
My mouth had almost dropped to think she would lie like this, yeah we may have told small lies about who ate the last cookie but to say something so racking was insane!
"You really are a disgrace Natalia, you can't stay here." Mom finalized shutting the door behind her. She wasn't going to let me fight for the truth, she believed my sister with every fiber her being. I pleaded for hours to the door hoping that maybe she could hear me but I got no response, she had truly abandoned me, Natalia Murdock sister to Natana Murdock and daughter to Rachel Murdock, but in truth I wasn't even a Murdock anymore I was just Natalia. I stayed on the front porch for days but being ignored constantly, finally I gave in to reality. This was no longer my family.
I went to the only other place I was welcome to without having to go into the system, Sebrina's house, my best friend. Sebrina's mom understood everything and agreed immediately to take me in, she took my mom to court and got all parental rights regarding me transferred to her. In turn she was the best mother one could ever ask for and took care of me for the remaining eight years of my life. And when she sent Sabrina and I out into the real world she paid in full for a college tuition and sent us to the best college in state resulting in the two of us getting a bachelors degree. But the time in between the start of college and the end, all I could think about was sex. It was like a hobby of mine, while passing classes I would end up having sex every night.
