Malaika POV:
Sitting on the floor with the glass door closed behind me, flinching every time I heard my mother scream out of pain, my dad tortured us every day, to save myself from this devil my mom locked me up when it was the time for the devil to come home. My mom and dad had love marriage but of this is what love marriage looks like I am not ever loving a man who will not even bother to harm his love, it's cruel, it's a prison, it's heartbreaking, it's.... While I was talking to myself I realized there was deep drop silent, no more scream no sob's neither noise *banging the door unstoppably* here he is! Where is my mother! What did he do! Why can't I hear her! Panicking while taking my steps back from the banging door! And the door broke, I screamed " don't kill me please!!!! I beg you!!!" While covering my eyes and sobbing it's then I heard a soft tone " Mili" it was my mother I opened my eyes in a instant and hugged her she was covered in blood I was terrified " mama you are hurt! You are bleeding! Lemme help you" I was about to run and get the fast aid kit from the drawer but she held me back " mama please you need help" she called me "Mili" I wasn't listening and was about to get when she screamed "Mili! Listen to me! Pack your bags we are leaving!" She said in one go " but mama you are bleeding" with tears in her eyes " it's not my blood....." with my eyes widened looking at hers gave her signal to spill what she needed to say "it's your dad's" I was in a panic " YOU DID WHAT MAMA! YOU KILLED HIM! MAMA YOU CAN GO TO JAIL! WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT YOU?! AN....." she covered my mouth and was trying to console me " Mili I defended myself and I didn't kill your father he is alive but just unconscious" I took a breath inside but my mom started packing like a crazy woman and I knew why, probably when my dad will gain consciousness again he will murder both mother and daughter my dad hates women he thinks it makes man go weak and lose manliness strength and power, suddenly my mom grabbed my hand forcing me down the stairs letting me in the cab ready to go, we left. On our way to Vegas my mom suddenly said.. " Mili, baby you are not coming with me, I know you can't stay without me but if your father finds out at some cost where am i he will kill us both, he used to have trackers on my clothes so it's for own best that you move to Los Angeles, I've bought a fancy house there you don't need to worry about anything I have taken care of everything Mili" she was going on and on but I was lost in my thoughts, living without my mom? In a whole new place? All by myself ?! NoNoNo not happening, " Mili?" Suddenly I came out of my thoughts " mom I'm ready to die but not ready to leave without you" she sighed, I fell asleep and I thought she was convinced only to wake up in a fancy bedroom with a banner ' Welcome to LA'
