I was unsure if I had even opened my eyes, it was still dark. perhaps I had gone blind.

I was laying on a hard madras. and this room stank of death. like some sort of corpse was laying somewhere. oh god what if there were a dead body in here.

I shut my eyes back tightly shut.

my hands fumbled in the dark as I stood up forcing the tears away. I quickly found a door handle jerking it down finding the door locked. I grew frantic. oh god what if they had left me here to die.

''hallo?! someone please help ! '' I cried out banging on the door. there were no response. the room was really dark. scary dark. not like the attic at home though.

yet it made me relive those times, my mother's loud voice chasing me up on that attract leaving me there for days. I hated that attic. this room made my mother's voice return.

it boomed off the walls filling the silence.

my cries became louder, and I grew more frantic. grandads pale body laid before me in the dark. like a ghost and I could hear my father tell us to wipe our tears, and I could feel the tight almost painful grip my mother had on my shoulder.

oh god.

the attic.

my grandfather.

fathers scolding.

mothers yelling.

my brothers bullying.

my sister leaving.

mothers' tight hand on my shoulder.

oh, dear god.

someone save me now. I fell. I fell but my body never hit the ground. it should've. I should've fallen all the way to hell. I would've preferred to sink down into the ground and down to the underworld if it meant I would be anywhere but here.
