Chapter One

227 Words
Kylah's POV Another day, another early morning beating which meant more bruising to hide from the faculty and students at school. I am rudely awoken by my father coming in and pouring a bucket of ice-cold water all over me, my bed, and my other surroundings. I gasped and immediately started to shiver as I was now cold. My father didn't utter a word to me as he left my room. I knew at that point I needed to hurry and shower, one to get warm, and two because of school, and then I needed to go make breakfast and clean the kitchen before leaving for school. I get in the shower, wash my hair, and tenderly and gently wash my body, as I have fresh bruising all over from the beating I received last night. Why was I beaten? I never know anymore. He doesn't need a reason, he's just going to do it. I get out of the shower and dry myself off. I don't do anything special with my hair and don't feel like applying make-up, so I don't. I made my way downstairs to the kitchen and got a snarl and an ugly glare from my brother. I flip him the bird and tell him the screw off, and go about making breakfast, eating, followed by cleaning the kitchen and leaving for school.
