Leaving Me

1

(Madison's POV)
I laid in the basement and stared at the ceiling for a brief moment taking in where my life has brought me, I stay in the basement and sleep on a towel staining blankly in the dark , thinking how I got here and why am I here my thoughts we're ripped out of my head when My dad came wobbling down the stairs with his usual beer bottle in his hand and smashes it on the ground and walks up to me and grabs me by the neck in does the chains and throws me up toward the stairs and I start to walk up the stairs I grab my work clothes and walk in the bathroom

Where the fuck do you think your going I hear my drunken father say

T-to work I have to go in early today I say as calm as possible so he wouldn't leave another bruise on my face or I would get questions at work like "omg what happened to you" " Did you have a hang over" " are you getting abused" people don't know how to mind their damn business

You better be back by 5 or you know what will happen he says with a slur at the end as he walks into the living room sitting in his recliner looking at a blank screen  I walk inside the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror and see that my once were sparkling blue eyes are now a dark blue and almost brown like it's lost its color my once was light brown hair is now a dark brown, I turn on the water to the shower and wait for it to get warm and start to get in the shower when I look in the mirror one last time I can see all the bruises that I have, one above my collar bone, another on my stomach, a small scar on my lip but is hardly noticeable, a lot of bruises on my back, my eyes start to water but I don't dare start to cry, I get in the shower and feel the warm water come in contact with my skin leaving chills to go down my body, I look down at my thighs I see cut marks all along each side and some cuts on my wrist and start to cry, I sit on the bottom of the tub and let it out things going through my mind the usual Im not good enough for this world, no one is ever going to love me , no one cares about me, I just have to except the fact that no one is going to save me

I just decided to get out and put my work clothes on just black leggings and a blue collared shirt that had Mack's Coffee shop written on it with my name tag on it and the shirt was like a crop top that's what I liked about it, I wore my hair down and just brushed through it my hair only goes down to the mid section of my back and grab my blue converse and walk out the house, I don't have a phone because i would call the cops which their is no point since my dad is a cop, I can't have a car because I'd run away no point because I have no "money" to get gas my money goes to my father to buy more beer or to go to the strip club

I walk down to the bus stop and wait for it to arrive, I wait for about 5 mins and get on only paying the bus driver 8$ to go 20 mins from home, I get off the bus and walk across the street to the coffee shop, I walk inside and check in and start to take orders

(4 hours later)
I still have 3 hours left and their has barely been any people in the shop so I just start organizing the cups and go and take the trash out back and as I'm walking back I see a boy sitting behind the shop with a beer bottle in his hand and he's just staring into space, I would do something but I don't feel like getting hit again then he starts mumbling something it almost sounds like " it's all my fault", I finally grow some balls and walk over to him

Hey are you ok?

It's all my fault it's all my fault

Are you ok I say this time putting my hand on his shoulder, he snapped out of space

Who the fuck are you?

A person that saw you spaced out and started talking to yourself

Yeah well mind your own fucking business I'm fine

Are you though

No but that's none of your business like I said 

Yeah your right I'm sorry I'll leave you and your drinking problem alone I said and walked inside

What a dick I thought

(3 hours later)

I walk outside and thankfully he's gone I make my way to the bus and pay the 8$ to get home, I walk to my seat and just look out the window and see all the people walking the streets and a little girl holding her dads hand swinging her over the cracks between the side walk, I start to tear up but immediately stop myself from crying but I don't want to draw attention to myself I look at the time on the clock and it's 4:50 and I start to panic after what my dad told me so I got out of my seat and opened the bus doors and sprinted in the street having 10 minutes to get home, I had two blocks to go and I ran really fast, if I ever went to high school I would join the track team but I never went to school but I'm not that stupid either, I was still running and got their at 4:59 with my dad waiting at the door with a belt

Your late

I made it at 4:59

Are you getting smart with me

No I ju-

(Trigger Warning)
He grabs me by my hair and drags me by the hair and throws me down the stairs to the basement I try to crawl away but he grabs me by my feet and pulls me by a corner and hand cuffs me to a metal pole

This is what you get when you disobey me
He says and hits me with the spiky belt across the face and again on my back, again and again, then punches me once in the face and leaves me their all night
I sit their for a few moments just staring at the ceiling and just start to cry, not because it hurt but because I can't take it anymore
