HISTORY:
well, lets see… where to start. For the first half of her childhood (from birth- about 6 or 7) her father was an emotionally and physically abusive drunk, though because she was so young, and blocked most of it out, she can’t remember most of that time in her life, and she doesn’t feel like trying to. When she was 9 her father’s alcohol and drug addiction cost them their house, and they had to move into a cramped house, made for a family of maybe 4, when there were 8 in their family. Her father continued to drink though he became lazy, and only emotionally abused his family. Time passed, her life was pretty simple, she hung out with her siblings, and she had a normal life, form what people could see. She played in the yard, went swimming, kid things. She was a very happy child, and innocent, sweet, and kind to everything, or at least tried to be.
She’s 14 now, and she’s got her first job, She works at a local ice cream shop, and she eats more ice cream than she should. She’s becoming depressed cause she sees the world more clearly now, and how it is, and how it works, her innocence is slowly passing, but she still tries to be kind, and she hides her fears, and her unhappiness as to not worry her family. She quits her job at the end of the summer, shes not as skinny as she used to be, not unhealthy, but she’s gained weight, though she doesn’t care, not at the moment. Life sucks, but she finds whatever she can to be happy, she’s depressed, yet she’s the happiest person anyone knows. It’s a good thing she knows how to fake a smile. Though faking laugh is harder, so those were real.
Time passes, she’s 15 now, and she’s got her second job, she works at a grocery store now, and there is a boy she has a crush on, very tall, taller than her, so few boys are taller than her at her age. She gaining weight again though, because food eases her boredom with the life she has, and she has the money to buy whatever…. Plus she works in a grocery store… so much food; it makes her hungry all the time. She flirts with the boy, but nothing special ever happens, she slowly moved on. Half a year passes and its 2 weeks before her 16th birthday, she puts her two weeks’ notice in, and her last day is the day before her birthday, she tells a friend at work that it was the best birthday present ever. She hated it there.
Time passes again, she’s had a few crushes, never dated, still sad, but happy… bipolar maybe? It’s the summer, and she’s pretty happy, her dads going through alcohol treatment, and she thinks she might be proud of him. They say things that needed to be said, and she’s starting to like how her life is going. He finishes treatment, and then announces that her parents are getting a divorce, most kids would be upset, but this is good news to her. Her parents never really loved each other, so it was good for them. Her parents are divorced, and she has the best two weeks she’s ever had, her mom is being a mom, she’s smiled for real, and cried form happiness. Two weeks pass. Her moms meds run out, cause she lost medical in the divorce.. she goes crazy… doctors say she has something called schizo.. something… and she’s back to being depressed, though never this bad before, she has no one to talk to, and she gets pushed over the edge near the end of September, she can’t handle it, she can’t sleep, and she can’t think… she used a nail clipper first, clipping and scratching at the skin at her wrist, it barely does anything and she sighs, retreating into the bathroom to try and cry again, she hasn’t cried in months… it was her only release and now it’s gone… she sees a blue scissors, and decides to use that, its dull, but sharp enough to make her bleed a little. She runs it over her wrist multiple times, till there is a dark red line across her wrist, though its barely anything, it’s enough for now. She frowns afterwards, thinking… what have I done.. She does this 3 more times by the end of the week. Its mid October now, and she hasn’t done it in a few weeks. She stops eating to, and by the end of the month she’s lost 20 pounds. She’s now 150lbs.
she meets a guy named Ben, same as her dads, but he’s funny, nice, older, so she figures she’ll have a crush, but never anything more. They become friends, and she talks with him about her problems, she’s feeling better than she has in a while, though still depressed. He notices the scares on her wrist, and she tells him about them, he shows her his. They have more in common than she thought. She tells him she won’t ever do it again, but in the back iof her mind she knows she’s lying, because she does it again a few days later, he gets upset with her when he finds out, and she keeps doing it anyways. They like each other, as more than friends, flirting, laughing, she spends most of her time with him. Its oct. 30th and he seems upset, she sits with him on the staircase, and she tells him she did it again, and shows him the cuts on her leg. He confiscates her scissors, and then asks what she’s thinking, she says nothing, and he later tells her that when he asked, he wanted her to say that she wanted him to kiss her. They hang out all day the next day, Halloween, its late that night and they are walking down a hallway with a friend, he starts to push her playfully, and she ended up against the wall, he asks if she will say no, and she whispers no. he kisses her, and she’s lost, in a good way, she’s never been kissed before, and she doesn’t know what to do, but she smiles, and the moment is over, she smiles, blushing, and giggles a little, they continue walking, and their friend tells her to say something after time has passed, and she says she doesn’t know what to say. They go to a party, they play drinking games, though she doesn’t drink. At some point Ben and her go to the bathroom, its dark and they can’t see anything, but he puts his hands on her waist, and she smiles a bit, her heart is racing, and they kiss again… more than kiss. They eventually leave the party, and drop of their friend. They go back to his place, and lay down on his bed, he kisses her again, and she’s so nervous. Eventually the night ends. He drops her off, and she goes to sleep, its almost 6 am.
A few weeks pass, it’s the 7th of November, and they are sitting in a car together, he asks her if she wants to be his girlfriend, she says yes. she’s the happiest she has been in years, and she get back in touch with god, praying to him, asking him to make those she loves happy, and hopes they find what she needs. She believes god had sent this wonderful man to her, to help her find her way again. his brother came to live with him, he’s a year older than her, and they soon become friends.
Time passes, her moms back, her dad hasn’t seen her in ages, and she’s starting to feel as if life is better, she had cut a few more times since they got together, each time he got upset, why didn’t she stop? Its feb 19th and he finds out she’s done it again. hes pissed, he tells her if she ever does it again, its over between them.
Time passes, shes very happy, she happy with him and shes happy with her life, but only for a moment. He seems distant now, and she tries to talk, but he barely answers, she feels they are falling apart, and cries herself to sleep tonight. The next day she tries to talk to him… they talk, fight… argue, and he tells her he doesn’t want her anymore, that he cant be with someone right now, she feels her heart breaking, and she cries more than she has in even years… she feels like she needs him there. And shes panicking, she doesn’t know what to do… she talks to him, about how shes feeling, its good for her she needed to talk things out. His brother gives her a hug, and she leaves, a few days pass. They talk again, and she tries to be friends, its so hard on her, to see him, but she holds back all her tears till he cant see her, he doesn’t want him to see her cry. She makes a decision, she needs to ignore him, delete him from her life as much as possible till she can be around him without crying. He tries to contact her, she ignores, she cant talk to him… a few days pass, and he sends her a voicemail… hearing his voice… it sounds so… sad? she thinks, and eventually goes to see him, she tells him whats on her mind. Days go by and they are friends, she can be around him without crying, though his drinking habit makes her upset, he confuses her, frustrates her… he talks to her outside a few days later, she apologizes for ignoring him, he says don’t be, I shouldn’t have left. Im surprised, and confused, why does he think he shouldn’t have left?
(And that’s where shes left off in her life now… also, sorry if any of that’s confusing… and sorry if my grammar, or writing skills aren’t the best..)
