“It would be coming up on a year since I lived under the roof of the Hucks. A year to date since I was under my father’s hand, and that year brought back that week from hell that no one knew I lived in. It was then when those eyes were over mine, watching so close, waiting to see the pain of what he could bring. He was there again. This time, my hands were tied and the rope was stretched across the room to the door handle to keep me from moving. “You are nothing, you little worthless kid....” His breath slapped me hard. It was so full of alcohol that my stomach churned violently. The food in his teeth made the hunger pains rocket through me. He had eaten and I was left there to nothing. Not a damn thing. I ran out of my stolen lunch and I couldn’t wait to get back to school to see Will and his hearty lunch bag. That bag was something I would never forget. With Thanksgiving coming up, there would be four whole days I would go without food for the break and I rationed my last one, trying to save what I had left.MoreLessRead More Read Less
