October 21st 2010
Selena's mocha orbs scanned the hallway as she stepped into the bathroom closing the door behind her with a sigh. This secret was the hardest one she'd ever kept. She made her way over to the toilet to do what she'd been doing everyday for what seemed like years but was actually only about a year, ever since that dreaded day. Her father was right to say those things to her. She was nothing. Absolutely nothing.
She pulled her hair back with one hand and pressed her slim finger against the flesh of the back of her throat letting her breakfest fall into the porcealin bowl. She stood up and looked in the mirror with disgust. "He was right." she whispered to her reflection before continuing her morning rituals with a quick warm shower.
As the warm water pelted down on her pale skin she let a whimper that shook her small thin frame. Why her?

April 13th 2003;
Selena closed her eyes pulling her knees up under her chin as the screams echoed up the stairs. Swears, hate, pain. Those words only begun to describe the hell she lived day after day. Her mother was a good woman but had a serious problem with drinking. Almost everyday when she came home from school she'd find her mother passed out in bed with a hangover.
Her father, he was much more complicated than that. He did many things. Alcohal, drugs, you name it, he probably did it.
Her parents fought more than most. The only reason they stayed together at all was because her mother needed him to pay bills being as she didn't have a job of her own and because her father wouldn't allow it. He seemed to work harder at making them all miserable than his own job. He was a construction worker.
On this day though things were worse than usual. Her father had come home drunk as well as high and found her mother asleep before Selena had time to wake her. So as per usual he had a fit. Her mother had sent her upstairs before any real damage was done but it didn't change the fact that she could hear the whole fight from her room.
"That daughter of yours is nothing but a tramp!" he yelled from the bottom of the steps.
"She's 11 years old! And she's your daughter too Steven." she spat back at him. It sounded like she was backed against the wall.
"Oh? And how do I know that Lydia? For all I know she could be any man in this town's daughter."
She heard her mother's hand collide with his cheek. It made such a terrible sound that it made her stomach clench. There was a load bang and a scream of pain. Selena squeezed her eyes closed to block out what she imagined was going on just downstairs.
"Yeah. That's what I thought." he scoffed. The young girl sighed. It must be over She decided openning the door to go check on her mother. She gulped looking up at the sickening man who unfortunately was her father looking mad as ever.
"Eavesdropping were we?" He grabbed hold of her arm pulling her behind him down the stairs to the kitchen. Her mother was laying on the floor clutching onto her arm which was bleeding at a fast rate. When her mother caught sight of her, her eyes widened in fear.
"Steven-" she tried in a weak voice to reason with him but he just scowled at her.
"This daughter of yours," he slurred disgustingly pointing towards his daughter. "was listening to our conversation."
Her mother sweared in pain and stood up right still holding tight to her arm. "Let her go."
He glared at her with hate evident in his dark brown eyes. It almost made her gasp at how much was actually there. She never knew it was possible to have that much hate inside of them. "What does it matter to you? She's nothing. Just a worthless whore." He stepped foward grabbing onto her mother's hurt arm, making her yell out in pain. The same scream that now echoed through her memory everyday.
Selena felt tears begin to fall down her thin cheeks. Her father had a tight grip on her, digging his dirty nails into her skin in a way that would have made her yell out in pain at any other time. But right now it was her father's harsh and brutal words that seared her the most. He pushed her sending her flying down to the ground her mother had previously occupied.
