Lexi
My eyes opened, my back was against the wall of my living room. My father was standing before me, bruises on his face and arms, many of them bleeding. He'd beaten me again. Ever since mother died of a fierce heart-attack, he'd strike me regularly. He turned and walked out of the front door. As soon as it slammed shut, I heard continuous footsteps running around on the landing, then trotting down the stairs. My sisters.
I had three, Emma who was eighteen, Cassidy who was nineteen and Faye who was twenty. I was fifteen, my name is Lexi. The girls rushed to my side and all of their pale blue eyes looked into mine. They had always looked after me throughout the years, I had a lot to owe for them. As they checked over me, their expressions became worried. "Oh god, look at you!" Cassidy exclaimed, she was a fully qualified Lawyer.
"All these scars, you could get a horrid infection if we don't take action," Faye said, she was a doctor. I felt weak, I could only move a little bit. All three of them lifted me up and rested me on the sofa. Faye got to work, using some kind of spray to de-infect my bruises, then bandaged them up. When she was finished, Emma bought me a plate of home-made cookies and a cup of tea. "We need to get her out of here, we leave for America in just four days, she'll be threatened." spoke Cassidy. "We could take her to Elm tree house, the care home, it's just down the road," remarked Emma. They sat and thought for a while and then Faye spoke up and said, "Yep, pack your things Lexi, you're going to Elm tree house!"
