I crept out of my room and went over to the kitchen sink to wash my hands, I looked out the window, it was cloudy and it looked like it was going to rain, I closed my eyes still feeling the water flow around my hands, it gently began to trickle around my skin down to the sink below,
"Daddy! Daddy!" I called as I stumbled into the hallway of our old ranch home, Lloyd stood in the doorway.
"He ain't here, Maya." He said smiling, I sniffed, and looked at Lloyd, his elbow was against the wall, his legs were crossed, he looked at me happily.
"He said we could dance..." I said half crying, he let me down AGAIN! It made me sad I thought he said he wanted to dance... I lowered my head only to feel my brother raise my chin.
"I'll dance with ya!" Lloyd said.
"Lloyd?"
"Yeah..."
"Does dad hate me?"
My brother stumbled around the question, "Course not!"
"If he doesn't then why did he skip dancing with me?" I cried.
"Well... he was busy..." My brother said in his defense.
"No he is evil!"
"No he's not!"
"Yes he is! He told us what happened with the mean snake! It cursed him! His skin is pale and his eyes are red! He is EVIL!" I shouted.
My brother stood there, in front of me, sad... his eye's were down he didn't make eye contact... he knew I was right. "Th-the snake... it wasn't his fault... you know that..."
I looked down, "The Great Devourer..."
"Yeah that snake..." he looked down.
"He hates me... he likes you..." I cried silently.
"No he doesn't... he loves you..." Lloyd lied, I knew he was lying...
"NO HE DOESN'T!" I shouted... "YOUR NOT ON THE RECEIVING END YOU DON'T KNOW!" My tears fell quickly and there were lots of them, I stormed into my room, I heard Lloyd call out to me, I sat on my bed, "I can never be excepted... I was cursed just like he was and it wasn't my fault!" I opened my hands and swirling dark pulses came from no where, it was small but it gave all who looked at it uneasy except me... the pulses swirled, making beautiful patterns it turned crooked in its desire, it lightly floated above my hand, it wasn't that thick it looked like a cluster of black, dark blue, and deep purple sparkles... I clenched my hand into a fist making it disappear in a puff of deep colored sparkles... I had ADHD, and I was half Demon... no one will ever understand who I am, I will never be excepted...
I was awoken from my flashback by a boom of thunder, no rain yet... all my senses awoke, I was able to feel the water again, I smell the burner crisping the burnt cheese that was dried on it...
I turned off the water and grabbed some things from the fridge and threw it together, I adjusted the temperature of the burner, and grabbed a spatula and began browning the beef...
"NO! Don't make me!" I said running from the kitchen.
"GET BACK HERE, KID!" He said as he ran for me, I took a turn down the hallway and ran as fast as I could up the stairs, I couldn't breath when I made it to the top, I sprinted down the hall to my bedroom, I pressed myself up against my door, I cried loudly hoping that someone would hear.
I heard heavy foot steps come up the stairs as soon as the person chasing me made contact with my door I fell backward with my Dad on top of me, I cried out in pain, my dad swore at me left and right,
"Mommy!" I cried, I was so afraid, I was helpless, until I remembered my powers my demon curse... it was the only way... I closed my eyes and concentrated, even though it was hard, I opened my eyes on which were glowing, I felt dark wings form on my back, they looked like an angel's wings except, they were black and shiny, like a raven's wings, the irises in my eye's glowed red as my bright blue eyes went to a shade of red...
I lifted my hands to my dad's chest and began creating pulses of dark energy into his abdomen, he cried out in pain rolling to his side, he cussed at me as he arose, my energy surge had died and my wings were gone... I was helpless once more... he rose his hand and for the first time ever he struck me.
BEEP BEEP BEEP! The smoke alarm sounded, I came to my senses and realized I had burned the meat, I locked the smoke alarm in the closet and threw the meat out, and started another batch.
"Hello? May?" My father said not long after I finished making dinner, he turned the corner to see me standing there as frail as usual... "Hey honey bun! What did you make?"
I didn't smile I just looked at him, "C-Cheese burger pie..."
"Mmm! Sounds good!" He said kissing me on the fore head.
I dished it up and sat at the table handing my father the other plate, he quickly dug in as I just stared at it like it wasn't food, it was like I don't know... I was sick to stomach after reliving two moments of my past, to never remember a happy time with my family, not one... there was always hitting, swearing... betraying... as my dad finished up, I washed the dishes silently.
"Ima headn' back down, you comin'?" He said with a chipper smile.
"Y-yeah..." I dropped what I was doing and went down the stairs to the Bay, I sat on my creeper and rolled under one of the cars, I began working on a short task because I knew I would have to work on 'Jay's Van'.
I quickly wrenched in the fuel pipe and finished on the 'Junker' as I called it, I moved me creeper over to Jay's SUV, I heard a muffled conversation between my father and I think that Jay guy, they entered the back, I looked up, Jay, Kai, Zane, Cole, and some girl I have never seen before, she had dark brown hair which went pretty far down her back, she was fairly short, her eye's were emerald green, and she was smiling and laughing with me father.
I looked over to see... oh gosh... Lloyd... I quickly got up and went up stairs, before I left I noticed my brother whisper something to the dark haired girl... I wondered what... I sat on the could in the living room, '7:00' the clock read, "What were those bozos doing picking up a car at 7?" I thought, my thoughts were interrupted by a very large BOOM, after that large noise followed the pitter patter of rain, I sighed and leaned back into the couch, I switched on the TV and listened to what ever it was babbling about,
'Do you wish you had someone in your life?' The man on the screen said.
"No..." I thought.
'Are closed to the idea of a significant other?' The man asked.
"Yes!" I thought, this was annoying...
'Do you NEED that special someone to sweep you off your feet?' The man was wearing a collared shirt with a logo on the front he also had a mullet, with some stubble on his chin.
"No I need no one..." I thought, but then I thought if Lloyd, the call I made... 'I... want... I... need...' I remember myself saying before I hung up, "What do I need...?" I asked myself.
'If you answered YES then you should try our dating site!' The mullet man said.
I frowned at the thought of me with someone... "I wonder what a man I would have?" I thought entertaining the mullet man's question, I shook my head, as I flipped the channel.
It must have been a few hours because I was interrupted from my TV time, by my father declaring he was home, "Honey bun!?" He called.
"O-over here!" I called back, he smiled at me.
"Ima goin' to bed night baby child!" He said to me, I heard him mumble "The day was to long..." I had to agree...
I went to my room, I stripped down and changed into my PJ's, I snuggled into my warm end, I closed my eyes, the room was silent other than the rain: I heard the rain hit the window, it became a tune, I listened until I fell asleep...
