I went up to the attic to come up with a plan to help Jason get better. Well mainly to watch anime and read some manga, but all the same. Mom and dad are still fighting over nothing important. I just wish that they would shut the hell up and get along already. Tears began to fill my eyes and drip down my cheeks. I hate it when they fight over us, when they fight period. I wiped away my tears and sat underneath, to the right of, the dusty window, wondering what will become of my broken family. Will mom and dad split up? Will we move back to Krimmson City? I have so many questions, but who has the answers?

     When about a hour had pass and I was binge watching this bomb ass anime, I heard a banging sound, almost like if someone was knocking on something. When I looked up from my laptop I saw a shadow by some open boxes. So my curious ass paused the show and sat my laptop on the floor next to me and got up from the dirty spot I sat on. I dusted myself off and went to go check out what I saw. Next thing I know I'm seeing a red glow from a white cloth, that's covering something. As I went in for a closer look my mom calls me to bed. "Monica! Take your ass to bed now! You got school tomorrow." She yelled. I went back to my laptop and cleared my history, than I put it in it's special place, (in a hole in the wall). 

    "Good night mom, good night dad." I said to my parents as I was walking to my room. I whispered good night to Jason and he whispered good night back. I grabbed the grapes and water off the floor and placed it on my night stand that's next to my bed. I turned my fan on high and got under the covers. I stare at the ceiling and I start to worry more about how tomorrow will go. Thinking about so many things, I began to cry some more and only than that's when I realized that this isn't a dream. Like my dad ABUSES and threatens my mom. My big brother, who I'm supposed to look up to, does self harm almost every other night and our parents don't care, long as they get that check for him from the state, they don't give a shit what he does. Ughhh I'm getting a headache now. Time for bed, I guess.
