As I lay here in the cold air, I think about all the good and bad events that has happened in my life. As I pull my covers up to try to get warm, I remember being so scared and lost the day my life changes. I did not what was going to happen. My parents would yell if I was too loud. They never told me she loved me like other kids said their mommy’s and daddy’s did. My daddy was never around and when he was home he was always yelling and very clumsy. Sometimes when I was bad they hit me; it hurt but I didn’t cry. They would get mad if I cried. I went to school with a lot of bruises. I didn’t have a lot of friends. School was hard but started getting better. This new girl had moved to school and wanted to be my friend. I didn’t know how to …show more content…
They must have went to the store. I waited for a long times but no one came. It was getting very dark outside and I was really sure what to do I was sitting on the couch trying my homework given to us that day when there was a loud knock at the door. My parents never knocked on the door or had guess over. I walked slowly to the door. I was sure if I should open it or not. They knocked again but it was even louder. I got to the door and reached for the knob. I turned it slowly getting ready to run if it was my daddy or mommy coming to hurt me again. I opened the door to see a very tall man smiling at me. He was in a uniform. He was very nice as he ask me so many questions. He told me he was here to take me somewhere safe and fun. I was very scared. I didn’t want my parents to get mad at me if I left. He told me they were not going to hurt me anymore. I was going to be ok and I was going to get a new family who loved and cared for me. He and another man helped me get what little stuff I had together and I went with them. We went to this very big place with a lot of people wearing the same uniform. They were all very nice. There was a lady there that gave me food and new clothes. She made me take a bath, and even helped me brush my hair out. I reallt liked her after I knew she wasn’t going to hurt me. She told me everything was going to be ok and that I was going to be in a better place from now on. It was scary staying the night …show more content…
Where were my parents? When I had to go back home what would my parents do to me. we pulled up in front of this very big house. It was white and very neat looking. The man helped me get my things and the lady held my hand as we walked to the front door. They stopped and bent down beside me, they told me that they were so glad I wanted to come with them. They told me they had a little girl my age that couldn’t wait to meet me. I was so nerves as we walked in the door. The lady yelled up the stairs for the little girl to come down and meet me. She yelled back “coming mommy”. As she ran down the hall to the steps a down them I began to see who she was. The little girl of the family was my best friend from school. I was so happy to see her. We hugged each other, as she told me she was too happy that her parents choose me as her new sister. They showed me to my room. It was so big. We got to play for a little while before it was time for bed. My new parents came to tuck me in. I wasn’t use to someone telling me goodnight. They knelt beside my bed a prayed for me. They thanked God for putting me and their live, after they kissed me on the head and left the room. Now here I am laying in a room all alone looking back on what had happened all in one week. I couldn’t believe it. I was finally getting a happy ending. I lay my head down on my pillow and thank God for what he has given me as I go to
It was a normal sunny day. Samantha was abandoned by the parents at age 15. Samantha woke up knowing that she was not alone in her house. She felt this type of presence with her in her room. She gets a phone call from her friends she had met the day before.
Then I look over and see my dad he is a soldier too. He was screaming at my neighbors to keep on digging a hole, I thought it was quite strange. Then we got assigned to this bunk. It was so tiny and we had to fit 8 people in it. It was nearly 10 o'clock which is bed time for me.
They assured us it was nothing we did, but completely their own choice. I stood next to my brother, who had tears streaming down his face. I felt like I had to stay strong for my brother's sake, so I could reassure him that everything would be okay. But deep down I was hurting just like he was. After meeting in the kitchen, my brother and I went to our rooms.
-I did it because I saw no alternative, and I would have a in happy life and sleepless night if I refused, also because they were such a good friends and I loved them Did your husband agree with you of helping the family? -He was full agree, he even helped me to visit them and give them supplies. Did anyone ever suspected that you were hiding people? -No one, not even my parents, I always bought the food at different stores all over the place, not buying everything at the same place calories

When I get to my bus stop I like all my parents and they come pick me up but when they before they do that they yell at me like every other day when I get to school I go straight to the band room to drop off my bass clarinet.
But, when my father finds out that we 're leaving for New York, he decided to come with us. He tried to do the same here with my mother, but my brothers did not let him, they confronted him. That’s when everything started changing with him. It was too late for us, the damage was already done. I hold anger, I was afraid to communicate with others, low self-esteem, and I couldn’t concentrate in school.
It was uncomfortable for me to be around my classmates, but everyone in the class seems to be nice to me because I was the new kid. They didn’t have problems with me and I didn’t have problems with them. As time goes on, I began to feel
All I wanted was for the pricks to stop. Finally that inescapable darkness feeling overtook me. This time I welcomed it like a warm blanket that would keep me safe from all the pain. As I lay there in the hospital bed inert and mute, my mom stayed by my side. My grandma had to pry her hands from the side of my bed just to get her to go check on Kaden.
Will’s and Michael’s disappointed. My siblings’ unsure and some angry. They wanted to fight. They wanted to defend their home and our dad. But I stopped them.
My eyes turn into dark clouds, and it was about to storm. Somewhere in the house I could hear Dad yell, “Get into the shower!” Short and sweet, loud and firm. Like he was looking for me. I could hear him from all the way upstairs, the long, long stairs.
I was putting my Halloween costume on when I heard something moving in my closet. I turn to the closet door half dressed with a curious look on my face. In my mind, it being Halloween, I thought I was just hearing things or my little brother was playing a prank on me. I walk out the door to my room, down the stairs and as I was about to walk out the front door my father caught me, “Where are you going?” he asked “Out, it’s
They treated me like a human and not just a kid. Due to this I realised that they are human to and deserved a life of love even if that wasn’t with each other. Most importantly they have shown me that even though things don’t always work out the way they are planned to, that doesn’t mean you can’t create a great life for your
All of a sudden, I heard a huge bang and then a scream from a woman. My nerves jumped up a little bit, and I started to have some second thoughts about going in. However, it was too late, and we were already in. The worker showed my dad, my brother, and I, a long, narrow hallway we were supposed to follow.
I woke up terrified , those nightmares they keep happening. I was thinking to myself saying why haven't they went away. But suddenly my thoughts were disturbed by the yelling of my sister. I got out of bed and went down stairs where i had seen my sister jill making breakfast , she turned around and saw me , then she asked “ nightmares again ”. I answered “ yes ”.
Surviving in High School “The journey doesn’t start at the beginning, begins at the end.” School is one of the most memorable moments you will experience in your life, are those moments when you find a second family in your life called “classmates”, they start being strangers to classmates, classmates to friends and friends to brothers and sisters, you spent every single day of your life for more or less 2 years of your life that you start to know them more than anybody. I study in Colegio De La Salle in Panama City, Panama. My years in De La Salle are priceless, because it’s the place where I grew up as a student and the most importan as an Human being. During my time in De La Salle I found “Ma Squad” that’s how we call our group back in Panama, where we experience and pass so many things together.
