Trapped
By: Kayla Barber
Beginning
"One night I was with my younger sister and my mom, we were all playing around; playing dress up, having a great time till my mother’s phone went off. She answered the phone, smiling and laughing at whoever was on the phone....."
Never be the Same
".......I had just walked in from school, they took me to the living room to watch wrestling. No one was home. The boys were learning all the new moves they had been watching on the TV, so they wanted to try the new moves....."
Did I get out?
"....when I was at school my dad drove a whole hour and a half, and drove to my school, and took me somewhere safe, and since then I couldn’t ever be more grateful for my dad....."
Part from the Memoir
The boys were trying to learn all the new moves they had been watching on the TV, so they wanted to try the new moves on my sister and me. Moves like putting me in a head lock and punching me over and over again, throwing me over their shoulders, into all the tables and chairs. Let’s just say I got pretty hurt during the whole time I was there. They even put an electric drill up to my arm, accident or not, I was never sure, and pushed the button, leaving a small gash on my arm which has gotten a lot better.
How did I overcome it?
......But I overcame the whole problem, when I was at school my dad drove a whole hour and a half, and drove to my school, and took me somewhere safe, and since then I couldn’t ever be more grateful for my dad......
How can I help others going through this...
For everyone that has ever, or is now going through it, it gets better, at the time you feel worthless, but keep fighting. You have people that love you and are here for you if you need help. I feel so much better now that I have overcame that. I'm now older, and more stronger than I was then. It made me stronger.
