It is always the same.

The same, scathing comments about how I am no good. About how I am the worst person to grace this earth. About how I am nothing but a liar.

I could go on.

More and more insults. Everyday, there are more and more. Everyday, there is something new that I did wrong.

And everyday, I just sit there and take it.

Tonight though, it was different.

Tonight, she backed me into a corner, towering over me and yelled. And screamed. And bitched.

About everything. How I was born. How I was turning out more and more like my brother. How everything that comes from my mouth is a lie. Bad words flew, everywhere, piling around me. And then insults on top of them.

And then there was a slap. Hard and harsh, I had to put ice on it for a few minutes, and then words I've never heard before.

"You are inhuman, the most inhuman creature I've ever met."

They stung. Cold. Like ice. Usually, I ignore the insults, but this one hit me hard. I ducked and ran around her and then holed myself in my room. She leaves me be, thank god. But those words...

Inhuman.

Am I really? Isn't she the inhuman one?

The one who attacks me? The one who chases and corners me, to where I can't get out?

Never before... had she ever seemed that... serious.

It terrifies me.

Tonight, I seriously thought that I was going to die.
