Prologue

A stranger in my own home; all I wanted was to be left alone.

Disputes, anger and physical abuse; all they wanted was to leave me confused.

The last hit was the one to make me leave it all behind, even if it was just meant to be for a little while.

Getting away made me think that everything would be okay, yet it only made me realise I should have stayed that day.

Running, hiding and fighting for our lives; we need to be the ones who survive.
