Mirabelle Alexandra Romano, a 17-year old girl who is being abused by her stepfather after her also abusive mother dies since she was 3 years old. Getting bullied in everyday life and getting beaten at home her life could not get any worse. But sud...
I woke up the next day from another nightmare. I looked at the clock and saw that it's 5:00 in the morning.
I sighed and went to get up but winced when I felt a sharp pain in my ribs. They're broken and it's not exactly fun to walk around with broken bones and heavily bruised ones.
I took a couple deep breaths and sat up very, very slowly. I stood up with the help of the bed and started making my way to the bathroom also using the wall as support.
I turned on the lights and stepped in-front of the mirror. I looked at my reflection and felt tears well up in my eyes.
Two purple bruises on my face, a hand print on my neck, my arms were littered with bruises and cuts, my whole body is.
My torso was a different shade of black, blue, purple, green and yellow, in final words, like a rainbow. My back was filled with whip marks and carved words.
A sob broke out of me. I look absolutely horrendous. I look repulsive. Tears kept strolling down my face at the state I was in.
My body looked like a canvas which was covered with different colors of paint.
My breaths were coming out uneven. My chest rising and falling at a rapid pace. My vision blurred as more fresh tears travelled down my face.
I'm skinny but with the right curves in the right places. My face looks pale and my blue-green eyes are dull and lifeless, they look dead.
I didn't want to look at my reflection anymore so I went to take a relaxing shower. I stepped under the cold water and started washing my hair in coconut shampoo. Then I conditioned it in coconut conditioner. I used vanilla body wash and soon enough I finished.
I stepped out and wrapped a soft towel gently around myself. I dried myself and put on my underwear.
I brushed my teeth and my wet hair. I then did my skincare routine and started working on covering the bruises that are visible.
Once I finished I went to the closet to see what I'd wear today. I don't have anywhere to go since the triplets have school and the older ones have work.
I don't know about the twins. Not like Giovanni would talk to me willingly.
I started looking for an outfit. Once I found one I put it on and put on some jewelry.

Then I put on some shoes, sprayed some perfume and I was done.
