Dear Diary: So, hi my name is Sang I've read somewhere if you write what's bothering you it makes it better. I'm giving this a try the only bad thing is I have to keep you safe from my mother and sister. See my mother loves to find reasons to punish me even if I didn't do anything wrong that's where my sister comes in she always telling mother lies bout me. Mother loves to call her punishments her little lessons. They are to teach me to be good and never disobey her. I always loved learning and reading new things. My favorite is learning new languages. I learned how to use sign language, Spanish, and Greek. I want to learn more. I read somewhere about Korean letters and how to form them into English words. This was the only way to have privacy and to be safe. You always hear people say when life throws you a curve ball. You get back up and keep fighting. You have to do everything you can to survive. That's how my life is everyday. I have to survive for myself and for my 5 older brothers. They are everything to me. They protect me from mother and our sister. We just moved here to Charleston South Carolina from Illinois a month ago. Dad just got a new job with an engineering company here. Our house is a two story house with grey and white walls around. It's on a big street called Sunnyvale Court. Totally adorable with new houses everywhere and lots of trees around. I love to excape into the woods to explore when the boys cant be around to watch over me that way I'm out of mothers way. I'm 15 years old you wouldn't believe it if you saw me. I'm only 5'3 with long blonde hair to me nothing special about it but my brothers say otherwise. I have a heart shaped face like my dads with a small button nose. Seriously, I look like a kid but I am 15 that's why my brothers so over protective at home and in public among other things. I've at least grown a little bit of cleavage not much but hey I'm proud of my C's. I have bright green eyes similar to the green grass after a fresh rain. My brothers are Andrew he's the oldest at 23. He is 6'5 with brown wavy hair like our mother with a heart shaped face like dads. His eyes are blue like our dads similar to the blue sky with a slender shaped nose. He takes care of us when we are at home to protect us specially me from our mother. He works at a mechanic shop during the day in downtown Charleston. Andrew's boss name is Brandon Henshaw. He is all man let me tell you he is about 6'7 with well defined muscles probably can crush a walnut with his arms. He has wavy blonde hair that looks sun-kissed and deep blue eyes that holds secrets. He's 22 years old and his twin is just like him. I only met him once with my brothers when we went one Saturday to bring Andrew some lunch. Of course I hid mostly behind my brothers looking around since I'm really shy around other people besides my brothers. I'm scared to talk to other people one becaus mother finding out and punishes me. Two I'm not very good around others. One of the reasons my brothers are always around where I'm not scared even though Brandon doesn't look too scary specially with grease on his nose the day we met him. I still let my brothers do most of the talking. He seems sweet though one day I'll be brave an say hi. The next brothers are the triplets Jeramie, Scotty, and Liam they are 18 and seniors this year. Jeramie is 6'2 with black straight hair like our dads and and round face like our mothers. He has milky brown eyes and our dads round nose. Jeramie is medium built with a 6 pack. Scotty has straight brown hair and a heart shaped face. His eyes are blue with dad's round nose. Scotty is at least 5'11 skinny like me but more defined in muscles. Liam is just like Jeramie but with wavy brown hair like mothers. Liam is 6'2 with muscles everywhere. He has a 6 pack like Jeramie. My sister Marie is 17 with mousy brown hair and dark brown eyes like our mothers . She is almost exactly like her except she has my dad's round nose. Marie is junior this year and let's just say she is hopeless in school work. She only knows how to shop and spend money not very well cause her taste in clothes are revealing and slutty. Cole is my last brother he's 16 and about 6'1 is skinny and lean. He has wavy black hair and dad's blue eyes with mothers round face and slender nose. He's a sophomore like me. Now before you get confused I was doing so good in school back in Illinois the principal allowed me to skip a grade back when I was in 8th grade. My dad allowed me to skip mother really didn't care and was never proud of me. I don't know why mother hates me and treats me so badly. I try everything to stay out of trouble. The boys protect me from mother as much as possible. I have to clean the house by myself from top to bottom and cook all the meals. The boys help when mother is sleeping and can't hear us. She comes up with crazy chores sometimes like cleaning the toilet with a toothbrush. I do anything for my brothers and make sure they are taken care of like they for me. Like I said before mother loves to punish me even for things that I didn't do anything wrong. For example, I want to get the mail when I was 7 and the mail man spoke to me and said good morning. I didn't say anything just waved and went back in side. Mother saw me and accused me of being a whore and trying to lure the mailman to sleep with me. She tied me up in an old trunk we had in the basement. She left me there 4 hours. Andrew found me when he came back from a friend's house. He was so upset and confronted our mother. She hit him across the face and said " I'm the adult and can give her punishment when I see fit." From then on at least one of my brothers stayed with me as much as possible. My father is hardly ever here and travels so much. He calms mother when he's here from her lessons she gives me but when he's gone. We stay far away from her but she does catch me sometimes off guard. Sometimes I have to go through mothers lessons because of I don't and the boys interfere they get way worse and take it out on them to. I never want them to be hurt so I take what ever she gives me. They try to distract her and hide me somewhere until it's safe. When she does catch me off guard and gives me severe punishments my brothers have to treat my wounds. We've never told anyone and we keep it a secret because we don't want to get separated from each other. Andrew can't get us without a place for us to stay in. Mother hasn't always been like this she actually took care of me when I was younger but when I was 6 she started giving her lessons. I never knew why she changed and what I did wrong. Now mother is sick with cancer and her medicine makes her meaner to. We have to be very careful around her. She is more delirious and looses her mind sometimes. I've learned over the years the only way to survive is to keep your head down and mouth closed in this house. I made the mistake once to look at mother when she was screaming at me and I saw pure hatred and disgust in her eyes. Mother then beat me with Scotty's bat he left in the living room. Scotty was crying next to me apologising to me while treating my wounds. It wasn't his fault that she would use his baseball bat on me. He layed with me through the night and helped me get to the bathroom. My brothers each night kept an eye on me just in case mother would come in while I couldn't move. Unless im with my brothers I'm afraid to breathe and always watching around me. I've even picked up a trick of feeling the air shifting and picking up scents from different people. Anything to help me survive my mother and Marie. Andrew has a cinnamon smell, jeramie is bananas, Scotty is fruity like juicy juice gum that fruity smell, Liam is honeysuckles, Cole is pumpkin spice. Marie is that overbearing perfume that smells like u want to hurl. She calls it seduction. Mother has the smell of moth balls and cigerattes. My brothers say I smell like strawberries which are my all time favorite besides chocolate nobody takes my chocolate. Liam tried one time and let's just say he ran screaming from me after I jumped on him and bit him in the hand. He called me a ferocious tiger after. He never touched my chocolate again without my permission. He gave me that nickname after I attacked him that day. Each of the boys have there want nicknames for me. I don't get chocolate very often but Andrew sneaks it in for me without mother knowing. My brothers do everything to protect me at home and from school with horrible bullies. I know my brothers are hot I'm not dumb but I'm their sister so I don't know why mean girls are always coming after me. My brothers are very protective of me and I've never really talked to guys except my brothers friends that hang around us at school. I really don't have any friends so I mostly read and stay out of their way that way they can spend time with their friends . They deserve it they do so much for me.
