All my life I never would have believed that at sixteen years old I would be living off the streets , but somehow I manage . I managed when my parents kicked me out two years ago when I became pregnant . I managed when I told them that I was raped by my best friend's brother. But no one believed me. I ended up losing the baby two months after I was abandoned by my family. I wasn't eating properly and bad living conditions didn't help my situation. A year and a half later , I was still on the run. Jason , the boy who raped me was still out there looking for me. God knows what would have happened if I stayed in Chicago. Two weeks ago I found out. I was walking down the street towards a bakery when I saw him. I tried to run but he was too fast . For the second time in my life I was beaten and raped. He told me that he would find me where ever I went. I told myself never again and ran away to New York.
