Chapter 1: Sleeping on the streets

Next Chapter

Today is the last day of my summer vacation, I will go to school tomorrow, I am in junior college, although there is no holiday homework, I can enjoy the whole vacation, but, among my classmates and friends, only I have the worst life, my relatives only have my sister, my father died early, my mother also died of advanced stomach cancer two years ago, I have been living with my sister and stepfather.

In the evening, I was woken up by a loud knock on the door, and I saw through the glass of the door a figure with a tiger's back cursing and knocking on the door, and without thinking about it, I knew that my stepfather had come to me again to ask for money.

"What are you doing, Dad?" I lifted the blanket covering my body, rubbed my eyes and asked, my sister has not come back from work at this time, and he doesn't know where my sister Liu Xiaoxiao works, if she knows, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Liu Yiyi, you dead girl!Open the door for Lao Tzu!Give Lao Tzu money!" Stepfather Wang Changfu frantically slammed the door, he smashed the wooden frame around the glass on the door, from the crackling sound on the door, I could hear that the door of my room had been smashed by him, I was angry and scared at this time.

"Dad, our family has no money! Can you stop gambling? I have to go to school tomorrow!" I shouted at the door in a panic, Wang Changfu was divorced, had no job, often beat me and my sister after drinking, my sister has been injured many times in order to protect me, it has always been my sister in a 4S store as a sales manager to maintain the family, I also came back to work in the winter and summer vacations, because today is the last day of the holiday, so I quit my job, although I have some money on hand, but that is the cost of my schooling, my stepfather not only did not treat me and my sister well, but often asked the two of us for money to fool around outside, and now, I began to take drugs againใ€‚

"Dead girl, if you don't open the door again, I'll copy the guy!" Wang Changfu still roared at the door, and then kicked the door three times, I really had no choice, my heart was beating uneasily, I didn't speak, got out of bed and put on slippers and went over to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, I was viciously choked by my stepfather's big hand, his eyes were full of bloodshots, he suddenly pressed me on the bed, gritted his teeth and glared at me and said: "Cheap girl, hurry up and get money for Lao Tzu, or I will strangle you!"

I was pinched by him, grabbed his arm with both hands and pulled it up with difficulty, and said painfully, "Dad...... I said we had no money...... Don't go for drugs...... It's not good for you ...... either. "I said that, but I knew it didn't work, especially for someone like him.

Just as he was about to slap my face with his other hand, Liu Xiaoxiao opened the door and came back, and as soon as she entered the room, she saw the scene in my room, and the food in her hand fell to the ground because of surprise, and her face was full of worry.

"Sister...... Save me....... When Wang Changfu saw Liu Xiaoxiao, he immediately let go of the hand holding my neck, and rushed over to grab my sister's arm with a flattering face, "Girl, you're back, hurry, get some money for Dad!"

I covered my neck and coughed violently, and even a fishy sweetness welled up in my throat, and my sister saw me coughing, pushed Wang Changfu away, and ran towards me.

"Yiyi, are you okay!" Liu Xiaoxiao ran over and hugged my body and asked anxiously, I couldn't speak, still coughing, when I eased up a little, Liu Xiaoxiao was grabbed by Wang Changfu by the hair and dragged over, she screamed in pain, and then was slapped by Wang Changfu.

"Sister....... I gasped and cried, the slap she was given was like a slap in my face, Wang Changfu's merciless slap was loud, and I could feel the hot pain on my face when I listened to it.

I can't tolerate my sister being beaten, she has suffered a lot of injuries for me before, I don't want my relatives to be hurt anymore, I quickly went to the living room table to pick up a glass ashtray, quickly ran into the bedroom and smashed Wang Changfu's head, Wang Changfu was suddenly beaten by me and fainted.

"Sister, let's go quickly!" Seeing my stepfather lying on the ground, I was scared for a while, I had never beaten someone like this, and although I was trying to save my sister today, I was still scared.

"Okay, let's go!" Liu Xiaoxiao was also frightened, she was kind-hearted, from childhood to adulthood, even if she stepped on an ant, she felt sad, but today I saw such a big person being knocked to the ground, or her own sister did it, she didn't feel pity, but told me to hurry up and pack my luggage and go out with her.

At night, my sister and I walked on the street, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, I dragged two suitcases, and she strolled down the street, before we knew it, we came to the night market, it was still so lively, I saw those fragrant snacks, I felt hungry, I had been sleeping from noon to evening, and I was woken up by my stepfather, thinking of this, I felt uncomfortable, my sister and I were already bitter enough, why add a stepfather who is not as good as a beast?

"Sister, are you hungry?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked me softly, the lights on the streets and food stalls of the night market are dim yellow, and people's faces are also very dark yellow, but Liu Xiaoxiao's beautiful face and long black and silky hair, no matter what kind of light is illuminated, cannot hide her natural beauty.

"Oh...... Well, what about you, sister. "I'm still thinking back to the scene at home before, hearing Liu Xiaoxiao ask me this, I was immediately stunned for a moment, and then reluctantly answered her, she saw that I was a little distracted, and felt very helpless, after all, I hit my stepfather just now, so that we can't forget, of course she can guess what I'm thinking.

My sister and I bought some grilled cold noodles, takoyaki, oden and other things, and settled dinner in an oden tent.

My sister and I have decided not to go back, so as not to be troubled by Wang Changfu, although we have money, but only a little savings to be able to live, and I have to finish the last year of college, so, I can save some, since my mother died, my sister and I have lived a life of misery, and my mother was too honest and kind to look at people, so we found Wang Changfu as our stepfather, we don't blame our mother, after all, she doesn't want our sisters to have no relatives.

We didn't talk much along the way, obviously because we didn't dare to go home and felt uncomfortable, and we didn't want to stay in a hotel, because we wanted to save as much as possible, and I will go to school tomorrow in the dormitory, and Liu Xiaoxiao can also live in the apartment of the unit, so today will be a day.

Finally, my sister and I stopped in a remote alley, there are very few people here, although there is a street around, but it is sparsely populated, and there are not even a few cars in sight, and there is a power plant nearby that I have had since I was born, although it is an alley, but it is very warm, the alley is very narrow, and it is summer, so we decided to spend the night here, because my sister is more worried about the future life than me, so our sisters are just a sentence: "If you can save, you can save." โ€
