• December 6, 1992,a beautiful baby is born. Her eyes baby blue with peach skin. The parents of this baby loved her beauty. They loved her, so they named her Sunshine, a good name fit for this baby...

    Years passed on, with Sunshine being 4 years old. The love of her parents seemed to fade away. It was dinner time. "Mother, can I eat now?" asked Sunshine. "No, you'll wait til I eat!"
    "But mother! I'm hungry!" Sunshine yelled. Sunshine's father got up from the sofa in the living room, took off his belt, grabbed Sunshine and beat her. She screamed and cried and begged for him to stop. He stopped and sent Sunshine to her room with tear streaming down her face.
    Sunshine expected this. She knew not to talk back to her mother. 9:47 p.m., the parents were asleep. Sunshine crept to the kitchen and found something to eat. While Sunshine ate, she cried. She didn't feel good with the wounds on on her back and back side. Her father would always hit her with whatever he found. Belts, hangers, shoes, even her mother's purse straps that come off. Sunshine's mother would yell, curse, call names or neglect her when she felt like Sunshine was doing something wrong. Imagine if this was happening for 3 more years.

    Sunshine, now 7, had scars on her head, back, back side, legs and arms. She was very depressed. She wanted to die, die and be in a better place. Sunshine's father purchased a gun to keep criminals out the house. He also threatened to shoot her if she tries to run away to make her scared. August 14 1999, Sunshine put the dishes in the wrong place. Her mother said, "Why can't you do anything right!? You're not a child!!!! You're a disgusting, lazy demon!!!!!!!!" She slapped Sunshine. Sunshine staggered to the ground. "Stupid Retard!" The mother walked away. Sunshine lifted her head. "You witch! I want you to die! Die and go to hell!!!" Sunshine thought. The father found her on the ground and lifted her up to her feet. Sunshine covered her face in fear. He removed her hands and kissed her and her bruise. eek Shocked, Sunshine went to her room and held her cheek.

    8:30 p.m., Sunshine's mother invited a male friend. Sunshine was introduced to him. The man and the family sat in the living room. The adults mostly talked about adult stuff. The man got thirsty. "Get this nice man some grape juice,'' Sunshine's mother ordered Sunshine. She ran in the kitchen and got the juice. Right when she was about to give him the juice, she stumbled and spilled the juice on him. "You stupid girl! I'll kill you if I have to!" the man yelled.The mother laughed. Sunshine's father pulled out his gun. It had no bullets, he just wanted to just scare him out the house. The man pulled out a gun too, but this one had bullets. "Get out!"the father yelled."NOW!!!" The man pulled the trigger on his gun. It got the father in the head. Sunshine and her mother screamed. The man turned to Sunshine's mother and shot her in the head. Sunshine was next to two pools of blood. The man decided not to kill her because of the people outside. He escaped through the back but was caught.

    Today, Sunshine lives alone in sorrow with no one to care.

    THE END
