I was only 8 year old, when my whole life would change without me knowing. I have blocked out, when or I should say how the abuse even started but I’m working on that. I do remember, wanting to just play with my friends or ask someone questions about what was going on. My mother was involved with we will call him Franco, and he seemed like a great father and perfect for my mom. Not the case. He started touching me, and then that day came where my clothes were off, I was pulled closer and I remember so much lotion caked on my private area. And then it happened, my innocence gone. I believe once he knew, he did that and I didn’t say a word.. he won. So, it continued until I was 12. My tailbone was so badly bruised, I couldn’t sit right, I became numb. Then, I thought what if this happens to my little sister, so I finally spoke up. I was quiet from 8-12, and I’m thankful my mother believed me. He took off, and I recently tracked him down, more than 20 years and I still feel guilty. Bella and the Beasts
