The summer before senior year had been one of the hardest for me and I hadn't told anyone just how bad it was. My father woke me up one morning and spoke softly and sweetly to me which should have caused red flags to go up in my mind right away, but I didn't think too much of it. He did that sometimes after he let his anger get away and gave me a beating that was a little too far.
