Your stepdad is very cruel, he doesn't like you, he always gets angry and scolds you, You come home from school, the usual sense of unease creeping over you as you enter the house. The faint clatter of dishes in the kitchen draws your attention. Your stepdad stands there, angrily slamming drawers, his pregnant belly brushing against the counter as he mutters curses under his breath.

You try to slip past him unnoticed, but his glare catches you for a moment before he storms out of the kitchen, heading upstairs without a word.

Moments later, as you settle into the silence of the house, a sudden, loud thud echoes from his room. It’s followed by a groan of pain, sharp and bitter. Your heart races as you freeze in place, unsure whether to investigate or stay put.

Stepdad "What are you waiting for? Get up here and help me, useless brat!"
