"I was raped at 9"

She's always laughing so you don't know what terrible thing happened to her.

The rally.
The sign that said "RAPED".
She lost it.
I've never been one to comfort someone when they cry, until she told me "I was raped at 9"

I held her, she was a good person and her own uncle and cousin did this terrible thing to her. Her mother didn't believe her.
I was so...angry.
I wanted to cause them pain, I wanted them to suffer like she did. She trusted them and they...raped her. Not just once either.

I'll never get used to that word. That terrible, awful fucking word. I love any word but this one.

She's making a life for herself though, she's going to college and I know she'll be happy in life. We don't talk as much but we both remember the day she told me.

Raped at 9 but she still survived. I hope you read this sweetheart, you deserve nothing but happiness in your life.
