Horror of it All

She had enough. Many times her father would could home staggering drunk, and force himself onto her. He didn't care. He had no regret when he would sober up. Her mother knew that if she ever said a word she'd be beaten & thrown out into the streets. She cared about her own hide and not her own flesh & blood. She came into this marriage with nothing and will leave the marriage with nothing.

Her daughter is now dependent on drugs. Any drugs to release her from this horror. Pills, heroin, meth, alcohol, anything to get her fucked up and to drown these memories.  

The girl's boyfriend is incarcerated. He said when he's released they will be married. A new chapter in her life. About a year ago he held up a convenient store and assaulted the owner. He made off with $100.00. He was arrested, tried & convicted for 3 years. This was his first offense. The two would write each other quite often. He knew what type of scumbag her father was. Several times, she went into detail on what he said and done to her. The father has tied, gagged, raped & assaulted her numerous times. There was even a scare that she may have been pregnant but that wasn't the case. She hated him. So much that one of these days she will get him back for all the years of torment & misery.

One of the letters she wrote to her boyfriend was asking if he knew anyone on the outside that can get her a gun. Nothing fancy, just something for protection. She knew a change was needed and needed now! He gave one person he knew and told her to meet him at this place on the outskirts of town. Just tell them I sent you.  

Two weeks later she met with this gentleman. He was older, looked like he served time by the scars on his forehead and cheek. but generally sincere. He asked why she wanted a gun. She said simply, for protection. He had the perfect gun for her. A Smith & Wesson 340 PD. The gun was light, easy to load and simple to shoot. He asked if she wanted any lessons to learn how to shoot. She told him, No. She paid him only $150 for the gun. A really good price, considering the gun was only used once. The man told her to be well and say hello to your boyfriend when you write him. They shook hands and she left.

When she returned home, she had some time to write her boyfriend and mail the letter before her father comes stumbling home. She knew he will. It's Friday night. Usually by 2am is when he appears. In the letter she explained that she met up with the man and he sold her a great gun for a good price. She also mentioned that she's not afraid anymore. Everything that has happened will end the next time he's about to rape me. She finished the letter off by saying thank you for all you've done to get me threw these hard times. Love the girl.  

Around 2am the father comes home. He's making a racket. Banging into things, shuffling his feet and even call out her name with a slurred annoying groan. He opens her door to her room. The silhouette of him standing there has been etched into her mind for years. He mumbles, "Give daddy some loving. I want to feel good." As he began pulling his belt off, knowing she may scream and resist, she slid her hand underneath the pillow to grab the loaded gun. He couldn't see this, since the room was dark. As his face edged closer & closer to hers, she slid her hand out from underneath the pillow and said, "BACK THE FUCK AWAY!!" This time, her mother woke up and came into the hallway. She said panicking to her husband, "GET OFF OF HER! YOU'VE HURT HER TO LONG!" He turned around and punched his wife directly in the nose. Blood splattered everywhere. She went down. He continued to assault his wife. The commotion and violence that continued to escalate, made her rethink everything going through her mind. She took the gun, aimed it to her temple and shot herself once in the head.  
Her mother trying so hard to get to her daughter but it was to late. She was dead.

Her husband realized the severity of this whole ordeal. He packed up some of his belongings, got into his truck and left. A short time later the police arrived. Not because the mother called but because someone was driving by and heard screaming & arguing.  

A sad chain events that occurred here could have been avoided. Unfortunately they weren't.  

When the boyfriend got word that his girlfriend committed suicide, he made it a point that when he's released he will find him, torture him and kill him. The violence continues...
