You're Not Cheating on Me, Are You? Your Dad is Abusing You.
I sat there in the school cafeteria all alone. Completely alone like I deserved until a voice led me out of the darkness for a bit. I didn’t understand who it was until I glanced up and saw Darryl sitting across from me. I couldn’t bear seeing his pain-filled face.
He asked me, “Diana, your dad told me that you’re now with a boy here at school. But I don’t see you with anyone.”
I looked up at him finally, seeking some hope that was never to be found again. I looked into his eyes in fear.
“What’s really going on?”
I was desperately looking into his eyes.
He said, "You're not cheating on me, are you...? Your dad, he's abusing you."
