MONROE
DALLAS
KNIGHTS
I sat on the edge of my bed, staring out the window into the dark,
seemingly starless sky. Freedom was so close I could taste it.
18.
It felt like I’d been waiting my whole life for this moment. For this
specific birthday. The thought of finally being able to leave this place, to
start my life, on my own terms…it helped get me through each day.
I knew it would be difficult when I left. I only had my scrimpy savings
from my after school job at the grocery store to start my life. But I’d do
whatever it took to make something of myself.
Something more than the empty shell my mother had left me that day.
I’d been in the foster system since I was ten years old, the day after that
fateful night where I’d lost her. Everyone wanted to adopt a baby, and a
baby I had not been. I’d gone through what seemed like a hundred different
homes at this point, but my current home was where I’d managed to stay
the longest.
Unfortunately.
My foster parents, Mr. and Mrs. Detweiler, and their son Ripley, seemed
like nice people at first, but over time, things had changed. They were
different now.
Mrs. Detweiler, Marie, had come to think of me as her live-in maid. I
was all for helping out around the house, but when they got up as a
collective group after every meal and left everything to me to clean up–as
well as every other chore around the house–it was too much.
Someday, hopefully in the near future, I would never clean someone
else’s toilet again.
While I could deal with manual labor for another month, it was Mr.
Detweiler, Todd, who had become a major problem. His actions had grown
increasingly creepy, his longing stares and lingering glances making me
sick. Everything he said to me had an underlying meaning…was an
innuendo. He’d started talking about my birthday more, like he wanted to
remind me of it for reasons far different than the promise of freedom it
represented to me. I’m not sure it had even occurred to any of them yet that
I was actually allowed to leave after that day.
Both my birthday and high
school graduation were the same week. Perfect timing. I just hoped he
could control himself and keep his hands off me long enough to get to that
point. Some people might not think a high school graduation was anything
special, but to me, it represented everything.
Ripley was fine, I guess. He was more like a potato than a person,
which was better than other things he could be. His eyes skipped over me
when we were in the same room, like I didn’t actually exist. And maybe I
didn’t exist to him. As long as his bed was made every day, and he had food
on the table, and toilet paper stocked to wipe his ass, he could care less. He
was much too involved in his video games to care about the world around
him.
