The Depths Of Eden:Chapter 1
The Depths to one’s heart is the rushing lullaby that falls you to sleep and dream of what you wish you have stolen from the one you truly love
“Eden what the hell are you doing?” my father said while slurring his words, it was obvious that he was drunk “Dad I was writing” I answered.“Writing won’t get toy anywhere in life!” My Father said while walking towards me “That is crap all these words you don’t learn anything or will you ever earn money” My father protested as he picked up my notebook.
“Dad don’t! …It’s just a hobby” I lied just to try to save my writing “well then your hobby is over!” Dad yelled as he started tarring up pages.I wanted to cry my only escape in the real world is being destroyed by my own drunk father…mom wouldn’t allow this she would cheer me on and she would by my book first before anyone else, but now she’s gone taken away by mobsters holding her at gun point.
“Mom would never destroy my dreams!” I shouted as tears started running down my face “what was that?” my father demanded, I stayed silent trying to hold back my tears,“Girl I asked you a question!” he yelled as he slapped my face.I did nothing about being abused by my dad it’s been a daily thing ever since mom died, my chest tighten as I couldn’t hold back the tears anymore “I’m sorry daddy, I’ll never do it again” I managed to say between every breath.
“That’s what I thought girl,” my father said while stomping out the door “ I hate my dad I wish I could just become one of my stories and get away from this world” I sobbed.Then I looked at the time “Oh crap school is going to start in ten minutes” I said wiping away my tears.
I quickly gathered my things and walked out the door, leaving behind what happened moments ago by putting on an emotional mask to hide my feelings.I got into my dark green Toyota truck and got ready to escape my home and go to school; I looked in the rear view mirror and gazed at my own dark blue eyes and my long black hair.
Everyone says I look exactly like my mother and I always denied it but today I thought it was her I was looking at in the mirror.A tear escaped my eye as I quickly wiped it away and started my engine; I drove into the tenth grade parking lot to Throne Valley High right when I turned off my car I mauled by my best friend Ashley’s hi’s.
“Hello Ashley” I said with a chuckle “Hay Eden, school is going to start in about two minutes and fifty-six seconds” Ashley said while looking at her watch Ashley seemed like what they say about the typical blond not all that good at school smarts and really care more about what she looked like, but really she was the fastest runner on the track timed herself on everything even how fast she did her homework.
“OK then let’s head to English,” I stated as I walked out of my truck “Kay” Ashley replied.English is my favorite subject because not only was our teacher a push over, but also I was able to write my stories freely and turn in a copy as my essay.
My English teacher Mr. Richardson had an essay every week and the topic was about anything you want so I freely wrote for all of the period because he gave us all week to do our essay in class.I was always bummed to here that school bell in the middle of my writing especially today because I have to start over my novel.
During the passing period walking to the other end of school to Mrs. Edwards science class, I saw Mandy Harper and her two snickering friends Ashley and I called them the pink, blond, and the stupid trio or just plain out called them Bitches, either way they fitted the label.
Mandy isn’t the only person I saw during this passing period I also saw Jake Carter; his green eyes sparkled, while his hair shined, and his smile glowed with his cute dimples.“Hay Eden” Jake said with a smile, my heart just sank into my stomach jumped out of my body and was kidnapped by Jakes eyes.
Then the bell rang, I cursed under my breath “Damn I’m late!” I ran to Science class and when I entered Mrs. Edwards just stared and gave me the look like I was tardy everyday rising her mole on her lip high and her three hair in between her eyebrows make a v of anger.
“Sorry Mrs. Edwards I was-“ Mrs. Edwards cut me off “excuses, will age the body Eden” Mrs. Edwards stated, “and tardies will make the brain dumbfounded so go sit in your seat before I give you a referral” Mrs. Edwards demanded.Science is not my match I usually drift off to my imagination while Mrs. Edwards hates me and completely ignores me.
In this class I thanked the lord the bell rang, next was Mrs. Hoffman’s math class, which surprisingly I enjoyed, Mrs. Hoffman just makes math fun and I have no Idea how she does it.
After Mrs. Hoffman’s class, which flew by like jet passing a cloud, was Mr. Mitchell’s history class.Mr. Mitchell was my favorite teacher he usually got off topic and starts talking about fun stuff, while including the history lesson of course.In history Mandy Harper sat right by Jake who sat behind me, history today got a little boring and I drifted off into my own world unfortunately it was the area of my world that was secret so I started drawing Jake’s name all over my workbook with hearts around them.
Mandy caught me in the act and quickly grabbed my notebook and started snickering, while Jake whispered “give that back” “Jake sweetie I’m only reading it because your name is all over it” Mandy stated as she shoved my workbook in Jake’s face.Jake was silent and ignored Mandy and I for the rest of the period, thank god it was lunch next I thought to myself when the bell rang.
At Lunch I Ashley saw me all down and sad I couldn’t keep my mask on anymore my emotions showed up in a frown.“What’s wrong Eden?” Ashley asked at first I stayed silent then I decided to explain what happen in history and this morning at home.
When I was done Ashley gave me a look like what the hell “I new you wrote, but I thought it was a hobby or a phase, only emos write and maybe you should actually pay attention in history so that wouldn’t happen so all this was your fault” Ashley stated I started at her with anger and questions like what the hell happen to my friend? And what the hell Ashley! Bui instead I kept my mouth shut.
“I have to go you can be Emo and hang out with yourself if you keep acting like this” Ashley said as she walked away.All I could say was “that bitch” but of course I didn’t say it till she was at least twenty feet away.I decided to walk around school to get my mind off the worst day of my life, I ended up walking by Jake and his friends I said hi, but he just glared at me and kept talking to his friends.
I filled up with anger ready to beat Mandy to a pulp, I started searching for her around the courtyard until I finally see her and the three girls sitting with her.I was in shock when I realized that the third one sitting by Mandy was Ashley then I was in disbelief of what I was hearing “yah Eden is such an annoying bitch with always complaining about her father beating her and her drunk mom getting mugged” Ashley said while laughing with Mandy.
I wanted to go up to Ashley and curse her out, but I didn’t have the backbone to do it, then of course the bell rings and Ashley get up and turns around and makes eye contact with each other I made sure I gave her the glare to let her know I heard her then turn around and walk away basically ending our friendship.
I did feel apart of me fade away as I walked farther and farther away, Ashley was my best friend since 7th grade she was the only one I trust enough to talk about my family issues and secrets now she betrayed me so I have to move on.5th period was my elective librarian’s aide, the librarian Melissa was like a second mom to me she always knew how to cheer me up so I was anxious to talk to her.
As I walk into the Library I didn’t see Melissa, but instead I saw the principal and three other staff members sobbing.“What’s going on where’s Melissa?” I asked, “I’m sorry Eden, but Melissa had a Heart Attack this morning and passed away thirty minutes ago we just got the notice.
I stayed silent it was like my whole world was dying and I was going to die with it I sat in Melissa’s chair and started off into space how only minutes, but it was actually the whole period.“Eden go to your next period maybe some exercise would take your mind off Melissa” Mr. Sullivan said, but if he only knew what was going on in my head.
I walked out if the Library and headed for the gym, the first thing I saw was Mandy and Ashley laughing there heads off, my eyes filled with tears and my body exploded with rage I stomped to the bleachers waiting for Mr. Rutherford tells us what we got on the run yesterday.Of course Ashley was first I thought in my head, but then I was slapped in the face by the name that came out of my P.E teacher’s mouth.
“Eden Charmers” Mr. Rutherford said, I was in shock I couldn’t believe I was first I stared at Ashley who had her arms crossed in disbelief, then Mr. Rutherford said “came in last” my smile dropped while Mandy smiled and gave me the finger, I scoffed with anger the rest of the period was all announcements and how to keep in shape, so when the bell rang I decided to stick with my idea I thought in the Library s I walked to my truck.
I was going to kill myself by jumping off the city’s bridge into the lake, it took at least am hour to get there and I did have second thoughts, but I couldn’t think with all my problem popping up in my head besides if I die I’ll be with my mom and out of this horrible life that god created for me.
I parked to the edge of the bridge I opened my door looking down at the lake, it was about 400 feet high, high enough to kill me I quickly jumped out of my car on too the bridge’s edge.I took a deep breath closed my eyes and jumped falling to my death.
As I hit the water I felt nothing it was clean and painless until I realized that I wasn’t dead, I was under water, and I was breathing.I was in shock once I my feet touched the bottom, I was breathing perfectly I could see through the mucky green water as fish swam by me.
I had the sudden urge to dance in the water letting my hair float in the water, but the confusion of how this is happening and how I was thankful for this miracle.When I was falling my mind said why am I doing this I have a future and two years of high school these problems I can get over, can’t I?
So I basically this sudden power I have developed must be god giving me chance to escape death.I quickly swam up putting my head above water, It was already dark and my truck was about to be towed away, I cursed under my breath “I can’t get my truck from down here it would take at least an hour to hike up there on foot” I said to myself.
Frustration overpowered me I looked back up to the bridge seeing the tow man hooking up my truck so he could take it to the car graveyard.I just wished I could make it up there in a matter of seconds; I was to busing pouting to see the water start to bubble.Then the water itself pushed me out from the lake, launching me high in the air, then quickly caught me and set me down on the edge of the bridge.
The tow man just stared at me in shock as he dropped the chain, I waved and walked into my car and zoomed off to my house.I had the sudden feeling in my gut that I got when ever I knew I would be in trouble once I drove up in the drive way and opened the front door.‘
My dad jumped to his feet holding a Bud Light his face was exploding with anger, “what in the world have you been girl!” My Father yelled, “I was studying in the school’s library” I said for a false excuse “Liar it’s 8:36, where have you been!” My father demanded.“I was at the lake with my friends” I quickly said, “You are lying, aren’t you?” My father stated as he stomped toward me.
“No I wouldn’t lie to you” I said in fear “another lie!” My father shouted as he grabbed my arms and pinned me against a wall.“Dad you’re hurting me’ I shouted, “what do you think of me as your father!” my dad demanded, “I love you daddy” I started to cry.
“Another Lie!” My father yelled as he punched me in the stomach “answer the truth and I’ll let you go!” My father demanded, I had the urge to fight back, but instead I told him the truth… who knows he might change “I hate that you drink all the time it makes you mad and angry and you hurt me and ruin my dreams so I hate you and I wish you died and mom stayed alive.
My dad eyes filled up with anger, but he let go of me then out of nowhere punched me in the face knocking me over then kicked me three times.“Just letting you know this before I beat you to death you little bitch, I killed your mom not the mobsters she wanted a divorce and that pissed me off so I killed her!” My dad admitted.
My eyes filled with tears but my body exploded with anger, I kicked my dad in the knee pushing him a couple feet back and jumped to my feet.My dad charged for me I pushed him back while kneeing him in the stomach, he dropped his beer bottle and it smashed all over the floor.My hand became a fist out of anger and all of the sudden the beer shot up making a giant beer bubble surrounding my dad’s face.
“Alcohol will kill you” I said as I watched my dad suffocate in the beer bubble, my dad dropped dead to the ground and I with no emotion no feeling of regret I walked up into my room and fell asleep.I slept in the next morning until a sudden jolt in my brain said OH CRAP SCHOOL, so I jumped out of bed got dressed and ran down the stairs, ignoring my father’s dead body and stood in shock that the front door was wide open, “I must have forgot to shut it” I said to myself and got in my car.
While I was driving to school to police cars zoomed passed me I simply ignored them and kept driving. When I finally reached Throne Valley High I ran to the office and asked for a tardy slip.“My Eden you sure are late” the front office lady stated, “why what time is it?” I asked, “11:40 lunch is in four minutes dear” the front office lady answered.
“Wow bad day to have your alarm not set off” I said as an excuse “yah get to class now Hun” the front office lady said while handing the tardy slip to me.“Thank you” I said as I walked out of the office, the bell rang before I even reached class so I just headed to the courtyard to eat my food.
Once I sat down Mandy and Ashley started to gang up on me by first making fun of how I look “No what Mandy shut up because we everyone knows you are screwing all your teachers so you don’t flunk 10th grade” I said as a comeback, Mandy looked a little shock that I actually fought back.
“Well Eden we all know you’ve been lying of how your mom died” Ashley cut in “oh really then how did she die” I demanded razing my right eyebrow “she screwed so many men that she broke her pelvis so bad that she died” Ashley stated.
Mandy started laughing “that is a good one Ashley” Mandy said my heart broke of the horrible words that flew out of my old friend’s mouth after she knew that it was hard to talk about my mother’s death and now that I found out my dad actually killed her it made it even harder.
“Oh look Ash she about to cry” Mandy said as she pointed and laughed at me, my body filled up with sadness and rage I stood up and punched Mandy in the nose and kicked Ashley in the stomach.“Hay look two bitches squirming on the ground” I said as I walked out of the courtyard and into the parking lot.
“I’m done with this school,” I mumbled to my self as I walked into my truck and started the engine.I drove home to start packing my stuff then call my aunt to live with her in Orange County, but that planned changed when I saw two police cars and a paramedics in front of my house.
“What are you guys doing?” I demanded “it’s the daughter arrest her” one of the police cops said while two big cops picked me up from the ground.“Let go of me what my crime!” I demanded, “you are charged with the crime of murdering your father” The police cop explained.
“What’s your evidence!” I shouted “first a witness named Ashley Myers said she saw you kill him this morning when she came by to say hi to you, and second your finger prints are all over his arms” The police cop explained “Ashley is lying and my dad attacked me yesterday I had to fight back!” I shouted, “So admitting to the crime… take her away!” The police cop demanded.
“No!” I yelled as the two cops started walking to the police car I kicked one of the cops in the back of the leg and punched the other one in the nose making them release me.I ran for my truck but the head police cop pulled out his gun a shot three bullets at me, I stood still shutting my eyes, thinking its over for, but when I opened my eyes gasoline from the police car blocked each bullet from hitting me.
I got into my car a fast as I could while the police cops where still in confusion of what just happened.I was out of the problem and was heading to only place I thought safe… the lake, it would hide me from this situation all I have to do is live there for a couple of years and this whole problem will just disappear.
Then I heard gunshots from behind me I looked din my rear view mirror three-cop cars where on my tail so I sped up on the high way swiftly dodging every car in my way.More gunshots fired I looked back every thirty seconds and it seemed that more and more cop cars appeared every time I checked.Then I saw the lake’s bridge finally I thought to my self, I sped up as fast as I could, but right before I almost made it one of the gunshots blew out my tire causing me to swerve out of control.“Damn it!” I yelled stomping on the brake as hard as I could, the cop cars couldn’t slow down fast enough and crashed into me just enough to flip my car off the bridge hurdling into the lake.
