It had been 3 months since I moved into my uncles house. I was going to be leaving tomorrow so I was in the middle of packing everything of mine. I didn't really have much things of my own. A couple of clothes, shoes, jewelery and pictures. That's all.

I still hadn't started talking full on. I would merely talk, a say only things like Hello, Good Bye, Yes, No, Night and Morning. My uncle was tall, with black hair and silvery blue eyes like mine. People could think we were twins, but we were not and he was older than me.

My uncle was handsome and had a kind heart, but with problems at work recently, he has stuck to drinking. He hasn't been coming home nights, and when he was home he would hit me.

I was about to zip up my suit case just before the door suddenly burst open. A gust of wind flew into the room making me shiver. My uncle stood before me with something shining in his eyes. It was something I had only seen in his eyes when he was with women. He walked towards me swiftly raising a hand to my face. I couldn't move; I wouldn't move.

"It's a pity your leaving." He said leaning towards me. I didn't say anything, I just took a step back, backing him fall forward onto his face. He looked up at me with anger and confusion shining in his eyes. He shook it off and got up once again. He leaned in again, to slap me. I didn't move for a moment.  When I didn't respond he slapped me harder   I pulled back from him and pushed him out of my room. I slammed the door shut and locked it. I heard him banging on my door, and after a while he stopped. I heard footsteps go down the stairs and then disappear.

I was getting tired so I switched off my light and went to sleep, trusting the lock to hold in place until the next morning.

It was finally morning and I was very aware of the settings around me. I groaned and got up from the bed. I was still in the clothes I had on the night before, so I decided to take a shower. I had extra clothing laid out on my bed. I ran the shower and got in. I had stripped out of my clothes already. I washed my hair and body, with special gels. I got out of the shower and dressed. I dried and straightened my jest black hair before grabbing all my belongings and leaving my room, for the very last time.

Today was the day, I was to be sent to the foster home in New Jersey. I walked down the stairs to the kitchen, to find my uncle starring at me. I looked away from him and went to the door. Through the window I saw the cop car meant to take me to the home. I was just about to reach for the handle, when I was turned around and hugged. I pulled away from him and gave him a look before turning away.

"Good bye UNCLE." i said to him. With that I walked away from him and to the car. I entered the car quickly not wanting to see the expression on my uncles face. While were driving I had put on my ipod on and was listening to "Say Hey" A fun song. The drive seemed to take forever, but after a while we drove past a large sign saying "WELCOME TO NEW JERSEY." I smiled a bit before relaxing into the seat.
