itching down below or was needing to urinate more and when my periods started well that didn’t stop him either. Instead, he’d just place towels down on the bed and use those to cover up the mess. One time he nearly landed himself in it with mum but managed to tell her this huge pack of lies about how I had nearly damaged the mattress by not using sanitary towels mum had got me and dad had decided to be

inventive by using towels on my mattress to stop any potential staining instead. He had gotten pretty good at lying…too good in fact it was disturbing. I guess he would say what he needed to say to hide the fact he was sexually abusing his own daughter for his own selfish games.

When I turned 15 that’s when the real ‘fun’ started.
