Have you ever experienced growing up without your parents, this is my story.
I am Isabella Norman, I grew up with my grandmother,I never got the chance to meet my dear mother,from what I heard is that she died immediately after she gave birth to me.
My so called 'Dad' left me with my grandmother at the age of eight,he never really cared for me;he doesn't talk to me only when it's necessary,he never showed me what is called fatherly love.
I envy most girls when I see them with their parents,I had no friends,I never got the chance to go out,when my 'Dad' was with me he made sure I never get the chance to go out.
I was home schooled,I have always imagining going outside and facing the world would be but my dad made sure I got none of this even when he left me alone,I knew he never loved me,he as never once called me my name,I once heard him talking to my grandma that he hated having me as his child,he was ashamed of having someone like me as his child,he blamed me for losing my mother.
I was broken that night I cried so hard until I passed out on the cold floor,the next day when I woke I decided to be strong not to show my weakness,I decided not care about does who doesn't love me.
When my dad left I thought that I could finally have the freedom I have always wanted,but my dad made sure I never stepped out of the house.
After two years,my dad came home I was excited to see him,I hugged him and I told him I have missed him so much but instead he shouted at me'GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME ISABELLA',I moved back immediately cause his voice was so scary,that was the first time I would ever hear him mention my name and it was not out love instead it was out of hatred.
I immediately let go of me and I bow my head as I was thought to do for the rest of my life,I never my actions would make him become more angry and I felt a pair of large hand hit my cheeks,the pain were so unbearable,I tried to hold my tears but it kept streaming down my face.
'This all what you know how to do,you this ungrateful thing,it is a shame to have you as my daughter',I fell down after I heard him say those awful words to me.
'The next time you try to leave this house again or I ever see you communicate with anyone,I would make your life miserable'.
My dad left me after saying does words to me,that when I finally understand that he doesn't care whether I am alive or not, he never really cared about me .
I decided to end my relationship with him,I changed my surname from Anderson to Norman,from that day I decided to forget about him and be strong.
