"Dad!" I yelled out of shock with my eyes wide open when I saw my father storming into the room.
His eyes weren't just angry-they were wild. His fists were clenched so tight his knuckles were white, and his whole body shook like something was about to explode from inside him.
"Oh no," I breathed. Not again. Please, not again.
"Go to school, Kester. You're running late," my dad said to me, but his eyes were burning into my mum's face, and his whole body was shaking so much.
I looked at Mum. She wasn't crying anymore. Now, she was standing staring back at him with fire in her eyes. But I could tell-she was scared. She just didn't want to show it in front of me.
"Now!" Dad yelled at me, but maybe today should be the day I stood up for Mum.
"No," I said, barely above a whisper.

"No! I won't let you hurt her today, Dad. Leave alone!" I yelled at him.
I heard my Mum gasp behind me, but I didn't care. I was going to protect her whether she liked it or not.
Then I felt Mum's hand on my shoulder. I looked up. She was crying again, but it was different now. She looked like/she was seeingfor the first time.
And maybe... maybe she was proud.
"Kester," she called me, and I could hear her voice shaking, "You can stand up for me. Go to school. Your father and I need to talk about sthings..." She said, but I didn't believe her.
They weren't going to talk. They were going to fight.
No, Mum!", I yelled loader than I ever had before. My voice cracked. My throat burned. "I want to protect you from this man!" I yelled.
I felt angry. Too angry. And I noticed that all the anger I'd been feeling toward both of them over the years was piling up and gathering in my chest all at once.
