I was walking to my house from an exhausting day. The work was so hard. The salary wasn't enough for me to pay my college fees and exam fees. Also, I need to send quarter of my salary to my sister.

I'm living alone since I was 13. I left my home. All because of my father. He is alcoholic. He never ever done anything for us.

He works to just drink. He thrashes mom every night infront of me and my elder sister Ramya. Ramya has never been happy because of him so did I.

There's night where I couldn't sleep in the sound of mom crying and dad yelling. There's several nights where dad thrashes us for being a burden to him.

I can't at one stage. Inspite of the fact that her husband is a snake, my mom still supports my father as if he is an innocent earthworm.

She never talks against him nor she lets us to. I can't at one stage to resist everything and control my anger. So, I complained the police against my own father.

I remember when my father and mother yelled badly when I was 14 and everyone in the police station's gaze was at us. They were looking at me strange.

But, I didn't care about them and stood against them. They put my father in jail and my mom was crying and cursing me.

I felt terribly bad when my mom was cursing me when all I did was for her. People were looking at me weirdly that made me think if I did something bad.

But no. I was right!

People around me including the police were whispering about me. Actually, the female police officers were praising me that what I did was correct and not to regret it.

I believed them. I believed them instead of my parents. Ramya, on the other side was crying. She was a coward all these times and even now.

She doesn't support my mom and dad. But, she was dependent on them.

My dad was kept on lock-up for them whole night. My mom arranged bail for him getting a big amount of loan. It made me furious that she was helping him.

After getting bail, my dad hit me with his slipper on my face. Everyone around was looking at me as if I was a criminal. But, they never knew I was a victim. Always a victim.

I took the biggest decision on my life that day. That was to leave them. Leave them forever. I thought living alone will be far better than having a toxic parents.

I tried to convince Ramya to come along with me earning a slap from my mom and dad. I ended up leaving the home alone without Ramya.

Why many woman support their toxic husband. Just because they're married?

In the beginning when I left the home, was like hell. I don't know where to go and how to keep myself alive.

I slept alone in a street in the first day night. 4 men approached towards me and tried to misbehave with me. Their mischievous smile and behaviour are still pictured in my mind.
