“You can’t trust me because I can’t trust you.”
I can not trust you because you lied to me many times. Last time you said to me you were going to buy a toy for me after I finish all my housework, but after that you did not buy the toy for me. I cried so hard afterwards while you were sitting there and watching TV.
My throat burned from sobbing, and my cheeks were hot and wet. The tears fell so fast that I couldn’t even breathe between hiccups. The sound of the TV felt far away, almost mocking me.
The more I wiped my eyes, the blurrier everything looked.That hurt me so much.
Another time you lied to me was the time I went to school, I thought that was a normal day. But in the end, you took me to the hospital for an injection. Suddenly, some people held my hands and gave me a shot.
The needle felt like fire touching my skin. My heart pounded in my chest as I kicked and twisted, trying to break free. But their hands were too strong. I was so scared and wanted to run away. I cried and cried but not one stopped.
My face turned too blotchy, and my eyes were swollen and red from all the crying. Tears kept running down my cheeks, and my nose was stuffy so I could barely breathe. The room smelled of medicine, cold and I felt smaller than ever. But no one came to help me.
That is why I can not trust you anymore. You said things that were not true, and every time I believed you, I got hurt.
Now when you say “trust me”, my stomach twists and my chest tightens. I just feel frightened.
