Maybe didn't really want to talk about this, but she knew it was the only way to get over it. She buried her head in her knees,not wanting the boy to see her expression. Scribbling furiously she wrote, "I had an abusive alchoholic mom. Never went to school. At 11 my mom sold me to slave traders for $30, because that's all I was worth to her. So some family bought me. And I thought living with my mom was bad. Most days I worked till I passed out, not to mention how much they enjoyed hitting me around. Never fed me either, stole food like every 3rd day maybe. Had to be careful, You would not believe the punishment they gave me for stealing food once. I would tell, you but you'd probably be grossed out. I lived that way for 6 years. Finally they sold me back. The 2nd place was no better, but the security wasn't as tight. Got the chance to run away after 6 months. But on my 2nd night alone I got caught stealing food. Considering the circumstance, I got a night in jail and sent here. Nice life huh?" She pushed it toward Jonathan, hoping the boy hadn't noticed her watery eyes.
