Manaakitanga Story

Hello fellow readers for Art for the past few weeks we have been making
narrative stories to go with our animations I got inspired by a book called
lost girl by R.L Stine. Here is my story I have not yet gotten to the manaakitanga
point of view here is my narrative story.

It was night and I couldn’t take it anymore, all of the yelling and talking

made me dizzy and of course my dad had to flip out over something stupid.

I ran and I ran until my legs couldn’t bare it anymore, I promised him I could

and I would meet him in the late hours of the day at the grantham park but of

course my dad had to flip out…..

I had been waiting for 2 hours it was nearly midnight and he still hadn’t turned

up “ I WAS ANGRY”. I was waiting furiously tapping the keys on my phone, I heard sounds in

the bushes but didn’t acknowledge them, until I felt something sharp and heavy hit the back

of my head.

The next thing I know I’m lying in a bed listening to a guy telling

me that everything was going to be ok.

                                                       

The first time I saw him I thought he was an animal his hair greasy and slicked back,

his nails uneven and dirty, I was not proud of calling him my father,

and once again we were

in a fight but this time he got physical, Luckily Crystal came running into the house

saw my dad choking me and pushed him away screaming, “ DON’T YOU EVER TOUCH

HIM AGAIN” she slams him into the wall grabs my arm and pulls me away she says to me

“ Why didn’t you defend yourself Kyoya “ Kyoya responds with “ I couldn’t hurt my father”

okay I understand but you need to start defending yourself because one day I'm not going

to be there to protect you, anyway” have you seen Hadley today” “no I have not” “in fact

I haven’t

talked to her at all this week'' `` oh that’s weird she's not answering her phone”.

Unfortunately I was unable to finish my story but I hoped you enjoyed

reading my story as much as I did with creating it.😁
