What was I supposed to say? Besides, I know Hank would have to sign forms for that any type of counseling and that is not a good idea. Asking Hank for anything does more harm than good. My plan is simple: keep my head down, graduate high school, go to college. Preferably before he kills one of us.
The evenings are pretty repetitive. I cook dinner, Hank drinks, I do housework until he passes out, and then I do my homework. I applied to a few colleges at the end of last year and even got an early acceptance to the community college across the river.
When I graduate, I want to run as far and as fast as I can. I finish cleaning up the mess in the kitchen and bring the whiskey bottles in from the car. The whiskey here, even on special, had to have cost at least half of our food budget for the month. I once had several bruised ribs because there was no steak in the house when Hank got a craving.
It has been in the Miller family for as long as anyone can remember. Everyone knows Mr. Miller, and he greets pretty much every customer by name.
Apparently, if my lazy ass wants to work so badly, there are things that can be done at home. That bright idea caused me quite a bit of discomfort: Hank knocked me right out of my dinner chair and I ended up with a split lip when my face bounced off the table. Miller know that, although I appreciated the job offer very much, I would not be able to take it. He raised his eyebrows when he saw the cut on my face, but never said a word. I have a very long list of humiliating moments and almost every one of them is due to something Hank said or did.
I take a peek in the living room and Hank is out cold on the couch. I take a quick shower and throw some cover up on my face before I head to the store. Not in Library. Libraries near you: WorldCat.

Short overview about this book : The classic bestselling war memoir by the most decorated American soldier in World War II, back in print in a trade paperback Originally published in , To Hell and Back was a smash bestseller for fourteen weeks and later became a major motion picture starring Audie Murphy as himself.
More than fifty years later, this classic wartime memoir is just as gripping as it was then. Desperate to see action but rejected by both the marines and paratroopers because he was too short, Murphy eventually found a home with the infantry.
