I Did. I Shared a House with my Cuzin My aunt and uncle. I used there bathroom cuz it was better. i went in the bathroom. I took a shower and did my business. But then my uncle walked in. i Was scared of what he was doing. He asked for his toothbrush. i Said okay. then he opened the screen door all the was. he looked at me and i was terrified. i didnt know what to do.. He started touching me in my private area. He grabbed a towel and grabbed me and threw me on my bed. He opened my legs and i was soaking wet. e opened my legs and started putting his finger in my private part. Then he started doing thing thats i think are unmentionable. Then he stopped and walked away. i ran into my dads room and started hurting myself and throwing my self on the bed. I got dressed and cried for hours. i was scared... really scared. he came in the room and i was terrified wondering what he was going to do. He came up to me and said you pinky promise you wont tell anyone what happened. and i did.
