" I had a loving mother and a hardworking father. One day, when we all gathered in our house to welcome our new member of the family. My beautiful baby sister, I was so happy to have a sibling. Mom would always be busy with her flower shop, and my dad was always away for work. "
" My mom gave me a chance to name her, so I did. I named my loving baby sister Grace. May you always be favored and blessed by fairy godmother Grace. "
" Grace grabbed my finger, and her hands were so small. I promised myself that I would always protect her. "
" But fate had other plans. That night, I woke up to the sound of someone arguing. I was startled, so I peeked out of the half closed door. "
" You fucking whore I was away and you fool around with another man that child isn't even mine ! " I was startled when I heard my father. I was waiting for my mom to deny it.
" So what if I did you always work and aren't here for the family ! " My mother screamed. " I had to work to support that family ! Get rid of that child ! " I didn't know what to do after I heard that. My world just froze, I froze. I didn't listen any further than that. My mind went blank.
There's no way my mother would do that, right ? Right !?
I ran through the hallway to my parents' bedroom where Grace was. I closed the door so the sound wouldn't wake Grace up. Tears started falling down my face as I looked at my baby sister. I remembered how I promised to protect her so in that moment I decided to run away with her. But not now my parents are here and I won't be able to escape them if they decided to chase me.
I didn't sleep all night as I forced myself to stay awake and wait until they finished arguing after they went back to their room I snuck out to the kitchen and took sleeping pills out I quietly broke them to pieces as small as possible and mixed all of them in the tea that they will drink next morning. I steered it and made sure it wasn't visible. After I was done, I went back and layed down to sleep.
" Wake up, Nata ! " my mom said with her usual sweet voice waking me up. We both went downstairs to the dining room that was connected to the kitchen.
My father was already sitting there eating his salad while drinking his tea. " Good morning, Nata. "
" Good morning, dad. " I couldn't smile at them like I did before. " What's the matter ? " dad asked me. " Bad sleep, " I replied.
" It will be fine if you take an afternoon nap. Talking about bad things, this tea tastes a bit weird. " When dad said that I tensed up, but I still tried to keep my straight face and act naturally.
" That's why I'm boiling this water here, I will make a new tea with it. By the way, I'm making cookies in the oven, and they will be ready soon." My mom said while sipping the tea and looking through the magazines.
Not long after drinking the tea, they fell face front on the table. After I saw that they were asleep, I quickly ran up stairs down the hall to my parents' room.
I reached out for he door knob when I realized it was locked. Mom always locked the bedroom after I broke the vase there. And a few other things. Their room is full of breakable things as a decoration. So she always locks it.
Not wasting any time I ran back and quickly searched moms pockets and a few other places where she might have hidden the key. I didn't find it anywhere, and I was getting desperate. Since I don't know when they would wake up. Just at that moment, I remembered we had spare keys to everything, and they were in our backyard shed.
Without hesitation, I ran out of the house to the shed when I entered it it was dark since the shed had no windo. I feeled out the light switch that was on the wall to my right.
I searched for the keys since I knew they must be somewhere. It took quite, and by every second, I was getting more and more annoxious.
I finnaky found the keys on the top shelf. I tried to climb up the shelves, but they almost fell on me. So I found another method. I took a stick that was on the ground and climbed up the table, then I used the stickbto poke the the keys to fall down. It was a success.
I quickly jumped off of the table, grabbed the keys that were on the floor, and ran out of the wooden shed I was in.
When I was in, I was shocked to see my wooden house on fire. Without thinking much more, I read to the house to save Grace.
It was really hot and hard to breathe. I quickly ran upstairs, down the hall, and I tried each key that could fit the hole to the bedroom. I was getting dizziness each second, but I didn't give up. In fact, I speeded up as I heard a loud noise from behind the door accompanied by Grace's crying.
When I finally unlocked the door, I flew in, grabbing Grace, and just as I was about to leave, some parts of the wooden ceiling fell on me. Grace was thrown out of my arms as I was pitted agents th ground with a pile of wood.
I was in a world of pain. My wings were burning. Grace was crying, and I couldn't do anything else, as I struggled to get out, but unsuccessfully while slowly losing my consciousness.
When I woke up again, I was in a clinic, and white water was connected to an infusion that was some white liquid. I'm guessing it's the essence of our mother.
After everything came back to me, I started crying. It's all my fault. Only if I wasn't so stupid It wouldn't have come to this.
I was drowning myself in self-pity and guilt.
