Chapter 1

TW-MINOR ABUSE

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear willow, happy birthday to you" Sang my friends as I cut into my 15th birthday cake. It wasn't exactly a normal 15th birthday but at this time I don't think many peoples birthdays are.

It is the 20th of February 1941 and I am now officially 15 years old. ugh finally. me and my friends all sit down onto the sofas and ate our cakes that had taken so long to save up for with our rations. "Oh goodness I had forgotten what cake tasted like" groans Lilia whilst trying to savour her slice, I snort with laughter as the other girls giggle slightly. Lilia's my best friend in the world, we've known each other for ever and barely ever fall out then there is Joan Smith, she wouldn't hurt a fly if her life depended on it. Alice Davidson, who gets all the boys, she's even had some of the army men after her! Lastly there is Louise LeRoy, she cracks you up without even meaning to half the time. There's the whole gang. Well most of the gang, some of my other friends were evacuated and most of the boys have been called up already.

As I reminisce and let my friends chatter wash over me I start to feel a tingling in my finger tips and panic starts to set in. Well you see I can do stuff, weird stuff, things that I can't control. One day I'll be able to read thoughts and the next day it'll be gone and then a month after that I will be able to move stuff with my mind. That's the scariest part. I don't know when its going to happen or even what's going to happen, I've managed to obtain it from my parents for now as they are firm church goers and will believe I am a devil or something evil like that (which I'm not, I think.) I hurriedly stand up and pretend to tidy away everyone's plates so I can get away and try and control but just as stand up straight my mother notices and beckons me back. "darling it's your birthday let me do all the work for today" she exclaims, beaming down at me. I force myself to smile back up at her and mumble a thank you. The tingling starts to become stronger in my fingers and just as my Mother try's to take my plates out of my hand all hell breaks loose.

Ice comes out of my fingertips and covers half the plate. Screams fill the air as my friends flee to safety not certain about what I have done. My mother drops the plates she was holding and backs slowly away from me. Father looks down on me with an expression mixed of fear and disgust I shrink under his glare until eventually he grabs an apron wraps it around his arm to cover any bare skin and roughly grabs my arm. I shout in protest as he drags me up the stairs, shouting profanities all the way "YOUR A WORK OF THE DEVIL IS WHAT YOU ARE" he shouts and sprays spit all over me which freezes as soon as it touches my skin. "please stop" I sob "I can't control it. Please it's not my fault" He doesn't say a word in response to my pleads and shoves me head first into my bedroom "YOU WILL STAY IN THERE UNTIL YOU CAN REPENT THE DEVIL OUT OF YOUR SOUL" he shouts at me in disgust. "Please father.." I start, rushing over to him on my knees "you are no daughter of mine" he exclaims and with that he kicks me away and shuts the door behind him.
