Braver than the world

Took A Turn

Belle's pov

I was about 11 when the incident happened. I lived in a small town where everyone knew everyone, and since it was so small news traveled along fast. I was sitting in my bedroom with my nanny because my parents went to buy me a present for my birthday, we lived in a 2 story cottege at the edge of the town I love looking at the view of the sunset from my room. It had been hours and my nanny was asleep so I decided to go outside to see if my parents were home yet, but instead I saw and heard a lot of commotion, I ran to the nearest person to ask what was wrong. She was aunt Shelly the owner of a small dinner near the library. "Miss Shelly, what's going on, what's all the commotion for?!" I shouted over all the noise people talking. "oh darling, I think it's best if you see for yourself" she said with a sorrowful look on her face. I pushed my way through the crowd to see, u stood frozen and I felt myself explode inside, I fell to the ground and sobbed so loudly I'm sure all the birds in the forest heard me. The town went dead silent and everyone stared at me, my nanny, miss Everly, ran and hugged me as we cried together. My parents were DEAD .
