*3rd person POV*
Amelia was only 5 years old when her world started crumbling around her.
Her and her father had always been close, he taught her everything she needed to know like how to use a gun and how to ride a bike. Amelia always saw her parents a the perfect couple, they very rarely fought with each-other and, they would get each-other random gifts. "It doesn't need to be an occasion for me to get a gift for my special lady" Amelia would often hear her father say when he returned home, yet again, with another gift for her Mother. There was so much love there is what Amelia thought. What she didn't know is that her father had reasons for getting her mother gifts. It turns out he was cheating on {was that a thing back then. I don't know. Eh what the hell} her Mother and felt kinda guilty. Amelia kinda knew that there was something weird was going on since her father would "go to work" nearly everyday when he worked Monday to Thursday. The day after Amelia turned 5 is when her parents starting to argue. It was terrifying for Amelia. When they started shouting Amelia would run up to her room crawl under her covers and cry herself to sleep. She didn't understand what was going on and she was too afraid to ask.
One day (a couple of weeks before she turned 6) her parents arguing got so bad that she heard plates being thrown a lot of screaming which was mixed with her own sobs. She then heard the front door to her little slam shut. It was quiet. All Amelia could here was the sound of her own heartbeat. After a short while she heard a slight knock and her door as her mother walked through. She could tell she had been crying since her eyes looked red and kind of swollen and there was mascara down her face. In a calm voice she sat on the edge of Amelia's bed and explained to her that her father was a bad man and that he had left us. Amelia couldn't believe it. Her father a bad man, no. Her father was the best man she had ever met. After a minute of silence her mother got up and slowly walked out of room before turning Amelia and saying "I am so so sorry baby. I will give you time to process it. I'll see you in the morning. Goodnight my Angel" After that her mother was gone leaving Amelia alone with her thoughts. She didn't know what to do so she crawled back under her cover and cried herself to sleep thinking about what her mother had just told her about her father.
