Dear diary,

Mommy kept tapping my shoulder, trying to wake me this morning. She keeps whispering, "Ruby, darling, wake up," but I kept sleeping instead.

I'm starting to be really scared of mommy now. She won't stop bothering me and she's a killer. I didn't realize how bad this was until she killed those three kids on the bus right in front of me!

"Ruby, you must wake up! We have more work to do, you can't sleep all day!" Mommy kept telling me.

I finally told her I didn't wanna do this anymore.

"Mommy, I don't want to kill people anymore! Killing is a bad thing, and I am still sad about Patty, Sidney, and Joey!" I said.

But mommy seemed mad now. "Stop feeling so bad for them! They were harassing you! I was just trying to protect my little girl."

I didn't say anything and went back to sleep. She dragged me by my arm and I fell out of bed.

"Don't be so ungrateful! I am your mother and you're going to listen to me and do as I say!" She screamed, but when I looked up, she was gone.
