Prologue:


                                           Don't you wish you could freeze time in the moment?

                                                   Relive the moments that you dearly treasure?

                                                                 Hold onto the ones you love?

                                                                Perhaps trade a life for a life?

                                                                                       I do.


Once upon a time, we were happy. All of us. I have heard people say before that growing up in perfect households taints your perception on the evil out there. I guess for some time, I didn't believe a word they said. People were just jealous of us. We were one family. Proud and happy. Others were just jealous at how their relationship hit a nasty iceberg, causing it to sink. 


We didn't sink.


Well...at least I thought we didn't. 


After a while, I lost hope. I knew, I was trying to hold onto an unrealistic belief that we will forever, remain in the perfect household.


But we didn't.


I kicked and screamed till my heart was content, to stop someone from dragging me into the black abyss of the harsh reality. But what I didn't realise was, that we were doomed from the start.


The very start.
