Meleny's P.O.V
This year is going to be the start of something new. This year is my new start. The year that I show everyone who I really am. I'm tired of hiding behind an image that I hated that my parents made for me. I'm not sure why though and now I don't think I'll ever know now. Both of my parents are gone now. My father died when I was eight. We were at the park and heading for the swings. "Daddy after can we get ice cream."I had asked. He responded "sure sweetie." As we were walking he had seemed kind of worried. Then he had told me " Princess how about we play hide and seek in stead?" "Sure daddy, I hide and you count." "Okay but no matter what don't come out. Do you understand Mel?" "Okay daddy" I went and ran to my hardest hiding place. Nobody has ever found me when I hid there. As I hid in my secret place I looked towards my father. He was speaking with a man I had never seen before. The man seemed to be we'll not so friendly with my father. He had grabbed my father by the arm and dragged him somewhere more private. I got out of my hiding place and followed them secretly. All those spy movies I saw helped. He had led my dad to a secret little ally. I watched from behind a parked car. The guy was basically yelling at my father now. "where is she? Where is the girl?" I flinched as afterwards he had slapped my father. I had to bite my tongue so that I wouldn't make a sound. My father simply responded "I don't know what your talking about I'm just a guy in the wrong place at the wrong time. Maybe you're mistaking me for someone." "Don't play games with me David Moreno!!! You are her father her guardian!" I saw him pull something out but I couldn't make out what it was. He moved back a little and was pointing it at my father the second It hit the light I noticed it was a gun. I didn't notice that a few tears had escaped. He told my father "You have one more chance to tell me where she is." "I told you already I don't know anything." The guy seemed to have anger issues. He stepped closer to my father and whispered something into his ear. "She is the chosen one and I will get her one way or another." Then he shot my father. He left my father there and left. As soon as I saw that the coast was clear I went to my father I didn't know what to do. I wanted to help but I didn't know how. I immediately ran home to get my mum and my brother and sister and they called for help but it was too late. Then my mother died just last year. She died from a car crash. It was late at night and she was driving home and some drunks going to the club ran a red light, therefore,crashing into my mothers car. Since none of my sibling were old enough to watch over the rest of us we had to live with our Aunt Jenna. Thankfully it wasn't a big move because she lived in our hometown but I still had to go to a new school. Luckily my best friend Harry was transferring with me and he lived near by. Even though our aunt Jenna loved us my siblings and I thought of it as just us. I'm the youngest out of three. Jason is the oldest he's 17 and Marlene is 16. And me??? We'll I'm 13. They let us live in our home until the school year ended but our aunt had to come and stay with us. Now it's summer break and we have to go live at her house. Aunt Jenna had already been sending our thing little by little overtime. When we moved in with her there wasn't much more to do except explore.
