Dear Daddy,

Why do I bother writing anymore? Wait I remember now. Its because I love you but I wonder if you even love me back. Probably not. Even if I tried to stop loving you, I wouldn't be able to do it.

Tomorrow is the bid and I don't think I'm ready for this. Nor will I ever be. No girl my age should have to go through this! This is a little bit private but I haven't even gotten my first period yet and I'm having to go through this.

Will it be as bad as Claudia said it was the first couple of times?

Save me.

Love Bella Rose Murray-Styles ❤️

I place it in the envelope carefully before giving it to Claudia. She smiles at me sadly before sitting next to me on the bed.

"Are you ready kiddo?" I shake my head 'no' before tears spring to my eyes.

"How do you do it? How are you so brave" I burst into tears and Claudia pulls me onto her lap. I wrap my arms around her neck and cry into her shoulder. She whispers soothing words into my ear while stroking my hair. After calming down a bit, I move off her lap and stare at her big green eyes.

"I'm not brave. You are the one who is getting me through this. The reason I seem so happy all the time is because of you. You find the positive side of everything like when that flower I gave you died you picked it up and said 'it's in a better place now.' It's your kind heart that gets me through the day" I launch at Claudia and hug her tightly.

"My mum. I got it from my mum. She said that I got the stubbornness from my dad and my kind heart from her. She also said I was a spitting image of him" I wipe a tear from my eye and look at the ceiling.

"I bet your mum is looking down at you right now and she is thinking how she couldn't be any prouder of you right now. I love you Bella and don't you forget that" I hug Claudia again before standing up and leaving the room. I walk to the kitchen and see Troy standing there cooking.

"Hi Troy" he looks at me and smiles. Lately he has been cheery. It's starting to creep me out.

"There's my soon to be money maker! How are you doing kiddo?" He ruffles my hair and I push his arm away.

"Don't touch me!" I screech and he looks taken back. He smirks at me before taking a step closer to me.

"You can't touch me remember?" His smirk wipes straight of his face and one etches onto my face.

"Son of a bitch. Go shower" I nod and run to the bathroom before he attacks me.

I lock the door and get undressed. I look at myself in the mirror and sigh. My rib bones stick out and my cheeks are hollow. I'm skinny but not a healthy type. It's more like anorexia, but I'm not the one starving myself.

I sigh and step into the shower. I wash my hair and body before stepping out and drying. I change quickly and walk towards the kitchen. I see a plate of food there and I take it. I'm not looking forward to tomorrow.

I place the letter carefully into the 3rd shoebox filled with letters. I've read every letter ever since I got the first one. Every once and a while I go from the first shoebox and read through all the letters in order.

I rush out the front door and drive quickly to the flower shop. I grab the usual red roses before continuing to drive. Once I arrive, I walk slowly up to the gravestone. I place the roses in-front of the gravestone before sitting down next to it. I stare at it and sigh.

"I know I say this every time I come here but I regret ever leaving you Amelia. I just don't know what to do anymore. I don't know how to set things right. You were always the one to help me in these situations. I wish you were still here. I hope Bella has your kind heart. I was talking to one of your friends a few weeks ago and apparently she also got my stubbornness." I chuckle before continuing.

"But you know what? That's how you can tell that she is ours. Either way I will always love her. Once day I will find her Amelia and I will set things right. I brought you red roses because I know they are your favourite.

I love you Amelia" I wipe away a tear before walking back over to the car.
