I hid myself inside my wardrobe to drown some of the noise out from downstairs. It was going on for hours and I was tossing and turning in bed, trying to block everything out. But nothing helped. The wardrobe doors seemed to amplify the horrifying noises coming from downstairs.

There was just pure screaming and shouting and throwing stuff around. The screaming was with a clear cut reason. In a word.... regret. Regret of meeting each other, regret of falling in love, regret of getting married and regret of promising their lives to each other.

So there I stayed, inside my wardrobe, wrapped up between the clothes trying to keep the cold out. I was still shivering and I felt that my lungs were going to give up any second now. My skin felt pale and my head felt heavy. There was a piercing ringing in my ear. I kept trying to get it out by humming to myself. All I was thinking about was how this all started.

Mom and Dad were the perfect couple, the perfect parents and were perfect for each other. We were a happy and content family. There was nothing more that I could ask for. But I guess nothing can be perfect for too long. And our time to become broken had come.

I was praying that my younger sister who was in the next room wouldn't be able to hear any of this. Her age was too tender to let her ears hear such violence. But I was just kidding myself. The walls were booming with the noises of our parents screaming and cursing at each other.

The moment I heard a bunch of glasses being thrown across the hall, and mom's shrill scream, I couldn't take it anymore. I ran to my sister's room to get her out.

There she was soundly sleeping. Sometimes I think that her ability to sleep through a thunderstorm, is a gift. I slowly woke her up.
"Anna! Savanna!!!! Wake up ok? We are gonna take a little walk to grandma's", I fake smiled.

"But it's still night time", she said, rubbing her little eyes.

" Yeah it is. But that's when grandma said that the unicorns come out right?", I said while tugging on her nightgown sleeve.

Her eyes instantly lit up and for a while, the noises that were still going on drowned away.

But I quickly snapped back into reality and dashed out the door with Savannah holding my hand.

Our hands were all sweaty and trembling, but I tried my best to not let go and make sure that I was holding on to her, tight.

Our feet were too tiny and we tripped on a few steps after getting tangled in our floor length night-gowns. But once I made it to the end of that staircase.....my lace hemline of my nightgown was soaked.... in thick red blood. And suddenly, the ringing in my ears started again and stopped within a spilt second. And there was complete silence. Too much silence......

Heyyyy peoples!!!! So ya, I said that I was gonna wait until this book reached 100 views for it's useless author's note. But I suddenly got an idea for what I was gonna put into the story, so I decided to write it before I forget it!!!

Don't count on a chapter 1 anytime soon, I have decided to go freestyle on my writing and write whenever I feel like it, cuz I have no time to plan and write properly. This means that the chapters won't be that long and the story won't be that elaborate as I would want it to be. But I don't wanna continue this drought of updates on my books.

So.... I hope you guys enjoy this book and support it. Cuz I always appreciate your reads, votes and comments. And once again, I apologise for being a crappy writer. 😊😊😊
