Chapter 1
Mina POV
Hi I am Wilhelmina AKA Mina Alizabeth Crimson. I am twenty years old but when this happened I was seventeen.Hmm.. I am trying to say my height but can't remember it, pathetic right? Oh,well I think I am four ten but I have this weird cherry coloured hair NATURAL of course. I am the eldest child of five children P.S taking care of them was a drag. Well, that was when my mother and therapist decided to throw me into that hellhole AKA Williams house for mentally unstable teenagers just because I saw a knife in a paint splat photo. Pity right? You know when a mother loves you they provide you toys, clothes, a loving home, you know some TLC but when my mother shows me love she sends me to a mental hellhole. So when you say you have it bad when they won't buy you what you want look into my situation then compare stories. Which one would you prefer, a mother who doesn't buy you whatever you want or a mother who sends you to a mental home? Whatever I suspect you don't want to hear this so I will go on with the story from where they left off.

Mysterious 3rd person POV
"Mom, are you mad at me?" The girl said."No dear I am just doing what's best."The girl was curious to find out what she meant so she asked "What are you talking about,Mother?". Her mother was driving so she had not answered that question. "I guess we'll talk about it at home right,Mother?" "Yes, Mina. We will." They pull the car into the driveway and they both exit the car and then make their way into the house to be greeted by the girl's twin brother. "MINA!!! Why you leave me with those monsters?!" cried her twin brother. "James,use proper grammar next time please. I was busy at school I tried to get home earlier but it took longer than I expected so I had mom pick me up. So, I am sorry you had to put your big boy boxers on and take care of the 'Monsters'.The boy stared at the floor obviously feeling very uncomfortable "Well, You'd be happy to know Minney, Mike, and Serenity were fed, bathed, and put to sleep." the boy flashed a big smile at his older twin and mother. "Thank you, James I appreciate it very much but me and mom have to talk. So, if you don't mind can you please go to your room?" "Yeah, I guess so night Mina" He kissed the crown of her head in a brotherly way while she gave him a hug goodnight. Her mother quickly closed the door so she could dampen the sound of her yelling. "MINA ALIZABETH CRIMSON, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!" "I felt like I needed to talk about what was happening in my life, is that okay?" " No, it's not you had me and your father." " No, I didn't. You guys would never listen it made me feel like I was talking to a wall." "Well, I'm sorry you feel like that but me and your father have more important things to do than listen to our delusional daughter!" The girl's mother was furious with her daughter's actions. "I knew it, I knew it, you never cared about me all you cared about was your job and the other kids but where was I in that category?" Her mother stayed silent but her daughter was furious with her mother's opinion of her. " Answer me!! I need to hear you agree with me cause I have a gut feeling that all the "love" you showed me was a bunch of crap. Am I right?" "Mina, you know that's not true now pack your things I have a solution to your behaviour." "Oh, I would gladly get away from this hellhole even if it meant going to a mental home. Speaking of which I read the card, I can read you know and I would hate to see you cry when you drop me off so don't even think about shedding crocodile tears in front of all those people because I know you are screaming joy right now." "Mina, pack your bags now!" "Gladly, and while you're at it yell louder and wake up the kids for me." The girl went to her room which she and her twin brother share. She turned on the light to the room and then she made her way to her brothers bed then she shook his shoulders gently to wake him up. "James,I gotta leave. I love you and please take care of the little 'Monsters' for me." "Mina, what are you talking about? Where are you going?" "Somewhere, where they can help me." "Help you? What the hell are you talking about you had me, mom, and dad what else could you need?" The boy said while sitting up. "You don't understand I never had mom and dad I only had you and myself." "Mina, if this is what you want go ahead but if I didn't know any better I would say that part of you wants to stay. Am I right?" "Yes, you are but I might get the help I need in order to get my self confidence and dignity back because I know mom just took that away." "Mina, please stay for me and your other non- important siblings." "Fine, I will stay but just know that I will make you help me with the kids. Well, goodnight I hope you have better dreams than I will." she slipped into bed but not even after ten minutes the door opened to reveal her mother with dangling car keys "Are you ready to leave this 'Hellhole'?" "I have changed my mind I decided to stay for my twin and other siblings not for you." "Oh, it's to late for that I already have you registered into the house so pack your bags or I will pack them for you. Choose." "Can I say goodbye first?" "Nope, sorry kid but I already told them that their big sister is going into the looney bin." "You know what I am tired of this. Get out of my way." The girl was trying to see her other siblings but her mother was blocking her way. Her brother finally spoke up. "Mom, Mina was right you are a bitch no piss poor act can cover it up." "James,stop there is no point in defending me I am leaving because I don't have a choice." "I will help you pack." " Please help her she is a wreck I bet you she has razors to prove it." "Shut up, I don't want to hear you insult my sister." "Just leave me alone, Audrey" The girl fell to her knees and covered her face with her hands while her brother held her head to his chest. The children's mother left her to pack. Her brother started folding and packing her clothes while the girl packed her toiletries and her special teddy bear from her brother named Rosie because she had a rose bow tie and her fur was a nice rosy pink hence the name Rosie. Once they were done packing she started to cry hysterically. " Remember, I am always with you" he said as he pointed to the teddy bear and slipped something into her hand. The object was so peculiar; it was a raven shaped pendant strung on black lace. She gasped then said "James, this was great grandma's gift to you. So why would you give it to me if it was meant for you?" "You needed it like great gram said 'it's never a bad thing to have a raven on your shoulder watching over you' so I figured I would represent that raven in gram's saying with the pendant on gram's necklace." "Thank you, James I really needed the support and you gave it to me in a simple gift." The girl put it on and grabbed her suitcase and went out to the car and gave a quick hug and a kiss to her brother and put her suitcase in the car then froze but her mother pulled her into the passenger seat.
