"Sit down." I notion to the children they both look at me strangely Lilly rolls her eyes and James has a worried look. "I want to tell you both something." I announce they both have confused looks Lilly actually looks like she cares about what I'm about to say.
"When I was young, my father killed my mother and my siblings so I had to kill him and put one of my sisters out of her misery." I start to choke up "I then had to survive a year on the streets of England on my own that's when I decided to sneak my way onto a boat to Canada I killed a couple sailors, a cat, and a lot of chickens." We stay in silence for a couple minutes were they to young for this? "I should also tell you about your father." I break the silence they both look up at me with wonder.
"Are father?" Lilly mumbles
"Why isn't he here?" James asks
"The truth is, I didn't know your father he was a terrible man-?" I get cut of my James
"did you kill him?" He asks
"Yes I did, but he gave me you two before I could kill him I'm not glad that it happened but I am glad he gave me you two." I answer back.
"So we were mistakes?" James starts mumbling but then he bursts into tears. Lilly puts her hand on his back while he sobs into his hands "I'm so sorry." I whisper starting to cry.
"How fucking could you?" Lilly hisses
"What?" I ask knowing what she said
"I fucking hate you!" she yells
"Why do you hate me? I love you!" I yell back
"You obviously didn't want us!" she screams and runs up to her room.
I don't know what to say I'm speechless. I remember that I haven't eaten for three days I run to the dinning area I find half a carrot laying on the ground I don't care I'm really hungry. I turn around and I see James
"I know you still love us." He mumbles
"I do I really do." I start to tear up I pull him into a big hug.
"I love you so much." I mumble.
I hear a knock on the door a couple minutes later I leave James sitting on the couch. I open the door just a crack to see who it is, it's John I open the door wider.
"Hello?"
"Why hello,my lady, what seems the matter?" He asks
He can probably see my red puffy eyes. I let him in and he looks at James and smiles.
"Ugh! what does he want?" James yells and gets up he runs up the stairs.
"That was rude." John grumbles and sits down.
"He's just really emotional right now." I break the silence.
"Why what's wrong?" He asks
"I told them about their father." I blurt out
"What? Why did you say that? How could you so fucking stupid!" He yells at me.
"How dare you! don't call me fucking stupid!" I yell back.
"I'll fucking call you what I want stupid bitch!" He yells back.
"Watch your fucking mouth!" I scream at him.
"Why don't you ever do that? Do you ever think before you speak?" he yells again.
"I had to tell them, I couldn't lie to them!" I scream again.
"Why couldn't you?" He starts to speak a little more calmly.
"They deserved to know!" I continue to scream at him.
Without saying anything he does something I thought would never happen. He fucking slaps me.
"What the fuck was that!" I yell holding my left check where he slapped me
"I'm don't know!" He mumbles
"What the fuck do you mean you don't know! You fucking slapped me!" I scream even louder this time.
I'm sor-" He tries to say but I pick up my knife and I start walking toward him.
"You never slap me!" I yell lunging at him with my knife but I end up just cutting his face but something pulls me back.
"Stop mother!" Lilly screams holding holding my hands.
"I still love you, just don't hurt John!" She yells a little quieter she starts to tear up.
"You don't understand!" I yell but she just ignores it. She sits me down and I start sobbing.
"I'm sorry John." I mumble in my hands.
"I'm sorry to." He whispers. Lilly cleaned up his face she runs right back up stairs.
"Follow her." I whisper to him "now!" I add but saying it louder he gets right up an he does as I say.

John's POV
I walk up the stairs as Anne says I do forgive her for cutting me I really shouldn't of slapped her. I follow Lilly to her room she doesn't seem to notice me so when she closes the door I make sure it's open just a crack. I look threw the crack and all I see is her on the floor crying I really want to console her but she gets up to grab something. She sits right down with something that looks like a knife. I instantly get worried what is she doing? I see her putting it to her skin I see blood trickling out that's it! I'm not letting this happen! I slam open her door.
"What do you think your doing?" I yell at her.
"John I-" I cut her off.
"Why are you doing this to yourself?" I ask her trying to fight off the tears.
"Because no one loves me!" she blurts out.
"We all love you, what are you talking about?" I ask kneeling beside her.
"I'm not loved, no one cares." She starts to cry.
"We love you, we care." I hug her.
She says nothing so I take her knife and leave.
"She harms herself." I sigh as I walk down the stairs.
"I know, why is she doing it?" Anne asks
"She thinks no one loves her." I answer Anne just gives me a sad look.
"Why?" She starts to cry.
I walk up to her and I hug her.
"I think you should leave." She asks me I understand. I walk to the door I give her one more sad look and I leave.
