(Ellie's Point Of View):

Hello. My name is Ellie. I'm seven years old. I have long brown hair and big grey eyes. And I hate everything.

Okay, so maybe not EVERYTHING. I hate lots of things, let's put it that way.

I hate my mommy. She was awful. She would beat me, starve me, cut me, lock me in the closet, and always tell me what a bad girl I am. The lady at the police station told me that I'm not a bad girl. That I'm a very good girl. I wish someone would tell my mommy.

I hate living in this orphanage. Savvine, the lady who runs it, is really mean, and quite scary. I try to avoid her whenever I can, though from time to time she does make her appearance when I least expect it.

I hate the fact that my daddy is gone. I miss him so much! If he were here, I wouldn't have to live in this awful place, I could live with him!

But he's dead.

My daddy is dead.

I know it's not his fault. It was the disease, he couldn't do anything about it.

I love him so much.

Just thinking about him makes me tear up.

NO. ELLIE NO CRYING.

Only bad girls cry. And bad girls have to be punished.
