"The birthday party her parents held for her was in a quiet park. It was the three of them and a private catering crew. To keep it short, her parents had completely failed. She said she sat in her seat the entire time watching them and listening to their endless phone conversations. If they weren't talking about business between themselves, their phones would ring and they would talk about work on the phone instead.
"She watched their ignorance in front of her very own eyes. She witnessed it. She saw and felt her unworthy self in their presence this time. They didn't even compliment her on what she looked like, though she had spent an endless amount of time trying to prefect her appearance in order to meet their expectations. It was a mistake for her to meet them. I just didn't realize it at the time. I didn't realize that keeping reality under the table is a million times better than putting it on top for her to eat up.
"Her whole life, she had been a mentally unstable person. She wasn't your normal child, your average teen. She saw things from a completely different perspective. She was a strategist, but at times that was a bad thing. Her mind was filled with anguish she wished she could express, but pride would always come in the way.
"She was an angry girl, and that's the worst way for a girl to be. She was a humiliated child, and that's the worst way for a child to be. She wanted relief. She wanted a normal family, but her parents were by far the worst parents who devoid of all love languages. They shouldn't be parents. To her, it was only then that she realized..."
"When her parents finally paid attention to her, they did so by breaking the good news. In a little under a month Fayth was going to be a big sister. Her mother's pregnancy was not showing on her, so the news hit Fayth hard. She congratulated her parents of course, and said she couldn't wait to meet her little sister.
"One of the bigger balloons in the birthday decorations popped in the sun. While completely startled, her mother went into panic. Her water broke, and immediately put her into labor. She started screaming, saying, "The baby is coming out! The baby is coming out!" I don't know what she was thinking, but before anyone could react, Fayth jumped into her car and yelled for her parents to hurry and get in. That she knew where the closest hospital was.
"Her parents quickly got in the car and Fayth took off. She told me later that she had been holding it all in. Her parents ignorance displayed right before her, her mother's idiocy for trying to bring another human into their miserable life to thoroughly suffer. How dare they even think of bringing another person to live a life like Fayth's. She was infuriated by the mere thought of it. Let alone letting it happen. She would never let anyone else taste from the agonizing glass she had been sipping from. Especially not a sibling.
"When she drove off that cliff, and as the car rolled down the hill, she didn't just want to end her life, simply from being too exhausted living it. She wanted to end her parents, who were heartless, merciless, and who didn't give a damn about their own daughter. She wanted the innocent baby to not come out only to get tormented like she had been. She was committing suicide as well as murder. In that moment, she was as good as gone. Mentally unhinged from life, from sanity. She just didn't feel like a living being. Her parents never treated her as one, so she never saw herself as one either.
"She was the only one who survived that massive car crash, getting out with only a scar on her forth finger after a surgery restructuring the partially crushed bones. When she woke up in the hospital, she temporarily lost her memory. She didn't even remember me. When I brought her back home, weeks later, she slipped and fell, and her memory came back in a single blow to her ignorant state of being. She was so shocked, so traumatized by what she had done, that she had practically driven herself insane."
