DISCLAIMER

Ok so there are three things that need to be addressed before this story begins.

READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED!
This book is pretty dark and deals with uses such as suicide, murder, mental health, domestic abuse, gun violence and self harm. If any of these topics make you uncomfortable or are not suited for you I wouldn't recommend this certain story (I will do my best to put warnings before every chapter for certain topics).

THIS IS 100% FICTION!
Before I'm bombarded by comments asking me if I'm ok or if I need help, I'd like to make one major thing clear, THIS IS NOT BASED OFF OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES AND THE CHARACTERS ARE NOT BASED OFF OF PEOPLE ON MY LIFE! I am privileged to have a healthy and stable home life and I absolutely love both of my parents. These people are not based off of anyone that I know but merely products of my somewhat dark imagination. (Honestly I watch way too many crime shows and horror movies lol) but please if you know anyone who happens to deal with any of these issues, please reach out and help them. You would be surprised to find out how many people struggle with these issues and I'm not trying to fantasize these topics but to weave a story to help others.

THIS STORY IS NOT MADE TO SCARE, DISTURB OR UPSET ANYONE!
I wrote this story not just because it's "dark" or "spooky" or to fantasize mental illness. I honestly hate it when people make mental illness seem like an excuse or some kind of attention grabber but I really wrote this story to SPREAD AWARENESS. I am trying to help people who don't deal with these still prevalent issues understand the other side of the spectrum and to sympathize and comprehend the dark reality of mental illness or any of the issues listed above. I sincerely hope this book doesn't upset people and if you have a complaint on how I handle the subject matter please kindly let me know so I can revise it. Once again, I have had a good home life and have never dealt with self harm or suicidal thoughts and I only have other books and movies to go off of which can sometimes prove unrealistic and unreliable sources, so if I am way off when illustrating these topics please feel free to correct me.

Lastly, I hope that this book can inspire others. I not only want to help people understand these difficult subjects on a deeper level but also to inspire people dealing with these issues to press on and to keep pushing through. I'm not going to lie, this book is going to be pretty sad as our main character faces difficult trials and traumatic experiences throughout this narrative, but in all narratives and in life there will be a happy ending. Even if it seems unlikely or impossible due to the circumstances, please understand that these things in our lives happen for a reason and that we grow from the things that once hurt us. So please read on and remember this. I hope you enjoy the story and I hope that everyone can take something away from this book in a positive and constructive way.

That being said, let's move on to the story...
