She's been living with nightmares since the death of her mother. Ever since her mother died three weeks ago, she's been seeing things, hearing things. No one knows, because she fears that they'll call her crazy, or admit her to an insane asylum. This is her secret, and her story. Sophia Lynn Grace Rhodes was normal. She lived with her mother, and two younger brothers after her father left when she was four. At 18 years old, her mother died in an attempted robbery of their home. Sophia, her brothers, and her half sister were staying with their grandparents the night of the occurrence. The death of her mother began a spiral of visions, of sightings and voices that Sophia believed only she could see. She kept it a secret, no one was to know about what she could see and hear. The piercing screams haunted her every night, ending only when she awoke, jolting from her sleep. Strangely, despite her insomnia and restless nights due to these screams, she's never felt more energized. She was determined to keep her secret just that, a secret, no matter how weird she was pegged as. She, her sister, and her brothers moved in with her grandparents following the death of her mother, and her grandma began acting strangely. It's just a coping mechanism, right? There's no way her grandma sees and hears what Sophia does, right?
