He gave me hope

I felt alone in the world, no one would ever love me,I was worthless.

One day in school I was sitting in the back corner when the new guy everyone was talking about walked in. He gave off this dark, mysterious, vibe.
He scanned the room his dark eyes landing on me, I tried to scoot farther into my hoody and cover the bruises, it felt as he could see right through it.

-------------------------- My mom always told me, smile and you'll get through it, I wish she was here to tell me that now. She died eight years ago along with my twin sister, my other half, when I was seven, I wish they'd come back. My dad ever since then has lost his mind, he says I look just like my mom and that he wished it was me that died instead. He married again, to the most evil person you could ever meet, she despises me. Once they passed, we moved and now we're here, caught up.........

This is my story, the story of Maple Tanner.
