I've always thought that I had the perfect life. I had a great family, great friends, and I was excelling in life. Then came a day where the some secrets spilled out. A day where people died. A day where my perfect life wasn't perfect anymore. 

That day my world flipped and went straight to hell. It only got worse from that day on. Whoever said that it has to get worse before it gets better, I have a question for you. Where's my better? After rain is rainbows, where's my rainbow? 

I had no one to protect me so I had to protect myself. Yes I may be in the Witness Protection Program but they can't protect me forever. I can't trust people I don't even trust myself sometimes. But if I didn't protect myself who would. My real name is Amanda James and you're reading my story.
