Uncle found me asleep on mother, he slowly lifted me up, thinking I was still asleep when really I wasn't, he took me home, went back to the house and gathered my items.
Mother and father were buried under the maple tree in out backyard, with an angel marker.
I had never felt so alone in my whole life. I loved Uncle, but mother was mother, she can never be replaced.
Uncle took me to the country, he said we'd be safer. The men didn't know about me, so I should keep it that way.
When I was 12 they found me, I was at school and they tried to kill me while walking home, luckily my Uncle had me keep a gun and I shot first, it feels terrible killing someone. What of he had a child?
After that occurrence my Uncle kept me home and homeschooled me, but most of the things he taught I already knew. Finally he stopped teaching since he didn't know what else to do.
"You are very smart" he said one day "your mother is proud, she watching you right now from the heavens."
That must have been the first time I smiled in 7 years.
