Dear Diary,
You know that little bit of Light that I've been hoping for? It still hasn't come yet. But I'm going to keep hoping, like Mommy always says to do.
Speaking of Mommy, she and Daddy fought yesterday. But oh, please don't be mad, diary, but I was... Well.... Happy that they fought!
Well, not exactly happy, but not sad. In the middle. Because this time, they weren't fighting about me! I am very happy - I'm so used to hearing them scream about money for me, and even though I'm only six, I still feel bad for all that I've caused them. Maybe they would've be happier without me, happier if I had just died like everyone else that came to the hospital.
Also, Diary, I might've mentioned this before, but I haven't been feeling well. And is getting worse. The pains in my head are real bad, and I just.... Feel sick. I know I should probably go to the hospital again, but no! I don't want to! I can't have Mommy and Daddy fighting about me again, and I can't give the kids more reasons to call me names.
Ever so Defiantly,
Nix.
