Dear reader,

My name is Ashton Hemsworth.I present this letter to you because I want you to know the truth about Lavender Rose.

I met Lavender Rose in my early twenties.I worked for a big company,a company that had to produce new cellphones every year.And I was the one who had to think of new improvements we can add to phones and new designs and stuff.

I needed an assistant to help me with thinking,so they assigned Lavender Rose to come and help me.I first thought that her name was a joke but no,it wasn't.I then find out why her parents named her Lavender Rose,she smelled like Lavender and her hair smelled like Roses.

The first week,we came up with a brilliant plan.We came up with a fire proof,water proof and dust proof phone.The design was not that complicated but it was beautiful,just like Lavender Rose.We also decided that the colours must come in ash,lavender,rose and white.The big boss was happy,so the phone got released later that year.

I was by now 23,Lavender Rose and I were dating.It was our three month anniversary and I wanted to surprise her,so I bought the most beautiful and expensive ring I could find.I kneeled down on my knee and proposed,in front of the office people.My was Lavender Rose happy.

A few weeks before our engagement party,my mother died.I was so sad,luckily Lavender Rose was there to support me.The funeral was to be held two days before my engagement party,but I told them no,I still need to mourn for my mother.Lavender understood my sadness and respected my decision.

Exactly ten days after my mother's funeral,my dog,Fay,also passed on.I couldn't understand was the people or things I cared for leaving me behind because I sort of chose Lavender Rose and the company as my number one priority.

My engagement party was fabulous,as Lavender described it.That same sadness struck me at night when I was laying quietly next Lavender in bed.Then the ugly thoughts came.

I lost mom because of Lavender.

I lost mom because of my stupidity.

I were to blame for mother's death.

I lost mom because of my stupid career.

I lost both Fay and mom because of Lavender Rose.

I kept on blaming Lavender Rose and myself for my mother's death.I still wonder if they hadn't assigned Lavender Rose to me exactly three years ago,would Fay or mom still be with my today.

Two months went by and we had our wedding.Lavender was so beautiful in the Lavender coloured dress.The same smell of Lavender and roses still wafted through the hair.When I kissed her,it felt as if it was the first time I kissed her even though it was the hundredth time.

In the sixth month of our marriage,Lavender fell pregnant.We were happy,but the only thing I hated was her mood swings.I even had forgotten about mood swings since my eldest sister,Adele,fell pregnant.And at that point I was 16.

The baby was delivered eight months later,it was a baby girl so we named her Daisy.In her high school years,she met a boy named Liam.I really liked that boy but Lavender hated him.When it was Daisy's twelve year in high school,Lavender and I got divorced.Seventeen years of marriage to waste!

One day,while Daisy and I were watching a show on tv (Daisy was ill that day and could not go to school),we heard the door slam open.Lavender came in and stabbed Daisy in the heart.I tried to rush to her aid but Lavender also stabbed me,in the back and in the chest.Later on that day,no one came to our aid,instead the next day,I was already a spirit.I saw Liam walking in,looking pale and I could see the sadness in his eyes.He shook Daisy at her shoulders,but she did not awake.He then dialed the ambulance.

They stated that we were dead for more than seven hours.I was hurt that Liam was hurt over the death of Daisy which was caused by Lavender Rose.

I later on learned that Lavender Rose was a killer,a smart one at that.She is not dead,whenever she kills someone,she drinks up their blood,and lives longer each time.

Beware of Lavender Rose dear readers,she is not who she claims to be.This is my final warning.I have to rest in peace now,I couldn't without letting you know.

You now know the truth.

Goodbye.

Sincerely
Ashton
