This story is mostly gonna be in Third Person unless I say otherwise. My Grammar and Spelling May be bad but I'll try my best.
Seven Years Ago:
Lanett has just turned 10 years old today, everyone in her family came up to her birthday party and it was best day of her life. She was able to see those whom she missed and eat cake. Lanett wanted this to last forever, but unfortunately there's only so many hours in one day. A few months later Lanett is near the end of her 4th grade year when her Grandmother became very ill. At the time her family had just taken in a toddler who she helps take care of. As weeks past more family members came down in order to be with her grandmother, Lanett got scared. Soon after her grandmother passed away, and she was consumed with darkness. Lanett wouldn't speak or eat, she lost a lot of weight and her doctor says it'll be hard to gain it back. Lanett's Family was angry and depressed also, so since Lanett was only one who wouldn't express her feelings the family decided to take it out in her. She'll never be the same again.

So that night Lanett has a dream and when she woke up her decision had been made. Lanett was gonna work hard to fight against her family and do what she had to do until it was time for her to move out and find the young woman she was meant to be.
