They say that the people who are supposed to protect you from monsters turned to be monsters themselves. My mom and dad passed away 10 years ago in a car accident, and Aunt Maria became my guardian. A terrible guardian. I experienced emotional and physical abuse from her. I almost killed myself, but I thought of holding on. I thought of staying even though I was tired. That was when I started using my earphones as an escape. They told me that I was selfish, when in fact I wasn't. I sacrificed everything just to give them the things that they wanted. I think Aunt Maria changed Virnah, her eldest daughter. She was good to me, but her attitude suddenly changed when the evil words from Aunt Maria's mouth were inflicted into her mind. She has been manipulated. I remember when I was bullied when I was 11 years old by the mean girls in Crestview, and she protected me. She punched the girl with a gap between her two front teeth, and always wearing a pink fitted shirt and a skirt

Why do I lose everyone? Am I cursed? She came back to me, but she left so quick. I think I am cursed. Why does everyone leave you, if you keep them with you? That day when I saw her, I thought I wasn't going to lose her again, but everything happened so quickly. In a snap of a finger, she was gone. I still treated her like a sister even though she had changed because of her mother, and I waited for years for her to call me Fish sauce again, and it happened, but it was her decision to end everything. I couldn't blame her for that. I am glad that Aunt Maria is in jail now,while Rebecca and Kevin are in an orphanage. Virnah mentioned before that Aunt Maria was the least favorite of their parents. She always received punishment. Aunt Maria is the eldest and my mom is the youngest. Mom was the favorite and all the things she wanted were always provided, but Aunt Maria wasn't able to receive anything maybe because of her attitude. She poured her revenge on me. I felt bad for her when she w

Auggie's Chapter (Backstory) My name is August Manzano and I have Severe Combined Immunodeficiency or SCID. I have a low number of T cells-a type of white blood cells that make up the immune system to keep me from getting sick. I am not able to fight off germs. To protect me from infections, my parents isolated me and separated me from them. We are following a strict protocol during my isolation including limiting who enters the house that I am in right now and washing hands before entering and touching me. All my life I've been staying here without meeting new people. I wonder what the outside world looks like. I really want to go outside and swim in the ocean, and explore beautiful places as I see on TV and in magazines. I found a way to escape, not literally escape and leave the house, but to create a whole new universe inside my head. I spend the day with my earphones on and exploring the universe that I created. The universe that I believe is the reflection of the rea

"Find your partners, and we will be doing a treasure hunt," our camping instructor said. Theo went beside me. "Reign, are you okay?" he asked. "No," I replied. He hugged me. "I am so sorry that I left you alone," I said, crying on his chest. "It is okay Reign." August lied just to be with me and spend time with me. He even rented a house and enrolled in Crestview High. He had been diagnosed with a rare disease yet deadly, but he sacrificed his safety just to find me and explore the real world. Maybe it's true that I am cursed. That everyone leaves. If I lost Theo, I don't know what I am going to do with my life anymore. Auggie was isolated and unconscious in Crestview Private Hospital. I couldn't even see him in The Yarn. I miss him so much.

"You ready for today?" Theo asked. I just nodded. It is Cupid's day. We were wearing red shirts and red pants. We looked like menstruation. I was going to perform the song that I sang when I was with Auggie in the children's park. I hope Auggie is happy wherever he is. I wish someday, we would meet in The Yarn again."Let's go?""Let's go"Everyone was wearing red, it was like we were in a sea of blood. Some were wearing headbands with the photo of cupid. We went to the auditorium."There are lots of students here. Are you nervous?" Theo asked."Yeah," I replied, rubbing my hands because I felt so tensed. I have never performed in front of a crowd before."I think I am going to pass out." Theo gave me a bottle of water. I know, I am not a good singer, but I have a voice to show. The song was for August Manzano, the one that made me realize that love is real. They announced the first one who will perform, and it was Mark."What the heck?" Theo was confused. Everyone cheer
