I ran for who knows how long.
I saw a house, and then I passed out.
I was found and taken to the hospital.
I was exhausted and traumatized, and fell into
a coma for a few hours.
I woke up early the next morning.
The villagers had called the police, and I told
them everything.
く
The police found Tiffany’s body in the
abandoned building, and Dustin was there,
holding her, not saying a word.
Dustin was arrested.
He was involved, he was going to prison.
My parents and the Harrisons came to the
hospital.
They heard about Tiffany, and all the anger disappeared, they were heartbroken, they cried, and pretended to be strong for me.
After Dustin was arrested, his parents asked me to help him, for the sake of our childhood.
But I was bitter.
<
I couldn’t forgive what he’d done to me.
I wouldn’t be cruel, I’d let the law handle it.
With everything going on, my school work
suffered.
After I got out of the hospital, I caught up.
Two months later.
The test results came out, and I got into the school I wanted.
On the first day, I saw Brandon at the school.
He winked at me. “We meet again, I’ll be here for the next four years!”

V:
Sometimes I think about Dustin.
If he hadn’t met Tiffany, he would have gone
to Harvard by now.
Tiffany gave him something new, but she
dragged him down, he was going to be full of
regret and pain for the rest of his life.
I was getting closer with the Harrisons, I
would go stay at their house for a few days a
month.
And I never forgot my adoptive parents.
I had two sets of parents who loved me, I was
happy.
く
I’m going to be happy for a long time!
The darkness will eventually be replaced by
light.
You have to pay the price for the choices you
make.
Now, my future is bright, and I’m going to
walk forward without hesitation.
The End
Bonus: Jillian’s POV
I had a dream.
My sister stole my fiancé, then caused an
accident and killed me.
After I died, she got all of my parents‘
attention.
She became the princess everyone loved.
I woke up in a cold sweat.
Thinking about my sister’s hatred, I shivered.
At first, I thought it was just a dream.
Then I found my sister flirting with my fiancé.
Remembering that dream, I felt a sense of
fear.
I remembered that my sister had never looked
like us, or acted like us.
く
And then I started to wonder.
I secretly tested her and Dad’s DNA.
I was right.
She wasn’t my sister.
Years of fighting made sense.
I found the hospital where Mom had given
birth, and through some investigation, found
Abigail.
Her family helped me confirm she was my
sister.
I felt relieved and happy.
く
She’d always taken everything from me, my
parents were worried about her, they’d aged
and their hair turned gray.
I wanted to teach her a lesson.
I never thought she’d kidnap someone, and
end up hurting herself.
Tiffany was dead, and my parents were sad
for a while.
But with me and Abigail, they got through it.
We were a family again, and we had a bright
future!
Some people are broken, and will always be broken, trying to fix them will end up hurting
you in the end.
