章 1: CH 1 KINDLING THE PAST

2 years ago I had left Silverston after my dad got framed for murder. I eventually lost contact with all my friends here. even in Ohio, I have no friends except my sister Hope. my mom was living with her boyfriend who got drunk every day. she had threatened me that if I did not go with her she would hurt my sister. all she wanted was the money me and hope inherited from dad. this money was frozen until we were 20 so she thought that after we were 20 she could get this money for taking care of us. every day with my mom was like a day in hell. but now we know that dad was out of prison and living freely. I had made my plans to escape the place tonight along with my sister Hope.
