Dear Diary,
Hi! So, this is my first time writing a diary and I don't really know what to do... Oh, well. Mama said it would be good for me to start one if I don't feel like talking to her or Papa. Oh, right. Why would I feel like not talking to them, you must be wondering...
I... I have powers, Diary. Real. Powers! Crazy, I know. But you gotta believe me! So you're probably curious about how they work. Basically, I can control dark stuff. Shadows and all those creepy things. I can even, uh, kinda hide in the dark? Not like, some sort of ninja, no way- I can actually turn into a shadow! I do get burned by light while in that form though. Not cool.
Anyway, 'cause of these powers... I'm different than everyone! People call me a "freak" because of my pale skin and my eyes- Mama figured those... "Atributes" were affected by my powers. And, when everyone found out about them, they started picking on me! Mostly boys though. All the girls usually avoid me because I'm kinda creepy to them. The boys... They call me names. They sometimes light flashlights right in my face!
I hate it! I never asked to be born with powers! I once asked Mama and Papa where they came from, but Mama acted slightly... Off... Papa too, and they just told me that I'm too young and to go to my room.
I wonder what was that about? But I guess I'll have to wait and see...
Oh, I gotta go now, Mama's calling for dinner! I'll talk-write here later!
