(Blanche's P.O.V)

Dear: Diary

I am only writing in this thing because Shep Huntleigh told me I should to calm my nerves. The only thing that can calm my nerves is a nice bath. Unfortunately Shep only let's me bathe once week he says he has to let all his patients get cleaned up now and then. He has this weird habit of calling his houseguests his patience. Well I guess we all have our quirks right. He has lot of houseguests some of them stranger than others. It gets so crazy here sometimes but it nowhere as bad as living at my sisters. Now don't get me wrong I adore my sister, I really do. It's just that place was so small and that husband of her's was such a brute. I tried to get along with him, Diary honest I did. I tried to get comfortable with him, I tried to tease him and flirt a bit with him. But that Stanley had such a temper he would always take what I was saying in the worst possible way. He would hit my sister and break stuff when he got angry. I tried to convince Stella that Stanley was bad news but she was to blinded passion, She just wouldn't listen to reason. I thought could possibly marry Stanley's friend Mitch. He was so nice to me. It didn't work out though. I don't quite understand why but I am sure it had something to do with Stanley, as if ending things with me and Mitch wasn't bad enough Stanley decided to attack me. I felt so violated, it was horrible Dairy, and horrible I tell you. After that the very sound of his voice frightened me and make things worse my sister wouldn't believe me. I had locked myself in the bathroom where it is safe. Then Shep came to pick me up but I didn't know it was Shep because I was so confused and hadn't seen him for such a long time. I got so scared but Shep clamed me down. It took me a few days to realize I was Shep's house. It's not as glamorous as I had imagined living with Shep but at least I am not living at my sister's.
