I knew this day would come. The day my nieces asked why she didn't have a mother or a father. I just didn't think it would happen on the third anniversary of their death. Heidi was a good friend and I knew she would have been a great mother. Demetri was the best future brother in law a girl could ever have and would have been father even better than he was a friend. But because of me being an idiot and trying to save myself from being killed, they were never going to be the great parents I knew they would have been. Alec tried to blame himself but I wouldn't let him.
"Auntie Alyssa, please, please tell me why don't we have a mommy," Sophia and Thalia begged.
I looked at Alec and he nodded at me. He sat next to me and put Sophia on his lap.
"It all started five years ago, in a town in New Jersey called Cherry Hill," Alec started.
"It was a normal day and at the time normal for me was painful, my boyfriend Derek was abusive," I continued.
"What does abusive mean?" Sophia asked reminding me they were only five.
"When someone is really mean and hurts another person they supposedly love," Alec explained.
"Okey dokey," Thalia giggled.
"It all started when my ex boyfriend Derek came to my house to get me for school."
My name is Alyssa Blake, I've lost a lot in two years including two important variables in my life. If your reading this I'm explaining to my nieces why they don't have parents and I hate to say it, but it's my fault they don't have parents. My name is going to Alyssa Volturi and this is my life really began.
