AN: I got the idea for this from the Character Loft on LJ.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Harry Potter.
Five excuses for not telling:
1. Aunt Petunia said not to.
2. Uncle Vernon would kill me.
3. They're the only family I have left.
4. I deserve it.
5. No one would believe me anyways.
Four explanations for why it happens:
1. I am a burden.
2. I can never do anything right.
3. Freaks aren't worthy of nice things.
4. They're trying to help me. They punish me so I can learn to be good.
Three wishes for the future:
1. I want to be normal.
2. I wish they would love me.
3. I hope that one day I have a family of my own to love.
Two promises to live for:
1. I promise to stop doing freakish things.
2. One day, I will be a good boy.
One secret to keep:
1. My family hurts me.
