Dear Daddy,
I graduated high school today. I missed having my real father there, but John came. Daddy and Mom came to graduation with my little brother and sister, Brennan and Lana. It's hard to believe it's been ten years since Daddy and Mom got married. It seems like they just met. The two still act like newlyweds. It's kind of adorable. I've been packing for college. That was when I found my old journal. I barely remember writing in it. Everything seems so long ago.
Jack was an entire lifetime ago. Mom and Daddy have hardly even thought about it. I still think about Jack sometimes. I finally understand everything that happened in my childhood. It happened when I was thirteen. I was doing a research papers about serial killers and Jack came up on the Internet database. Then, I asked my parents about Jack and they told me the story. I got a 100 on that paper.
Life was pretty uneventful during my teenage years. It was probably making up for my childhood years. Mom and Daddy kept working for the VCTF. Uncle Bailey eventually went back to Maryland with Frances. John took over the VCTF when Bailey left. I never would have thought that Daddy would have wanted to run things. Nathan stayed in Colorado with his wife. Angel married a really hot guy named Alec six years ago. The two run an art studio now. I kept writing my stories. I worked on the school newspaper and became co-editor with Marina. Marina has been my best friend through everything and now we're going to different colleges. I'm going to miss her as much as I'll miss my family. Brennan is just now nine and Lana is only six. They're so young and I'm not going to be around much. I'm going to New York University to become a novel writer. Hopefully, everything will go as planned. Maybe this will be my first book. A journal of an eight-year-old girl living under a serial killer's eye just might sell, though many would think it was fiction. Only my life. I just thought I would write one more entry and and tell you how much I've changed from a naïve little girl to an educated woman. I am still the same in a lot of way. I still love Mom and Daddy a lot and I'll always take care of them. I just hope I find someone who loves me as much as John loves Mom.
"Chloe-Girl! We need you to come with us to celebrate your graduation."
"Come on, Sissy!"
"I'm coming, Daddy."
I see Lana standing in the doorway, black haired and blue eyed. My perfect little sister. Time for me to celebrate.
Love,
Chloe Waters
