Dear Mom and Dad.

Esme and Sophie are definitely the devil.

They survived, and they're here, along with that other lady; they call her Reeva. We can tell them apart now, because Sophie's face is all scarred up. I guess I got some hits in. They're skulking around outside insisting we let them in or go out to talk to them and keep saying stuff about our grandparents. I don't know what you haven't been telling us dad, but we're going to be having words.

I don't understand what they're here for. I'm pretty sure we made it clear we don't want to be part of their little club. We just want to be left in peace.

Dear Mom and Dad.

It's Andy.

Lauren, please don't read this. It's for Mom and Dad.

It's not fair. We didn't start this, but we're being persecuted for it. I just wish everyone would leave us alone! This is us trying not to hurt people! I've never felt more powerful than when I'm using the glow power with Lauren. It's like we could do anything. I want to use it all the time, I think we might be addicted. I want to use it against Sophie and Esme and this Reeva woman, I just want them all to leave us alone! It's not fair! We didn't do this but everyone hates us! There's nothing wrong with us, we want to be left alone!

I feel crazy writing to you. Even if you're not dead, we're never going to see you again.

I want them to leave us alone.

I want to kill them.


To Andy.

I haven't read it.

Dear Mom and Dad.

They're dead. We killed them. Back on the road again.
