" Come here you little brat!" A man yelled as Tina ran sobbing trying to get away and the man grabbed her

" Wlease don't hurt me no more." Tina sobbed and he laughed evilly

" You'll never get away never!" A man yelled hitting her and she sobbed

Tina age 8

She finally left the home. She wanted someone to love her, to keep her warm and keep her safe. People braced her on her looks they thought she was dirty so they turned her away. Some days she wanted to go back to the man who abused her some days she thought who could love someone like her. On some days she thought what did she do to deserve this.

" Tina wake up it's a dream sweetheart." Xibabla said as she woke up and hugged him crying

" If only he knew the haunted memories inside my head." Tina thought

Xibabla made sure she was asleep after giving her some water and food. He kissed her forehead goodnight and Muerte came in she kissed her forehead goodnight. They walked out together Tina for the first time felt warm, safe and loved.

Muerte and Xibabla sighed as they stopped at the nursery doors. Muerte looked at him with tears and he softly smiled.

" I love you my love." Xibabla said smiling and she kissed his lips

And I you with all my heart." Muerte said smiling and they went to bed

" Remind me tomorrow to call the Candle Maker I want to make sure Tina has a candle." Xibabla said as she nodded and they went to sleep
