Dear Diary,
Today has been a good day. After the evil witch saw something that looked like a pack of rats, she started screaming at Daddy and left.
Daddy didn't know what she was screaming about and just watched as she left.
He shook his head. "Women are so strange." and so he didn't think much of it.
So later Daddy said we were going on a trip to a jewelry store. That sounded...kind of boring but Daddy wanted to go.
Well, before we went, Daddy put a top hat on me and into a red blazer with a white mask that covered part of my face. I never understood why people who wear masks that cover part of their face count that as a disguise. You know a person can tell who it is if you see them with and without it. Well that's what Bane says anyway.
I asked Daddy why I had to dress up like this. He said it for my protection. From what though? is what I was thinking at the time.
We went to the jewelry store with some really big guys and one of Daddy's weird machines. It looked like a giant flower with lots of big shiny things on it. We were in this big truck you know that carry lots of things.
Well after like 10 minutes, we got there. Daddy told me to stay with him as close as possible. Then the big guys rolled out Daddy's machine and put it in the store, there was a large pop and poof sound then Daddy and I went in. There was this pink smoke and two of the big guys rolled back the machine to the truck and the other two wore huge masks that made them look like giant bugs, and they were stuffing as much jewelry in the bags.
I looked at all the other people in the store. They all had these big goofy smiles yet they looked asleep.
"What do you think, Sweetie? Thought it would be boring?" Daddy asked me.
"I think the people look funny and it smells like home." I told him. "Do I need to wear those huge masks,too?" I pointed at the big guys.
"No, I think you're so used to the gas, it won't work on you." Daddy said, patting me on the head.
I looked at him, as the big guys finished and ran back to the truck.
"Okay it's time to go." Daddy said and we went back to the truck.
We went on another trip to a warehouse. After what felt like forever, Daddy got the bags with things he liked and the big guys got the rest.
Then we went home, and Daddy dumped the bags out.
"Sweetie, for being a patient little girl, you get to choose 3 pieces of jewelry before I put them in the basement." He smiled, well his eyes smiled and he pet me on the head again.
I was so happy and I looked through it like they were toys. So I looked through them and there were some really old pieces in the piles.
There was even something that wasn't really jewelry. A gold pocket watch that had really thick gold chains. On the face of it was a pretty leaf pattern. I opened it and it worked. I put it to my ear and listened to the nice ticking sound. I really liked it.
Got one now the next one was of course a diamond ring. I can see myself getting married to a prince on a dark, black horse. I know every little girl's dream, but I can seriously see it. Unless Daddy scares him away then a guy who can stand Daddy and is just like the rest of my family, that would be nice.
But the third piece was hard. What to choose what to choose. Earrings? Nah, I swore to myself never to get any piercings since the day Doc had to give me my shots. So painful.
I looked over and saw a very pretty ring. It had a very dark red color stone and it was so mesmerizing. So I took the three pieces and told Daddy I was done.
Daddy looked over the three pieces. "Hm, didn't know you like the antiques." He gathered them up and put them in the basement. Daddy built something between a safe, a safe house, and a prison, but in a warehouse type way. It is built tougher than Fort Knox and safer than a bomb shelter/ anti-nuclear thinamajig. So when anything happens hide in the basement. There isn't even a real door to it. Daddy made it look like part of the walls then put lots of cement reinforcements behind it and only a special key that Daddy and I only have. I keep mine in my bunny since it's always with me.
Daddy came back up and went to me. He told me to turn around and he took the pocket watch and put it around neck.
Daddy pet me again and then went to the kitchen to make dinner. I went upstairs and put the rings in a this hole in my room. You can lift up the floorboard and I have this little box and I put my rings in it. Now I'm placing you here, as I always do. Good night.
