a house in the city small and dirty nothing speacial grayish smoke is what accompanied the young girl by the house windows days she was helping mom by cooking for dad when he comes home from work
"Candy darling be careful on the chair we can't afford to go to the hospital" her mother sculled worm heartedly picking her up and sitting her down at the kitchen counter and getting back to cutting the vegetables whenever she accidentally cut herself from the cutting of vegutables she wouldnt have a reaction in candys eyes this was normal
people dont get hurt if they get paper cuts right? Candy helped her whiteskined mother by pealing the carrets with a safty knifes athough they were harder to use she didnt like the taste of blood in her food so she powerd through it a part of her was scared she might accidently posen mom and dad and give them tummy ackes but if she told daddy he would just call her stupid again
whenever dad comes home be brings gross jucies in glass once she accidentally tried one and threw up staining her white dress and black boots candy mother had to use the save-up money for their family holiday to bring her to the doctors they were really nice and pretty, the nurses and doctors showered her complements and lollipops on the bed it was the first time she went to the hospital and she didn't want to leave at the time
one time he brought her to the pub on halloween and let her play card games with him and his buddies who surprisingly know a lot of bad words her mommy told her never to say half of the time she played she didn't know what they were saying but they were really loud angry and acting silly over the juices the city was loud as usual and mom had to pick up me and dad again because he can't drive when he is sugar high
After cooking Candy jumped off the kichan counter with a soft landing on the ground next to her mother then she ran and went to brush her blonde curly hair she smiled in the mirror and ran back to the table where her mother was humming and knitting a hat for her on haloween since her dad traded her halloween castume for cigerets
candy had to get a step stool to reach her moms hair she was very small for kids her age which was weird becuse she had been eating her vagtuables like her mother asked her ?
she braded her moms red hair into a long brade with her favouret white scrunchy
normally she would play games with her dad when he came back like pool cards manopuly and other stuff she would always win becuse he would always cheat she still played with him regardless becuse if she didnt he would be sad
one day when dad came back from the casino mom dissapeared without a trace? Candy started to cry and look around the house she even made sighns and all but weeks passed and she was just gone. Candy still went to school and took care of her dad he did not bring her out anymore like he used to and the cards on the table went dusty and the colour faded she walked over and placed the deck of cards on her mother's neat untouched bed
the cloweds in the sky was still dusty in the city it was halloween and she never got to wear the hat becuse her mother didnt finish it
dad came come late tonight i think something is diffrent becuse he might be actually bringing me trick or treating. we walked in the forest in silence the moon was full nd the ground was brown and curler trees were straight which is a stark contrase to the one we have at home the air was cold and the light of the moon bounced off her hite dress and golden curles along wth the outline of the wooden tough trees right in the middle they stopped surounded by odd doors candy was so istracted she didnt notice her dads gun was aimed at the back of her a heavy wind blow oped the doores and sucked him inside a heart shapn door with a loud shut Cand turned around confusd and surprised " dad where did you go?" the wind kept going and she fell deeper and deeper down an unknown door
