Months turned into years but this year i was finally 13,nearly 14, and I continued to learn and grow. I wrote a diary about my experience in prison.Lily was released a few months before me, but we promised to keep in touch.
When I was finally released, I was scared. I had been in prison for so long that I didn't know how to live in the real world. But my mother was waiting for me, and she hugged me tightly.My siblings were there too,i didn't know what to do because i wasn't sure if they'd remember me still,even after the letter but they smiled at me, and I knew that everything was going to be okay.
My mother showed me that they got a letter saying that we had to attend Aunt Tamaya's funeral labelling the 'killer family' I sighed and agreed that it was right for us to do so.
I still had a long way to go.I had to make amends for what I had done. But I was ready. I was stronger than I had ever been, and I knew that I could face anything.
Looking back, I can't believe how far I've come. I still have nightmares about that terrible night, but I don't let them control me. I've learned that forgiveness is possible, even for the worst mistakes. And I've learned that life is worth living, no matter how hard it gets.
