I'm Different

20th April, 2006

Dear Diary,

I ended up in the hospital two days ago.

In case you're worried, I'm fine now.

You know who stayed with me?

No one of course. What do you expect?

I don't even care anymore.

I made mistakes in my past.

That doesn't mean I have no right to live and to have a normal life.

My past still haunts me somtimes, but I can't redo it, can I?

My mother, my father and my sister Hannah  were not like this three years ago.

They were loving, supporting and happy people. We were a happy family.

And now? 

All's ruined. 

I'd love to tell you about my past, but I think I can't tell you now without bursting into tears.

What about some other time? I hope you'll listen patiently.

After all, I'm different.

Love,

Lucy.
