Jess (Or better known as Aphmau) ran away from her past. But the funny thing is... Her past isn't no bad thing. She had the most best friends ever. She had exciting adventures waiting for her every day. So basically everyone's question is "Why?" Fear of her family members was definitely one of the reasons. Actually it was the only reason. Imagine having an uncle who will stop at nothing to have you killed. Exactly what Jess has. Now that you all know that. Makes more sense that she ran away doesn't it?
