I was born on July 7, 1999, and named Crystal. It was the way my crystal eyes shined when I was born. It's now 2015, I'm sixteen. I have shoulder length blonde hair, crystal blue eyes, and pale skin. In my life, I've changed drastically. I'll start at the beginning. The very beginning........

Some of the happiest times I had, I'm seven. I'm a sweet little girl, caring and loving and kind towards others. My blue eyes twinkle when I'm happy. My favorite color is pink. Favorite shade, light rose. I always wear dresses and flats with tall, white, frilly stockings. Innocent. Happy.

"Crystal honey! Time to leave for school!" My mom calls out.

"Coming mom!" I cry out cheerfully.

I remember that being my life. Simple. Every day the same. My twin brother is different. He has black hair and brown eyes, tanned skin. My older sister has red hair and green eyes. My mother has black hair and green eyes. My father has red hair and brown eyes. It's my foster family. My parents are abusive. Real parents. I remember them too. Clearly. Too clearly.
