ANNA'S POV
"Why are you so cold hearted?" Anita asked.
"Because they turned me into what I am today" I fired.
" They? Who are they?" She inquired, perplexed.
I closed my eyes as I remembered that fateful day.
******
It was a Monday morning!
I woke up feeling different and happy.
I'm plus one today!
"Today is my birthday! Today is my birthday!!" I jumped on my bed in excitement.
The thought of getting my sport car which I had always wanted, added to my happiness.
On my birthdays,dad always grant one of my wishes and I am definitely gonna request for a pink sports car today.
I jumped down from the bed and got out of my night gown.
I had my shower, wore my underwears and slipped into one of my designer black short gowns..I wore a light make up and tied my hair in a ponytail.
When I looked into the mirror, I was satisfied with what I saw..
I slipped into my pink heels before heading downstairs..
Dad was on his special couch reading his news paper while mum was receiving a leg massage from one of the helpers..
"Good morning mum and dad" I greeted,giving each of them a peck.
"Good morning baby and how's my princess doing?" Dad asked.
"I'm cool dad" I replied, giggling.
Why haven't they wished me a happy birthday?
"Why are you all dressed up?" Mum asked..
"I'm going out with my friends"
"Aww..Go catch some fun but get back home early" Mum said with a pat on my back.
"Okay..but..." I stuttered..
"What's wrong?" Mum asked..
"Aren't you guys forgetting something?" I blinked my eyes.
"Something like what?" Dad arched his brows.
"About someone's special day" I winked.
"Someone's special day?" Mum repeated. "Who?"
Seriously? How could they forget the birthday of their only daughter?
"Forget it!" I snapped and turned back to leave.
"Aren't you eating? Breakfast is served" mum called out.
" I'm not hungry" I scowled, heading to the door..
"Goodbye baby! Take care of yourself"
"Whatever"
I Grumpily walked outside but ran into my elder brother, Williams..
He had just got back from his morning jog.
"And where's my annoying little sister heading to?" He asked.
"That's none of your business" I fired.
"Oh! Sorry miss" he shrugged,heading inside..
"Wait a minute"
"What's it?" He replied a bit curtly as he turned to face me.
"You remember that today is a special day for me, right?" I asked, pouting my lip.
"A special day for you? Are you getting married today" he asked with his eyes almost bugging from their sockets.
"Huh? Marriage?" I repeated in disbelief. "You've lost your mind"
I walked to my car, pissed off.

I got home tired..
Today's party was fun.My friends had surprised me with a lot of birthday gifts,unlike my family who had forgotten about my birthday.
I packed my car in the garage and walked to the door but it was locked..
I input the password and the door cracked open..
I stepped into the house and locked the door-but to my amazement, the house was dark.
I am sure they're all busy sleeping.
"Looks like nobody cares about me again"l muttered.
I was about climbing the stairs to my room, when the lights suddenly turned on .
I was shocked to see my family members and the helpers..They all stood there beaming with smiles.
The house was heavily decorated with balloon and flowers and the popular birthday song played in the background.
"Happy birthday!!" They all chorused..
My joy knew no bound as I jumped on each of them,giving them a tight hug.
We partied all night..
I slept that night praying that no harm befalls my family.
*****
"So what do you want for your birthday gift?" Dad had asked me during our breakfast, the next day.
"I want one of the latest sport car, red precisely" I giggled.
"Jeez! That'll cost a lot of money." Mum interrupted.
I raised my eyebrows.
"Come on mum! Dad isn't complaining.." I whined..
"Exactly honey! I'm not complaining..I have just paid for the car online..so all you have to do is to go drive it home"
" Thanks Dad" I leaped in happiness and plastered a peck on his cheek.
"I have to go guys" I added briskly
"But where are you going to?" Mum asked.
"To get my car of course" I laughed,running out.
***
I got my car and happily drove home but the door to the house wasn't locked.
"Strange!!" I muttered..
I entered into the house and to my chagrin,my parents and only brother lay on the floor - they were all bleeding..
My heart missed a beat as I quickly ran to them..
"Mum! Mum!!" I cried shaking her, but there was no reply..
Is..is..she dead?
I ran to my brother..
"Wi..William" I quivered, violently shaking him..
But he didn't even bulge..
"Wi..William..please wake up..you're my super hero,please don't leave me" I cried..
What happened to my family?
But they were all healthy and happy before I left..
"A..Anna" I heard a whisper..
I turned back..
"Dad!!" I ran to him..
"Dad..what..what happened?" I cried..
"You..you..have to run faraway" dad forced himself to say.
"But...but..why? Who ..did..this.?" I wailed.
He didn't say anything rather he just tore part of his white shirt and used his blood to write names of some people..
"Take..take this" he said while coughing out blood..
I took it from him still confused.
"Daddy!! What's happening?"
"Stay away from those people, you have to run some where faraway..Those people are bad they're gonna hurt you if they ever find you" dad stuttered, breathing heavily..
"But..who'll I run to? Why should I leave you guys here? I..I..can't live without you guys" I cried..
"I love you baby but you'll have to Leave now" Dad insisted, he coughed out blood.
"No! No daddy!!" I cried, shaking my head.
"I have always given you all you ever asked from me my child but today your father wants something from you" dad said and took my hands in his..
"What..what is it dad?"
"Promise me that you'll live..promise me that you'll fight death and keep my lineage from coming to an end"
"But..why are you speaking this way?"
"Just promise me! Promise your father"
"I promise you dad. But give me some minutes, I'll go call for help"
"It's too late.. you'll have to leave now"
"No dad! I'm not leaving without you" I cried..
"Please just leave" he slowly said and closed his eyes.
His body became pale.
"No! No!" I cried.
"Daddy!!!"
Just then I heard some footsteps coming towards the house..
"I'll have to leave! But I'll avenge your deaths! I'll make them pay!!" I vowed through gritted teeth before running out through the back door, to an unknown destination..
