I Forgive You, Daddy

Summary

I have an ugly scar across my face.

The older kids at the orphanage called me a monster.

They tied me to an oak tree in the yard and smeared superglue directly into my scar.

I didn't dare to cry, because Mrs. Higgins, the matron, hated ugly kids who misbehaved.

I wished upon every star, praying for the day my father would finally come and take me home.

But when he finally did, there was already another little girl taking my place.

My brother, Cole, blamed me for stealing her spot. He forced me to kneel on the floor on all fours, using my back as her personal footstool.
