*Warning: many moe tears were shed in the making of this journal*
[Lili arrives home from a friends Halloween party clad in her beautiful princess dress. It is five minutes until midnight. The time at the party had been wonderful. From the moment Gilbert had dropped her off to the moment she had left, she had been receiving compliments on how pretty her dress was. She really felt like a princess. For once in her life.
But she was home now. She danced her way into the kitchen, her footsteps echoing throughout the house. Besides her humming and dancing, the entire place was quiet. The image was almost ominous. The dark, dimly lit room, quiet singing, and a small young girl dancing with her invisible prince.
The silence was once again acquainted with the room, when Lili bumped into the counter accidentally, laying her hand on a piece of paper previously invisible to her. It was a note from her brother. It was long, which was odd for her brother being a man of few words. A face of pure terror and sadness appeared on the young girl as she read. He was gone. Gone to find better work in a better land. Lili reread the note over and over making sure she did not miss anything. She was alone now. Not just in her home, but in her life.
The little princess ran to her room and slammed the door shut, ridding herself of the costume and falling onto the bed, crying. The clock strikes midnight. The fairytale is over.]
Journal:
Mein bruder is gone. I am all alone now. I don't even know what to do now. We were supposed to move together soon. I cannot stay in this place. I can't afford it. Why did he have to go. Where do I go? What do I do? I'm going to be homeless in the next week or so. Homeless. I can't believe this...
Last night was so wonderful. Why couldn't it have continued? Why couldn't I have just come home to bruder? Why couldn't I of just had something that simple? Really, I don't ask for much.
I'm really very sorry about this. I just don't know what to feel. I need help. I need a miracle.
