When the civil war began, my world collapsed once and for all. My mother took her luggages and went missing, my dad was researched by the opposite clan who wanted to kill him. Laura, Onesim and I, had nowhere to go except to our grandparent's house.

Our grandparents received us with joice. They had a house so big that it was divided in two house. There was the ancient house where I passed nearly all my childhood and there was the new one where all the family decided to live.

On our arrival, everything was so new to us... I, then decided to cool my head in the front of the house and without realizing it, it hit me even harder, the reality that I lived, the nightmare that I lived. I was alone with my two siblings in the middle of nowhere without my parents, without a single penny, I had to take a classe that I nearly missed and finally, I had no friends and I knew no one except my family and ironically, the "friends" who raped me. Without realizing it, tears started rolling down on my cheeks. Who was I? Why was life so difficult for me? And why were us now obligated to bend our chin in front of people who didn't considered us as humans being?

My grandmother didn't loved my mom, I knew it since my mom always cried when we visited them. She was against my parents union and naturally started hating us too.

Why were we in a house where we were hated? The tears started and weren't ready to end soon.

I was in the middle of my sad reflection when I heard someone approached and aborded me :

- can I help you? Why are you crying? My name is Angel. What's yours?

When I raised my head, I was surprised to find someone who have an apparence described by his name.

He was tall and skinny, his skin has a white tone that compliment his deep blue eyes. His lips were thin as if they were draw with a well cut pencil. He was a mix of a heavenly angel and an evil.

This day, I decided to make him my angel, the one who will take me high in the sky. I didn't knew that this decision was the worst I ever had. My descent into hell really started. And my destiny received an arrow in the middle of her heart.

Between hypocrisy, hate and poorness, my hate for human being really started when the man whom I gave everything to took me to hell with a big smile. But I was tired of being, the victim, and the one who is good for nothing and the mistreat one, tired of being in the heart of hell. I then decided to begin my revenge against life.

My name is Myri-gem Aurora, and this is the story of my war against my broken destiny.

I've always hated sport and everything that requires a lot of a energy. That's why my friends even started calling me Layz as I'm too lazy to do anything at the point where my body can't support any physical activity.

But, can somebody please tell me why am I running even when my bare feet are bleeding? I haven't closed my eyes for more than thirty minutes and here I am again, Running bare feet on a rainy day. I don't know where I'm going but I can feel something attract me. I finally stopped running after seeing a man. Who is he? Why is he unconscious? And why is he bleeding?

I can't really read the emotions on my face but I can feel them as if it wasn't a dream. My heart ache so much...

I can't support the pain but I can't wake myself up either. It's as if my entire body was paralyzed.

After one thousand essays, here is my opportunity, my parents are fighting again. I hope they make so much noises that it wake me up. After all if there are gonna fight, may their fight be useful this time.

I haven't finished my thought that a huge noise breake my paralysis. Here they are again, throwing things at each other.

I usually start worrying and pray for them to make up again, but not today. I need some air, I need to think about this horrible nightmare. Without realizing it, I was already on the balcony, looking for everything that's going to make me forget my life. That's how I find myself staring at this sky again. As if it was my last time staring at it, as if the more I looked at it, the more my problems would be resolved. The starry sky seems to also look at me. I always told myself that every stars in the sky represent the destiny of a person. The more the star shine, the more this person have a successful life. But it seems that mine doesn't exist. I'm not that special. That's maybe why my life is this horrible or maybe it's a punishment from heaven for everything I've done to Alex.

My name is Aurora, I'm 18 years old.

I've two brothers, Onesim who's 14 years old and Alex, my half brother who is 20 years old. My only sister's name is Laura and she's 16 years old.

We all were born here, at Twice and since our birth until today, the 23rd of May 2025, we've never leaved to any other city. Personally, I'd like to visit another city or country but I can't do it without my siblings.

Since a very young age, my parents never to tell me that I'm like secondary mother for my siblings and I always lived as If I was one. But I'm note sure that I can do it anymore after what happened to Alex...

Today, like every other normal day, everyone in Twice began their day very early. It's nearly five but the streams are already crowded.

I've always admire the human's capacity to adapt himself to every situation. Not that it's a bad thing, on the contrary, it's great to see these people live thair life as if their country wasn't at the edge of a huge civil war.

Twice as it's name say, is a city divided into two. One for the liberals people and the other one is for people who are for the dictatorship program.

At this precise moment, the liberal party dominated everything as they won the elections five years ago. But the opposition clan are preparing for a rebellion.

No more than yesterday, a liberal leader was burn alive in his house along with all his family. The terrifying fact is that my father is also a liberal leader and our life is at risk.

But today, I don't wanna ruin my mood as it's the first day of school and studies are gonna begin again. Finally something that I'm good at.

I should start preparing myself. As my mother always say, "you'll never know where you're gonna find your soul mate. " I haven't even finished thinking about my clothes that a huge noise make me jump of surprised.

This on is clearly not made by my parents. It's way too huge for them to make it. It seem more like a gun noise. As if someone was shoot at.

It should be the dictatorship rebells doing.

I started waking up my siblings without a second thought and at the same time, my parents stopped fighting. It's ironic how they need another war to end theirs.

Me : "Mom, what's happening?"

Mom: " honey, it's not time for questions. You should start dressing up. There's no way for us to sleep In this house. "

Me :" where are we going?"

Mom: " we're going to sleep in the forest. " "don't stand here ! I told you to hurry!"

Me: "okay mom. Sorry..."

While dressing myself, I can't help but notice the horror on their faces. As if I was the only one confused, as if the all knew that this situation would happen today.

Everyone is present except dad.

Me: "what about Dad? Where is Dad?

After silence, I realized that no one kn where my dad was.

Dad is closer to me than Mom. He is like my best friend, he knows all my fears. Without my dad, my life would mean nothing.

The goosebumps in my chin intensified itself as I realized that this situation is like a deja-vu for me. It's the same situation that I saw in my nightmares.

I've always had dreams as true as reality and so weird that I decided that they were nightmare. This one was the only one I banned completely. As the face of my dying dad couldn't leave my thoughts. In my dream, people pursued him but, as my dad couldn't run, they captured him killed him.

I started crying and stuttering as I ask my mom a last question. The question wose answer is gonna decide of whether or not I should be panicked.

Me: " Mom, do remember when I was height and you told me that my dreams were predictions, were you serious about that?"
