Carmine Without uttering a word, I stormed out of the infirmary, heading for my room while Steven trailed behind me. I just couldn't deal with her right now. “You're not good enough!” I heard a voice in my head. “I wonder how I was even able to conceive such a weak child!” my mom's voice echoed loudly. “Your brother should have come first.” she said, “I regret the day I had you!” “You're wicked!” Another voice echoed, “You're heartless!” I recognised it, it was Luna Selene’s. I held my head in agony the minute I got to my room; these words kept ringing in my ears, “I'm not heartless, please love me, Mom! Please!” I begged with staggering steps and a trembling voice as tears began to flow down my cheeks. I kept banging my head against the wall, trying to get it all out. “I hate you!”
