this is the childhood story i did for my character,its short and weird. its ment to show more of the relation ship between cora and her father

'''It was one of those months of the never ending cold. I was wrapped in an old blanket in the living room. Mr. smith was asleep in a rusty chair behind me, snoring. I had tried to escape earlier today through the window, but he caught me and beat me. My face still stounge. '''

'''I stared at the small fireplace on the wall. I watched the fire, how it danced and spun. I was obsessed with it at the time. I was like the fire. For only a few hours would run around freely, to be put out later by the figure who people call my dad.'''

'''I had always wondered what fire was exactly. What did it smell like? Did it taste like anything? Of course, i wasn’t a smart five year old. So i slowly got up and walked towards the fire still wrapped in the blanket. I felt its intense heat. It was so strong. I reached over to the fire. I was so curious. I slowly put my hand out and touched the fire. It burned. I screamed and fell back, tears rolling down my face as my blistering hand stung. I looked behind me. Mr smith had woken up to go to the kitchen. I sat alone in the middle of the floor tears going down my cheeks with a burnt hand.'''

'''Suddenly i felt big hands pick me up and put me on their lap. Mr smith took the wet towel he had in his hand and pressed it against my burnt hand. I winced at first, then relaxed. The burning seemed to go away. Mr smith shook his head sighing. “You should be lucky i’m around.”'''

'''I looked up at him. For the first time he didn’t have that angry look in his eye. He started to sing quietly. '''

“No scorching sun nor freezing cold

Will stop me on my journey

If you will promise me your heart..”

I slowly fell asleep as he sung.

'''“Thank you…” i let the darkness develope me. '''

Dad 

'''And i never forgot the song. '''
