Morgana aged 4
Mummy had gone out and left me alone with the maids. Niklaus said he couldn’t visit because he had train, so I was alone. I wander down the halls alone, skipping along.
The door knocked and a maid hurried along to open it, I heard her shouting at the man, but he barged in and came looking for me. I hid behind a bookshelf and he crouched down in front of me, with a warm smile on his face, I thought I recognised him.
“Hey baby girl” he smiled, “aren’t you going to give your daddy a hug?”
I stared at him in shock and ran into his arms crying. He didn’t care that I was crying and he hugged me back. “It’s ok darling” he said softly, hugging me and gently stroking my hair, “I missed you darling, I’m sorry I left you here”
“Mummy hits me, daddy. She keeps hitting me and it hurts” I cried, burying my face against his chest.
He hugged me tighter, “I’m going to take you away with me, Morgana. I’m not leaving you here with mummy, I’ll look after you.”
I hear the front door, mummy is home. My eyes widen in fear and I snuggled into my daddy. He holds me protectively and stands my, cuddling me in his arms.
He and mummy start screaming at each other, I snuggle into him terrified. A couple of minutes later, daddy goes limp and drops me and then drops to the floor. I stare at daddy in shock, and then look at mummy.
Blood spread across her face as she gives me a Cheshire cat smile. I know immediately I’m to go to my room, I run out the room and upstairs and hide in my wardrobe, scared mummy will hurt me like she hurt daddy.
