Daughter

Preface:

Staring into the eyes of a girl I hardly recognize as she stares back at me, a once delicate beautiful face, now as cold and dark as the winter twilight. Looking past the reflection I saw my parents, standing on the curb waiting for the car to pull away from our apartment. It’s sad when you come to realize how little your parents can know about you and how possibly someday, how little you’ll know about your children and who they really are. My parents knew me to be a star student; a respectable young woman and soon everyone will know me to be the s**t, the crazy one- the murderer.

The lights of the police car turn on and the flashing red and blue lights reflect off of my parents as they watch the stranger they once knew as their daughter get taken away from them. As the car pulled away my focus shifted onto the reflection once more, a tear trickles across the girl’s no longer delicate face, all I could think, “What will my parents think of me?”

Interesting. This could use some work, but since I see it's labeled a wip I'll let that go. :)

I'm very curious. Who did the girl kill? I get the impression it was her parents she killed, and she's hallucinating seeing them one last time as the police car pulls away.

I hope you continue this. :)
