Secrets by Lauren (e book reader online TXT) 📖

My sister Lilith was born special, unlike me, I was born with natural black hair and dark brown eyes.

I will tell you how Lilith was born special, she has sandy yellow hair and colour changing eyes it doesn’t vary much, the only change from black to dark brown to dark blue. She is also extremely talented , I can sense it , she is perfect , she is gifted .


But where we were born it is uncommon to be born like that. Only foreigners have such colouring.
People say things , she gets lots of attention , why can’t I have attention . I envy her but hate her at the same time .
It’s unfair only because I’m older by one year , they don’t give me stuff like they do for her .
Lilith diary

I have always admired my sister , she is perfect she fits in and has lots of friends unlike me , all I get are weird stares. I look at my self and wonder why people stare like that , mama says to other people I can’t change the way I look.

People yell foreigner and weird words that I don’t understand .

I’m not aloud to go out because mama says It’s too dangerous.
My sister is aloud to go out they also worship the ground she walks on .

I heard mama saying that they are going to send me away because I’m a problem child . I don’t understand why I don’t cause problems.
My friend wood and fire cause problems but that’s it .
They make the rocks whisper and the candles dance.
Lilith aged five
Le-Shan P.O.V

I carried on running , I was running away from my samurai teacher , he wanted me to fight an older opponent.
I came to a dead end and panicked, my panic was soothed by faint singing ……

Across the moon
And under the bridge
I play with my sisters
Earth and fire
They hold what people desire

The singing stopped and I heard a girls voice say “I know your there , come climb over the wall they will come any second,” her voice was like high ringing bells chiming.
I thought for a second , what if it was a trap anyway how she know about it .

I looked at the wall , it was the high Sukumi family palace .
I grabbed onto the wall and swung my leg over.

Well an invite is an invite , maybe it might be their lovely daughter rowan.

The garden was magnificent , a giant pond was in the middle and by the corner was willow trees and rowan trees .
The grass was bright green , trimmed to perfection , and sat by a massive water fountain was a young girl.
She didn’t look she kept her focus at the fountain.
“who were you running from?”
She turned her head and pulled her hat off her head , I stared her hair was a sandy yellow , it glowed in the sunlight.


“who ar—rre y-o-u ?”I stuttered

She stood up and walked to me
“isn’t it obvious , do you know where you are ?”her voice was like a running stream.

“I’m the Sukumi daughter …………

“no your not , she has black hair and you have have have em yellow hair ,”

“actually I am , they don’t like to take me out ……she began to sob …… I heard my mama say she was going to send me away,” she began to cry , her tears were the brightest blue I had ever seen .
I walked closer and comforted her .

“why would they send you away , you don’t look bad to me , a bit different sure but not bad,”

She looked up at me , her face was filled with rage and tears
“WHO SAID I WAS BAD!” the shout was crossed between a sob and yelp.
Her voice quietened down .
“leave now , they have given up searching for you,”

She nudged me to the wall
“wait I don’t know your name,”

“my name is Lilith , you must go now my mama will be home by now,”


I climbed over the wall to only find my samurai teacher standing there , he looked calm .
“where have you been ? we have been very worried ,”

Worried ? master never gets worried , angry yes but worried no .
That girl is seriously unusual , master taught me to sense things and what I sense from her isn’t normal beyond normal .


Lilith diary

I wonder who that boy was , he guarded his thought very securely , maybe he has been trained.

Rown diary

I wonder what my little sister is up to , I am so glad that she is leaving today , ha and she doesn't even know it .

At least when she is gone mama and father will be able to buy me more dresses , Lilith's dresses cost too much , she had to like the english dresses.

I wonder where they are going to send her.
