Side Story #1 - Victoria's Past

Several years ago...

I thought that everything would be just fine as long as I had my mother. But it was all for naught as I realized that my father tossed her away like a plaything.

I yearned for the admiration and love of my parents. I was such a small child, small enough for anyone to hold me in their arms and carry me.

I yearned for their attention, their love, their time and whatever it may be that would keep their eyes locked in place with me.

That smile that my mother does whenever I saw her, it was something that I dearly wanted to see again and again.

And as much as I tried to do whatever I can to please father. I tried to be the best at everything I could. But all I've got where those eyes.

Those eyes that I haven't forgotten.

His eyes were locked in mine, but I knew he couldn't see me. I wasn't his child. I was never, his daughter.
