CRY FOR ME
1
The night sky shines brightly as everyone in mansion sleeps.
One star, in particular was shining very brightly. Brighter than the rest, outshining them all.
Almost as if a new beginning was starting.
But that’s is impossible of course, isn’t it..?
Perhaps not, there are many things that are unknown. Only time will tell.
Ezra Alaire
T-This can’t be, this cannot be happening.
The girl walked slowly towards the mirror and touches her face with her pale, trembling hands.
Ezra Alaire
Why am I back?
Ezra Alaire
This has to be a nightmare…
Ezra Alaire
After everything I’ve been through why am I still reminded of this miserable place!
Ezra Alaire
I thought dying was enough, why can’t you all leave me alone like before!
Ezra Alaire
Ah, yes a nighmare, just a nightmare they are gone from your life, you don’t have to see them anymore, this is all just a dream a very very bad dream…
The shock was too much for her, she was struggling to breathe. She couldn’t handle living like this again.
Her body is tired, she is tired. She could feel her eyes shutting down, along with her body.
Ezra Alaire
Surely this is a dream…

The bright sun shines brightly through Ezra’s room.
Ezra Alaire
So I wasn’t a dream after all…
Ezra Alaire
How miserable am I?
Ezra Alaire
Well, I can’t just sit and quietly watch myself go through hell all over again.
Ezra Alaire
I might as well live my life to the fullest.
Ezra Alaire
Let’s think of this as a new beginning.
Maid
Miss, please come down and get ready soon.
Ezra Alaire
I will be down soon.
Ezra walks slowly down the stairs, to the dining hall where her family is.
She said, in a cold voice.
Celine Alaire
Good morning, sister!
Father
Why are you talking like that Ezra? Look at your sister, kind and adorable. She’ll become a princess, while you… Who knows what you’ll be.
Ezra Alaire
It’s alright, Celine.
Ezra Alaire
Look, father. I’m not here to argue but if you want to I will.
Mother
Ezra! Speak to your father with respect!
Ezra Alaire
Father? He’s just a random man in my life. I have no respect for him as a father.
Father
Ezra! I have taken you care for so long and this is how you treat me!
Ezra Alaire
Take care of me? Please, you’ve done everything but take care of me.
Ezra Alaire
Don’t forget, your a FATHER. You signed up to take care of your children the moment I was born, if you can barely do that then why have children at all?
Father
I take perfect care of my children, look at Celine. She grew up pretty, polite, and has manners. You just aren’t greatful for the efforts given to take care of you!
Ezra Alaire
Took perfect care of Celine? Your only exploiting her for your selfish reasons!
Ezra Alaire
See, you can’t even deny it.
Ezra Alaire
I’m leaving, I have no appetite.
Ezra leaves the dining hall, leaving the three in silent.
Mother
Sweetheart, don’t listen to her. Everything she said was just a lie.
Father
Yes yes, she is just jealous of you.
Celine Alaire
Ah, alright…
Celine Alaire
“What’s the use of lying? She was right and you know it. I’m just a toy for all of you to use and throw away.”

Ezra Alaire
I’m sorry for disrupting everyone at the dining hall…
Celine Alaire
It’s okay sister, that doesn’t matter.
Celine Alaire
Everything you said was true.
Celine Alaire
Sister, you won’t leave me right?
Celine Alaire
I can’t stay alone in this house!
Ezra Alaire
Don’t worry, I won’t. If I leave, then you’ll leave with me.
Ezra Alaire
I won’t leave you alone here.
Celine Alaire
Don’t break the promise! I’ll be leaving now!
Ezra Alaire
Last time I failed to protect my little sister. I was powerless and defenseless against my dad.
Ezra Alaire
This time it will be different.
Ezra Alaire
But, as of right now I’m powerless.
Ezra Alaire
I can’t do anything but raise my voice at him.
Ezra Alaire
I need to do something, something to gain power.
Ezra Alaire
I need to become the head of the family.
Ezra Alaire
