Happiness by Anne Frank — Read

Before I begin with the actual story, I need to give you a brief rundown of my life so far.

I no longer have a mother (in fact I never knew her), and my father has little time for me. My mother died when I was two. My father farmed me out to a kindly couple who kept me for five years. When I was seven, I was sent to a kind of boarding school, where I stayed until I was fourteen. Luckily, I was allowed to leave then, and Father took me in. The two of us are lodgers now and I'm attending the Lyceum. Everything in my life was going normally until... well, until Jacques came along.
