Being alone like that can be hard, but for me it started to feel like I was living on my own. Aunt N worked evenings and didn't get home until after midnight most nights so I was pretty free to do as I pleased. I figured out that guys only wanted one thing and now that my innocence was taken I decided I could use that to my advantage. I continued looking into ESP and other ways I would be able to get what I wanted out of life. I continued to babysit and kept myself busy with that. I also found that the boys from school were fine hanging out with me and taking walks, again, as long as no one saw us.
I started hanging out at the building that had now undergone several business changes from the sewing shop my mom worked at to the YMCA and now it became a thrift store. But that is not where I was hanging out. The owners son had moved into the back of the building and I thought he was really cute so I was hanging around him. He wouldn't give in to my efforts as he felt I was really too young. But he was nice and I liked talking to him so I hung out there frequently. He was teaching martial arts in the back of the building. I met another girl where I was babysitting and we also hung out and made our plans to be rock stars. She was really cool but once I stopped babysitting there I never saw her again.
In my loneliness I watched a lot of movies and one of those movies was The Bell, Book and Candle. In the movie she used her familiar, a cat to cast a love spell. From that movie I got the idea to do a love spell to attract a boyfriend. I had this perfume called Love Spell, and I used that and my cat and cast the spell.

Aunt J and Uncle D had taken care of my siblings and I off and on throughout my life. I never could connect with Uncle D which made me feel like he didn't like me even if that was not the truth. He was never inappropriate with me. They had raised 5 children together and their youngest was two year older than I was. We both went to the same school but she would not be seen talking to me at school and barely talked to me at the house. We never rode to school together. My Uncle D was the band teacher to my high school as well and my Aunt J worked as a medical assistant. Aunt J was always very kind to me and showed me what a mother could be. Her house was always clean even when all five kids were at home. She was an inspiration to me.
One day she let me ride one of the bikes to I rode all the way to the PAF's apartment, but he had gone out of town. You see I never had the chance to tell him why I stopped coming over. I left a message with a neighbor as the lady I babysat for had also moved. Towards the end of the school year my Aunt J took me to a graduation at the high school and gave me a dress I was really uncomfortable wearing, it was a wrap around dress and it would fly open. She gave me cheerleading undergarments to wear under it but I still felt exposed as I was the girl always hiding her chest behind books and dressing as unflattering as possible to avoid attention.
Then I was moved to the coast to live with my mom and step dad. At least it was walking distance to my grandparents house.
