Hi Mom! Hi Dad!
I know you can't be with me anymore .
You fought to protect me when the humans attacked . You grabbed your weapons and tried to stop them from hurting us . You fought off lots and lots of them, but there were too many . You started losing .
But neither of you budged . You didn't back off at all, not even when you got hurt really bad .
And then you died .

But don't worry, Mom, I still remember . I still remember what you said to me right before you passed on .
You told me to live .
I was really panicked back then, but I still got what you were trying to tell me . You died for me . That was why you and Dad fought, and why you never backed down no matter what .
It was all for me .
I knew I needed to respect your wishes . So I ran . I ran as hard as I could, even though I was sure I was done for . I felt like all hope was gone . My mom and dad were gone, my home was gone, and I was going to be a goner too . My legs hurt . I thought it felt like I was going to collapse .

But I kept running .
I had to .
Because you both died to try and save me .
And it worked! I really did get saved .
The members of my new family rescued me right when I thought I was doomed . Oh right! You guys never met my new family, so I guess I should tell you a bit about them!
First, is Yuki . He's kinda like my big bro! He's really nice and funny . He always gives me blood when I ask for it . He pays a lot of attention to me and tries his best to make me feel happy . Even just seeing him makes me want to thank him . I really love him!

I remember how you guys always told me about how important blood was for vampires . We need it to live, so it's kinda like something sacred, right?
Mom, I think you said that I wasn't supposed to take it from anyone unless I really loved them and wanted to be a family like you and Dad . I was only supposed to drink blood from animals until I found someone like that .
That was why I asked Yuki for his blood . He was really nice, and he even saved me, so I got really attached to him really quickly!
Just being with him makes me feel warm and relaxed .
He isn't the only one I really love either . I love Lefi a lot too! She's kinda like my new big sister . She talks weird and sometimes acts a lot like a kid, so I'm not really sure if she passes as a big sister, but you can always count on her when push comes to shove .
Oh, and two new people joined our family just a little while ago! Their names are Leila and Lyuu . Lefi called them concubines . I didn't really know what that was, so I asked them, and they got angry . They kinda scared me . But then they turned out to be really nice people! I get along with both of them really well .
My new family's always really fun to be around . We even have pets! One's named Rir, and the other's named Shii . They always play with me and cheer me up if I'm feeling down .
I smile a lot everyday! It hurt a lot when you guys died, but spending time with everyone made it not hurt so much anymore . I'm really happy!
You guys don't need to worry about me anymore .
I'm okay now .
Thanks Mom . Thanks Dad . I love you .
