Chapter One: Introducing my Life

It’s the first time I started a journal in my twenty year existence. I figured I might as well write each day and add whatever memory that pops up. I saw a journal with a blue cover with white pages and blue lines, in the small town of Wolf’s Howl, New York general store and brought it for eight dollars. The sales lady tried to get me to buy it for twenty five dollars the regular price. Boy was she mean; she was rude to me when I showed her my Dad’s discount card. The lady was disgusted with me. I couldn’t believe it when people in that town are treating me like a freak! It’s no excuse to treat me that way because I’m deaf! That’s how the people of Wolf’s Howl, treat me because I’ve been treated this way ever since I could understand this behavior at age twelve. I’ve lived in the small town of Wolf’s Howl, New York all of my life. They don’t treat me as something that is an equal person but someone who’s like a circus freak. I hate it when that happens because I’m born deaf.

As for the journal is leather bound with a string wrapped around it. The journal has about six hundred pages according to the sticker on the back which I peeled off. I decided to start a journal because Mom was writing stuff in journals I figured if she can do this, so can I because I felt like it.

I found out last month after Zoya left on March 10, 1998 that I have a cousin named Elizabeth Lisha Zeskaya. I thought it was a joke at first. I couldn’t believe it when I found out. This brought me to buy a journal in the store because of a powerful urge to write things down. I wonder why my parents kept this from me. How I found out is I read what Mom wrote in her journal, while Mom was out shopping at the local store in Wolf’s Howl last week. She left her journal on the kitchen table in the house. I wound up picking the journal up and dropped it on the floor by accident. The page fell to this entry marked March, 20, 1998 which I being nosy read and copied:

Poor Anastia, I wonder when she will know of her cousin Elizabeth who lives in Hamden, Connecticut. I wanted to tell her outright when Anastia was sixteen years old but my parents wouldn’t let me do that. They threatened to expose our family secret. I dare not write that down because someone would read this. A pity, that my sister Marina Zeskaya won’t support me in going against our parents’ wishes to tell Anastia about Lisha.

Anastia is me, her daughter, Anastasia Yuliet Stonehawk, whose Mom is referring to. I could have copied more but Mom came home and I had to pretend to read a book about something else. Here’s some background on my family, Marina is my mom’s sister who lives in Connecticut with at first with Grandma and Grandpa Najinov in Wolfville. For awhile, I thought she was a single mother raising Mahalia Zoya whose hearing, my younger sister goes by the name of Zoya, who look a lot like me, but appears that Aunt Marina has a child named Elizabeth and is married to someone who’s last name is Zesky. As for the look like me thing, she has tan skin of a Native American like me but she has brown eyes while I have blue eyes.

Zoya is Mahalia Zoya Stonehawk, used to live here with us in New York but she according to Mom wanted to go to school in Connecticut instead and wanted to be near Grandma and Grandpa. So my parents against my wishes sent her on a plane ride to Connecticut. This happened in March. It was really early in the morning when they did this. They were supposed to wake me up at 3am to let me say good bye to her but Mom told me she wanted to let me sleep and make it less painful for our parting. So Dad drove Zoya to the airport in another major town an hour away. Then Zoya flew to Connecticut on a private plane my rich Grandparents paid for. Humph, they did that last month during some school vacation. I wonder why they did this. Mom told me that Zoya couldn’t adjust to living here in Wolf’s Howl. She’s younger than me by a few years and it doesn’t make any sense at all. Considering days before she left Zoya confided in me in a written paper note dated March 4, 1998:

Anastia, I overheard our parents arguing about sending me to someplace like Connecticut. I heard them arguing that through the kitchen door. They made it seem like Grandma and Grandpa; Mom’s parents wanted me there in Connecticut with them instead of living here. I heard them mention something about some money being cut off if they didn’t send me at all by March 31st. It’s the 4th of March now. I don’t get it but my parents mentioned something else that doesn’t make sense. They mentioned something about needed me to be there for observation.

Zoya

Later my parents’ in my presence told Zoya that she was visiting Mom’s parents in Connecticut and should pack a bag for the duration of the school vacation. I did notice an odd look pass on Zoya’s face like she wanted to say more but couldn’t. Then later she visited my room and her eyes glowed yellow which creep me out. She wanted to show some thing according to her sign language talk but Mom came upstairs and Zoya asked me if she could borrow some of my books. She never brought up the subject of her eyes again in my presence. I did notice her talking to Mom about something which both clammed up in front of me when I entered the room. After Zoya left, all the stuff of Zoya’s that were in the room I shared with her were taken. Mom claims they were sent to Connecticut because Zoya loved living there and wanted to stay there. I suspect it had something to do with her note to me. Whenever I tried to bring up the subject about Zoya, Mom would change the subject abruptly. As for Dad he would talk about missing Zoya and how her presence would make him sad. I asked Dad why they sent Zoya but he wouldn’t tell me because every time he was about to say something about Zoya was when he would look at his beeper like it went off. He always had this fearful look on his face when he saw his beeper. I feel like someone was eavesdropping on
