"What do you mean?" Criss asked getting up. "I have a hard time showing love considering mom never gave it to me. She blamed me for what happened to my father and sister,". "The night my mom had me our house had a carbon monoxide problem. My mother and I survived but my dad and sister died since they had toxic level of monoxide in their blood. My mom always told me that if she wasn't carrying me she would be with my father instead without him" she replied. "That's not nice to say to a child". "It got worse when I went to elementary school she started to neglect me. I would go to school without anything to eat and one day I collapsed at school. The nurse at the school could feel my rib cage so she called police and my mom was arrested".

Oh my god no wonder she ran off Julie has never seen someone show her love Criss thought. "My mother's rights were taking away so I went into foster care that's where I met Minnie" showing Criss a picture of her sitting at a table. "Reminds me of my niece" giving her the picture. "Her father was a photographer that's what got me interested in photography. He was a great guy but he had a dark side" Julie stated. "How dark?" Criss asked. "Let's just say he's registered and I don't mean to vote". Yikes Criss thought. "When he was arrested Minnie's mom divorced him fast and made sure he didn't do anything to me and Minnie. The good thing that came out of it Minnie's mom didn't want to put me back into foster care again so she adopted me" she stated. "That's good". "When Costa kissed me it just brought back all those feelings about my mom and my past. Criss I've never been kissed by a guy". Criss was a bit thrown back. "You never had a guy kiss you". "No when I was in foster care I told a guy who I thought was my friend what happened to me but instead he told every guy who was in ear shot they use to call me Damaged Julie'". "Kids can be cruel Julie but you shouldn't let the past tic take the present or your future"Criss remarked. "Thanks Criss you made me feel a little better about Costa, but Criss do you mind if we put those pictures you want on hold for a while" she said. "No take your time we'll talk about it later" and Criss left.
