Personal Diary(Charlotte)

Description

 * 9th May 1913
 * Tonight, I went with mother visiting the sick of the East End. It had been a long time
 * since I went in this sad part of town. To see her talking and listening to those poor
 * people moved me beyond words. She really tries to make a difference, and really tries
 * to help these men and women. She also killed one of them tonight. It happened so
 * quickly I did not even notice she had vanished, but when she reappeared, she looked so
 * much more alive, more vivid. I immediately knew what had just happened. She took a
 * life and I saw nothing. We returned home without a word. If I ever become like her. I
 * won't feed on the dying. I will kill the guilty and the brutes wherever they hide.
 * 13th September 1914
 * This afternoon, two men tried to corner me in a back alley while I was campaigning for
 * the women's right to vote. I called for help as loud as I could, like mother told me. I don't
 * know what would have happened if a soldier had not ordered them to leave me alone.
 * He then walked me back home and tried to kiss me. I refused. He did not say a word
 * and left. The whole story made me so sad I was still crying when mother woke up after
 * the night had come. I told her the whole truth and she had me against her chest. Then
 * we went to the theatre to see Doris Fletcher in her new play. I think I'm a little bit
 * frustrated that mother did not rush out to make them all pay! If I were a vampire. I would
 * not be that merciful.
 * 15th September 1914
 * We had a terrible argument with mother last night, as she refused once again to turn me
 * into an immortal. When I reminded her of what had happened to me in that street with
 * those two men, and how things would have been different if I had been like her, or if
 * they had carried weapons, she simply smiled and told me that to be part of this world
 * meant to be ready to face it. I'm not sure I understand what she means, but it drives me
 * crazy. I left home in the middle of the night to see Emily at her house, and I spent the
 * whole day there. Maybe it's time for me to leave mother's house and live my life, just like
 * Emily. I love mother so much, but it frustrates me so when she refuses to talk about my
 * conversion.
 * 17th February 1915
 * Tonight, I'm as sad as I am excited, for I'm about to leave this house for good. Mother
 * has agreed to let me have my own flat in the West End, as long as it is not too far from
 * her house. I had to promise her I would be very careful. I told her how much I love her
 * and she told me she was proud of me. I understand now that she only wants me to be as
 * strong and independent as she is. I must admit I am very thankful for all she taught me
 * through these years. She made the woman I am today. Now it's time for me to choose
 * where to go from here. Whatever I'm going to do with my life, it's up to me. All I know is
 * this: if I ever choose to become an immortal. I will not involve my mother in my choice. For
 * this is my life, and I'm responsible for my actions.
