Hi, I'm Elsa! When I was a kid, something terrible happened to my family… Mom, dad and I were on a yacht trip. One day, there was a fire on our boat, and it started to sink. We tried to get to the lifeboat but were separated by a thick wall of smoke, and I lost sight of my parents. Then, I saw mom’s locket lying close to the fire. I tried to grab it, but it was too hot, and all I got was a burn. Mom was screaming for me to escape, so I jumped into the lifeboat. My memories after that were fuzzy... When I came to, I was in an orphanage. My lifeboat had been washed ashore. I couldn't remember the faces or even the names of my parents.… So no one could find my relatives. I had no choice but to stay in that orphanage. Ever since then, I had been living in a small beach town. As a reminder of that fateful day, there was a scar on my palm... I had always felt self-conscious about it and tried not to show it to anyone.
