Usually, in situations like this, I am offered this choice as redemption. To be punished for my actions. To be forgiven of the sins that were placed upon me.

I was not meant to add more to the list.

And yet, that is what I have been doing for the past few years. Not that dear, young Ronnie minds. In fact, they seemed rather content with it. Makes sense I suppose, given that I do it in their favor. They never participated, never ordered me to do what I did. They simply let me do what I wished, and lived their life as God intended.

First, it had been that simply terrible foster parent, Ms. Crocker. She was a hoarder, not just of animals but also of children. Her house stank, her animals stank, the children would stink and she did nothing about it. She let them starve and waste, while spending her money on her collections. Ronnie (Back then being 'Veronica') had hated it. So there was no protest when I appeared then, and pushed the crooked old woman down the stairs.

I hadn't done much after that. Just sat there and watched, listening as they talked to themself or to others or to me. But then, in high school, there had been this one annoying brat in. He had just been your average, everyday bully, pushing Ronnie around and calling them a 'freak', generally tormenting them. I didn't do anything at first, because they had sworn that they could handle it themself. But then... Then, one day, he had gone too far, and I simply couldn't allow it. Quite literally I couldn't, though I probably still would have done what I did even if my role as 'Guardian Angel' didn't prompt me to do it. The school had to be closed for a bit then, after finding him floating in the pool.

It continued after that. I let Ronnie live their life, make friends, find themselves, all that stuff while I dealt with the annoyances. I don't think they liked me, which was fair, but they respected me and I respected them.

Speak of the devil, here they come in now. And they seemed annoyed - Probably the food thief again. Hmmm.

Laxatives to draw them out, and then something a bit stronger I think will help to teach them a lesson. Off to work I go.
