Just a bit, while it lasts

The creation of darkness is a development. It all has a beginning. 1937. Tom Riddle is a mysterious child at Wool's Orphanage, London. Everything is so boring - until he meets Joelle Cole, Mrs Cole's sixteen year old niece. She tells him to never give up. He never does. And he never forgets years later. But can she help him?
