January 2009

I slowly walked across the silent room. The sounds of repeated taps my brother was making. We both sighed as our eyes met the clock. Tick tock. Almost 10:00 at night. Our parents still weren't home.
They left over a hour ago, trying to get us food. I looked over at my brother, Jake, his stomach let out a low growl. I shot up my head as it lowered. I knew I was falling asleep, but I couldn't. I had to watch my brother. We haven't slept for days.

My brother looked at me, "Are they going to be okay?"
I slowly shrugged, "I don't know."
He looked at clock again. "I'm scared, Adri. Really scared."
I looked at him, "Everything is going to be fine."
"I hope you're right," Jake whispered, he shut his eyes. "I'm going to take a nap."
"Mkay. I'll wake you up when something happens." I told him.
"You better. G'night." Jake replied as he shifted his position.
"Night." I said, reaching for his arm.

Jake quickly fell asleep.
I felt my eyelids closing.
Then darkness appeared.
"Wake up, wake up." Voices chanted.
I opened my eyes, but they wouldn't open.
"Wake up, wake up."
I finally got my eyes open and opened my mouth in horror.
There was blood everywhere.

"What the-" I paused as I forced myself to stand up.
I pushed the dust off my jeans and looked around.
I saw my parents with their usual smile. I walked towards them slowly, not knowing what to do.
My father opened his hand and motioned me to come closer.
I nodded once and I took a step, then another.
My mother didn't move, she stood their as if she was frozen.
When I was a foot away from my father, I heard a sound.
Loud and clear.
Something wasn't right.
I heard a honk and a scream.
Another scream followed, more high-pitched.
Then I realized who they sounded like, my parents.
My parent's smile turned upside down into a sad frown.
I watched in horror as my parents began to fade.
"Good-bye, Adri." My father said, waving his hand.
"Miss you." The words escaped her mouth into a whisper. As she faded, her right hand waved as it faded.
"No! Mom! Dad! Where are you? Mom! Come back! Dad! I'm scared!" I screamed. It was no use. I dropped on the floor and sobbed.
Then everything was again, pitch black.

"Wake up!" A faint voice alarmed.
I slowly opened my eyes and the light nearly blinded my eyes.
I finally got used to the light and blinked once, then twice.
I looked around and saw Jake, eyes wide open, staring at me.
I pushed myself up and looked at him.
He looked away, that's when I noticed his hands were watery.
He was crying.
I rose my right arm and shifted on his back to comfort him. "What' wrong?"
"I--It's mom and dad." He replied, more tears met his chin.
His voice was a whisper, nearly faint.
"What about them?" I asked.
Jake just cried more.
I sighed. "Just tell me, Jake, please."
Jake shook his head and his hands covered his teary eyes.
Then the person that owned the shelter, Steven, walked in. "I'm not sure if Jake has told you," he looked over at Jake, who was shaking his head. "An unfortunate tragedy has happened."
I closed my eyes, no wanting to know, but I had to.
Steven continued, "I'm sorry, both of your parents has..."
