Teenage Years
Prologue
''Just hanging out at
home.'' She chuckled, grabbing another popcorn
from the bowl and dropped herself on the couch. Her parents and
her l
ittle brother went to his baseball game. To be honest, baseball
wasn't
her thing. Sports never cooperated well with her which meant,
no
scholarships in sports. Her friend Kayla, her best friend since
they were
in diapers, replied with a small chuckle of her own and the phone
went
quiet for a while.
She glanced at the clock abd
finally realized they were late. Really, darn late.
It was past nine o'clock at night and her brother wasn't
aloud to be up that
late. Maybe they were stuck in traffic and were too lazy to pick
up their phone
and call her saying they are going to be late today. Then she
heard the doorbell.
The person seemed in a extreme rush, pressing it again and again
and again.
''Who is that?'' She heard Kayla's curious
voice. Fay whispered a small no idea
and walked over to the door, looking out the windows by the door.
When she
saw the police uniform, she frowned. She was a goody two
shoes.
''I'll call you back, a police man is at my
door.'' She whispered before shutting the
phone and throwing it on the sofa. After a while of deep
breathing and sighing,
she opened the door, surprised by how tall he was compared to how
he seemed
by the window. She gave him an uneasy smile and greeted him
weakly, ''Hi sir.''
''Are you....'' he searched through his paper,
''Fayonna Clones.''
Fayonna's body was screaming for her to close the door on his
face. ''Yup, that's me.''
She said, trying to sound excited. It only came out in a awkard
tone and the police
looked at her with pity. She frowned again. What was going
on?
''Fayonna, I don't know how to say this to you
but...'' The police man sighed
before clearing his throat and looking at her in the eyes,
''Your parents and
I supposed your younger brother were into a terrible accident
this afternoon.''
''What do you mean?'' Her jaw was shaking. Her
legs weren't even able to support
her weight anymore and she almost fell to the floor and kept her
grasp on the door.
The obvious was right in front of her but, she didn't want to
believe it. Until, she
heard his last words and let herself drop to the floor, letting
every last tear shed
desperatly as she crawled into a little small ball.
''I'm sorry for your
loss.''
