See Me

Chapter 1

The first time I disappeared I was 7 months old. My mother was facing the sink, doing dishes and when she turned around I was not where I was supposed to be. She searched the entire house and when she came back to the kitchen with tears in her eyes she found me on my high chair smiling at her. When it happened for a second time my mom told my father. He, at first did not believed my mom, he thought sleepless nights were catching up to her. He told my mom to go take a nap and when he turned around to play with me I was gone again. It was clear that my disappearence was not related to my mom being exhausted. They did not know what was the reason so they took me to a doctor which he laughed and send them back. Few years passed and when it was time for me to go to school they decided it would be the best if I stayed home, they started to homeschool me.

The morning I turned 16 the door bell rang. My mom who is not used to having company over looked at my dad and went to the door. In a few minutes a woman with white hair and a man with sunglasses came into the living room. My mother had a scared look in her face she ran towards me and stood in front of me like she wanted to guard me from these people but I was not scared actually I had a feeling like I know these people my whole life which was absurd thinking I never saw or met anyone besides my familiy. The woman with white hair had a smile on her face, she casually sat down on the couch. Even though her hair was white she did not look like more than 30. There was a silence in the living room, I had no idea who these people and I was very curious about them. They did not exactly looked like the people I saw thorough the window or in movies. They look nearly normal but not quite. The guy with the sunglasses whispered to the women "We should be quick Ms.Adara time is limited and we still have one more place to go." The women looked sternly at the men then she turned towards my mother and said "Hello, my name is Ms.Adara and this is Carson." She turned to me and said "You must be Adora". I nodded yes. My mom looked more scared than ever. "Who are you, how do you know her name?" she said. Ms.Adara smiled softly at her. "We are coming from a school that is for teenagers with special skills. We also know Adora right here has a magnificent ability which makes her the perfect student!" I did not know what to say and by the silence around the room my parents were shocked as much as I was. All of a sudden Carson took of his sunglasses which revealed the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen (not that I saw a lot of eyes myself but still...). The moment I looked into his eyes I felt comfortable and happy. It was a strange feeling, all of the tension in the room disappeared. He said "Your daughter will be happy with us do not worry. Ms.Adara here is the best with students. Your daughter should know how to control her abilities and we will make sure she learns it. You trust us, yes?" My parents had a pleasant smile on their face, they did not exactly looked like they were listening. They almost seemed to be in some kind of trance. They nodded and turned to me. My father said "You should go pack Adora we would love you to learn how to control your abilities." I was scared. I did not know what was happening. They never let me out but all of a sudden two people came and I can go to a school away from here? Going to a real school was always my dream but I never thought this will be the case.

As I was packing my clothes and my other belongings the only thing in my mind was what was happening to my parents. All these years they did not let me leave the house, they were scared that I would disappear again in front of everyone. This caused no one being invited to our house too. The only people I saw in reality was my parents and my grandfather who passed last year. I even could not attend to his funeral. My world consisted of my parents, Netflix, a little bit of internet and school work. But suddenly all of the rules changed. Around the 4th time I disappeared my parent found out I was not going somewhere else I was staying where I was but I was becoming invisible. They think the reason it happens was my emotions. If I get scared or sad or angry or a little bit too excited I would become invisible. On my 8th birthday my parents bought me a doll house and the moment I saw it I get so excited that I became invisible. As I was thinking about my parents another topic came to my mind. What kind of a school that I was going? They said something about abilities and teaching to control them but why, what did they gain from this? When I went downstairs with my bags my parents still had the same look in their eyes. I hugged them goodbye and Carson took my bags from me and started to go towards the door with the woman. I followed them I turned to look at my parents one last time before then I got out of the house.
