Aliyah's pov

The whole ride to the police office I stared out the frosty window. I let my face press against it even though it was bitter cold and it would probably make me break out.

A lump was growing in my throat, my stomach had a petting zoo going on, and my head ached. I just wanted to be with my mom at home. I don't even care if I didn't get to snow board ever again.

When we got to the office Matt rubbed my back signaling that it was time to get up and go inside. As the officer lead us to the place where he was leading us to I started filming scenes in my head.

Imagining my mom sitting there waiting to take me home, the officers saying that my mom couldn't pick me up because the roads were to bad, just say everything is good that's all.

When we got to the waiting room I saw my aunt and uncle crying. Aunt Sarah ran up to me hugging me tightly. I stood there confused to why she's crying and hugging me so tight.

This was just adding on to my suspicions. I watched Matt hug his dad over Sarah's shoulder. I've never actually seen my uncle Mike cry before but it was weird.

She pulled away from the hug letting me breath.

"I'm sorry" she whispered sniffing her nose and wiping her eyes. Sorry for what. A officer finally walked into the room.

"We haven't told her yet" the female officer mentioned.
My aunt and uncle and Matt glared at me.

"Your mom" Aunt Sarah began.
"She" she wiped snot from her nose.
"She um" she began to cry again.
"She didn't make it" she broke down.

A instant bullet hit me directly into the heart. I sat there in shock just staring at a bulletin board full of missing posters. I felt my eyes beginning to welt up with warm tears.

I saw and heard Matt sit down next to my from the corner of my eye. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and patted the side of my arm.
"It's gonna be okay" he began.

It's gonna be okay...

And it's all my fault. My fault. I shouldn't have been so selfish. I shouldn't have be so competitive to want to win so bad. I should have just stayed home. Maybe I should have just caught a ride from Danny's mom. Maybe it should have been me.

I threw my face into my hands and sobbed hard. I don't care how big of a baby I looked like it didn't matter, nothing mattered anymore. I couldn't ever imagine loosing my mom ever.
Nobody should ever have to. I need my mom. I'm only 14, I'm not ready to let go not now.

"Come on hon" Aunt Sarah said softly lifting me out of my seat. I must be going home with them since I have nobody else to go home with.
I'm an only child and just like most people I never met my dad.

I got up and grabbed my snowboard bag. I wanted to leave there at the Police office. I was mad at that stupid thing, it's all because of my bad habit of riding that I'm an orphan now.

My everything hurt, mainly my heart and head. My head felt like someone swung a piece of wood at it as hard as they could. And my heart feels like someone ripped it out of my chest.
