CHAPTER THREE SHYNEICE: Being ten years old without a mom is such a struggle, but I knew that I had a job to do. When my mom died I didn't understand what was going on but as I got older my dad carefully explained what happened and from that day forward I decided to help my dad out as much as I could . We were living comfortably in a big house and I had everything that I could need expect a mom of course. I never saw my dad bring around another women probably cause he missed my mom or something but I also wanted him happy I'm sure my mom wouldn't mind. I was a straight A student and always did my best so I'm sure whatever new mom I received she would love me and give me all that I needed. I saw pictures of my mom and realized I looked so much like her and my dad. They looked so happy, now all my dad does is frown and looks depressed at times. If I could bring my mom back for him I would but I knew that was impossible. I was currently in my room doing my homework when I heard a knock on my door; I got up and opened the door to see my dad standing there with a smile on his face. I must admit he was looking very nice today so I wonder what was the occasion.
"Hey sweetie, what you in here doing with the door closed?"
"Doing my homework, you know I like silence when I'm focusing on my work."
My dad laughed a little but I was serious, I always liked to be in a quiet room while I focus.  It was better for me that way and I always got more done, if I had the radio on I would be dancing to every song that came on and I would never get anything done.
"Well I have something to tell you  ... Well ask you is the more proper way to say it."
"What's up dad, you can ask me anything."
"Well you know that I been single ever since your mom died, but I was thinking that maybe I need to find me a women and possibly get you a new mom so what do you say?"
"I think it's a great idea, I think that would be just fine if you're ready then I'm behind you all the way. I may be young but I do want my dad to be happy. "I said pinching his cheeks like he was a baby or something.
He laughed and pushed my hand away.
"Look baby, I don't want you to feel as if I'm trying to replace your mother you know she will always be in my heart."
"Dad don't be silly dad I'm sure mom would be happy.. I said with my head kinda low.
"Baby girl what's wrong?"My dad asked me.
"Nothing dad uh... I really have a lot of homework to do so can I please have some privacy please?"
"Sure sweetie, get your work out I know how it's important to you." He said walking out while blowing me a kiss.
I closed my door and laid across my bed with a strange feeling inside that I couldn't explain, my mind was racing and my heart was pounding. Something was defiantly wrong and I had to figure out what it was. I wanted to impress the new lady that my dad could possibly bring over and I was having all these problems and I had to fix this quick. What I didn't know was my dad was bringing home an ever bigger problem.
Later that night after dinner I decided to get ready for bed early, I felt something pulling on me and no matter how hard I tried to shake it, it just wouldn't go away. I closed my eyes and saw an image locked up in chains and when this lady called my name I knew who the voice belonged to. I looked at her as she gave me direction. When I jumped up out of my sleep I knew I had something to do but the only question was how. How was I going to save her and how much time did  I have?
