(A/N: P.O.V changes ahead)
Hi, my name is Rosie. I have a little sister named Lena. I'm 15 years old and she's 6. 3 years ago, our parents died when they were returning from California on the plane. The plane was attacked by robbers and ended in a crash. We grew up with our grandparents. A year later, our grandpa died to an incurable illness.
Anyways, back to the present. My sister came home from school and said her teacher created a tiny poem and she loved it. It kinda was catchy. But I forgot about it.
....
A few days later, we couldn't find Lena!
*Lena's P.O.V* (before going missing)
I was playing with my dolls in the playroom when I heard someone call me. It was very faint. "Lena!" "Yes?!" I shouted back as a response. No reply. I went to the kitchen thinking grandma was looking for me but she wasn't there. I went to our bedroom (Lena's and Rosie's) and asked Rosie if she called me. She shook her head while doing her homework. I wondered a little before going to the garden to see if Grandma was watering her trees. (They have an orchard). I shouted "Grandma!!?" Again, nothing. When I turned around, I felt heavy wind on my back. I turned back to see grandpa standing there, smiling.
Conversation:
Lena: Oh, hey grandpa!
Grandpa: Shh Lena! We don't want anyone to hear us.
Lena: So, wanna play dolls grandpa?
Grandpa: Oh about that...
Lena: Why do you look sad? (She asked, tilting her head)
Grandpa: Grandpa has to go to a happy place.
Lena: Oh! Are you going to Hawaii?
Grandpa: Well, I guess you could say that. Lena: Aww... I will miss you. Grandpa: Don't cry Lena. *sigh* I will too. Lena: When will you come back? Grandpa: I don't think I can... Lena: What?! I'll go with you then! Grandpa: I don't think-
Lena: No! I want to. We will be together.
Grandpa: You know, you'll not be able to see grandma and Rosie ever again.
Lena: Umm... y-yes.Rosie always hangs out with her friends and is always busy like grandma. You're the one who played with me.
Grandpa: Ok ok! *sigh* Come hug me.
Lena: Huh? Why?
Grandpa: Just come...
With that, they both disappear...
*Rosie's P.O.V* (while grandpa and Lena were conversing)
When I was doing my math homework, Lena came and asked me if I had called her. I did not. Grandma was at the library because it was Bingo night. It was so quiet in the house, you could hear a pin drop.
Grandma had left us soup in the kitchen for dinner. I went to call Lena but she wasn't there in the playroom. I searched all over the house but couldn't find her. I got scared. Just then, I saw the back door was left open. Oh! She must be outside playing...? I went out but could't see anyone or anything other than plant tools, the crops, the Orchard and a red ribbon on the floor... Wait... A red ribbon?!That's Lena's! Maybe she was playing here and got lost in the Orchard? I took my phone with me just in case. I searched around for like 15 min. Suddenly, heavy wind was blowing. I thought it was going to rain but... I heard a familiar poem. I thought it was just in my head until it became louder. !!It was the poem that Lena sang! I felt chills down my spine. Then I thought Lena was singing it because she thought she heard me? I don't know why but I had the urge to call 911 for help. I took my phone but it wouldn't turn on! Ugh, stupid me. I shouldn't have been watching those animal videos while doing homework. I looked to my right and left and realised I was lost. I walked around for more than an hour but the creepy atmosphere slowed me down. I got really tired and hungry. I actually didn't eat breakfast or lunch today as I got bullied at school for being fat. I regret not eating. I hope Grandma finds me.
*Rosie's P.O.V* (2 days later)
I had passed out because of hunger. Grandma called the police and had spent 4 hours trying to find us. I'm currently in the hospital and grandma is feeding me. We never did find Lena. *sad sigh* "Rosie! Does it hurt somewhere? Why are you crying?" grandma asked. "I- I miss Lena so much!" I did my best to choke out between my sobs. I never knew I'd miss her so much. I had to get used to it. I wish I could reverse time to play with her and give her more attention...

Moral of the story: Spend time with your loved ones. You never what happens in the future.
I had written this story when I was younger so it probably doesn't make much sense :)
