Chapter 18
After Caleb and I chatted and we were done "lovin" our McDonald's. It was already late, so we said our goodnight and parted ways.
As I walked into my room tiredness overwhelmed me and I belly flopped into my bed. Not too long after a stranger entered my room. His shadow slowly moved across the room without making a sound. As he came closer to me my heart started to race faster and faster. I started to scream and yell for help, but no one came. He came within 3 feet of me and just When I thought he was going to pull out a knife and stab me, he pulled out instead a brown teddy bear. He started to walk out the room, but then he turned around to remove the mask from his face - just then someone started to shake me. "Annabelle sweetheart, it's time to wake up, the doctors say your ready to go home." My aunt said. "But I'm not, in fact I think I'm just getting a headache thinking about going back home, and back to school." I responded furiously.
"Annabelle we''ll discuss this later, for right now I have to get to work and you have spent enough time here. Lets go!" She said yelling at me. " Okayy, I said while taking off the hospital clothes and slipping into a pair of jeans and a sweater. "But you have to promise me when we get back home, you''ll help me find my father." I said pausing for a brief moment." If that's what you really want, I''ll help you. She answered with a smile. "Thanks." I said. "Sweetie I love you." She said while squeezing me to death. I didn't realize how much I missed being home til I stepped into the house. I missed everything, I missed my life. For the past two months things how been really different. Coming back home, reminded me, of how much I had that cared about me. While I was thinking and slightly daydreaming, I remembered I had to text all my friends about me coming back home.
Me: Hey! Guess wat?
Caleb: Wat?
Me: I'm back home!!!!
Caleb: Oh my gosh, are you freaking kidding me.
Me: Yeah
Caleb: That's great, luckily for you, I'm running late.
Me: lol, again
Caleb: Yeah I woke up late. I''ll see u soon.
Me: Ok.
~ Five minutes later the bell rings
"Hey." I screamed practically jumping into his arms. "Hey !" He responded while closing the door behind him. "So what's going on, like in school." I asked eager to hear. "Nothing much, just the usual, insane teachers, crazy kids. Oh and winter formal is coming up." He said. " Oh seems cool." I said sarcastically, he laughed. " Caleb."I said. "Yeah." He asked. " I have something to tell you." I said nervously. "Go ahead." He responded. "When I was in the hospital, I found that you were my biological brother and our aunt was my mom. "Annabelle, are under anestia? " He asked concernly. "No, I can prove to u, I''ll send you a copy of my birth certificate." I said. "Is this for real." He asked shocked. "Yeah." I answered. "Annabelle, I have to go... get some air." "I''ll see you later?" I asked him. "Hopefully." He replied. As he left, I started to wonder if my family was hiding any other things from me.
