Bella

It's a dark rainy day in New York. Oh, I love rain, it makes me so happy. I sat by the window and stared out the window, forgetting about everything. I have a beautiful view from my two-bedroom apartment. I closed my eyes remembering my awful childhood. "Mom look at me," I said as I laughed while biking. I learned to bike when I was only five. My dad stood by my side to help me not to fall. I heard mom and dad laugh. My mom walked inside. I got out of the bike. Me and dad sat down and looked at our beautiful garden. I heard mom scream. I heard gunshots. My dad immediately took me by my hand and hide me in my toy house and ran back to my mom. I looked out the window and saw him get shot in the head.

I began to cry. The man that had a mask came near the house. I immediately took my hand in front of my mouth so I don't make noise. After some minutes that felt like many hours, they left. I sat inside my play house in shock for many hours. After that I heard a sound in the garden, I quickly looked out. It's my uncle. He was coming to visit us today. He looked so shocked. I quickly opened the door and run as fast as I could to him. "Uncle Alfred!" I shouted while running toward him. He looked up at me. "Bella!" He shouted.

I quickly hugged him, he hugged me back. "Are you alright?" He asked. "Yes."
I kept crying. "Let's get out of here," he said. He sound very surprised. We backed back. We held each other hands. I looked at my dad. He is laying there, with blood all over himself. "Bella, look at me," my uncle said. I looked away from my dad and up to my uncle. It looks like he is going to cry. Well, of course, his brother is laying on the ground dead. "Don't look away, just look at me," he said. "Alright?" He asked. I nodded. We walked away quickly.

I cried remembering that. I looked at my phone. It was 12:06. I went to bed and tried to sleep, but I couldn't. Without realizing I slept. My alarm rang. The clock is 10:00 in the morning. I stood up from bed and went to the bathroom. I washed my face and brush my teeth. I went to the shower and took a cold shower to wake up.

It's Saturday so me and my best friends, Clare, Ava, and Alice decided to go to a cafe, Olivia can't, she is in London. I went to my bedroom to get some clothes. I decided to wear a T-shirt and lose jeans, something easy. I heard my doorbell. I went to open the door. It's Clare. "Hey, are you ready?" She asked. I nodded. We walked out. We walked together to the cafe. We saw Ava and Alice sitting by a table waiting for us. "Hey guys," Ava said loud enough to hear her. "Hi, did you guys order yet?" I asked while I sat down beside Ava. "No," Ava and Alice said at the same time. We ordered a coffee and a sandwich.
