My vision is blurry and my head is pounding where am I?. My vision cleared I was in my bedroom in my bed how did I get here? last thing I remembered I was at camp with Regan in my cabin. I got dizzy when I stood up and almost lost my balance. I can hear mom and dad talking in the other room " daddy?" he put his coffee down on the kitchen counter.

He looked like he hasn't slept for days " pumpkin, you're awake. How are you feeling? come sit down on the couch" grabbing my arm leading me to the couch.

" What happened? how did I get here? last thing I remembered I was at camp" my head ached and daddy could tell.

" Joyce get the painkillers out of the cabinet" mother obeyed before getting on her knees in front of me.

I put the pill in my mouth and drank the cup of water " you gave us quite a scare. Thank god you're not seriously hurt" putting her hand on my knee.

" Daddy, what is she talking about?" they looked at each other.

I don't remember anything that happened that last night at camp " Regan, where's Regan?" why can't I remember?.

" Your friend" I interrupted my mother mid sentence.

" My girlfriend. She came to camp with me. Is she at home? I want to see her" daddy pulled me back down.

" Something happened at camp but right now you need some rest. Read the new cosmo" I saw my face in the reflection of the glass.

I had a black eye it hurt when I touched it maybe that's why I went home. Was that the incident?.

I tried to read the magazine my mind kept on wondering off all I can think about is Regan. Is she still at camp, is she at her dad's, or is she home in Shadyside?

I grabbed the TV remote as there is only a couple of channels we didn't have a lot to choose from

" Sheila, don't watch the news" mother called out from the kitchen.

" Why?" I questioned.

" Cause the news is disturbing and I don't want you to see it" any little thing happens in shadyside or sunnyville it'll end up on the news.

I didn't even think about watching the news now it it's all I want to watch. I tried to watch one of those funny sitcoms but my mind kept on saying turn on the news, turn on the news.

I gave in and changed the channel to NBC " we'll see you after the break" mother and daddy recognized the news anchors voice. Mother grabbed the TV remote out of my hand " I told you not to turn on the news!" she shouted.

" Why? what are you hiding from me? I'm bound to find out sometime" daddy grabbed the remote from her hand.

" We'll watch it with her" they sat both sides of me.

" Are you sure you want to watch it?" mother asked.

" it can be disturbing" daddy said.

" The whole world is disturbing".
