We rushed into the car, buckled ourselves up, and stared out the windows, listening to the morning radio. The news said that there was yet another homicide on Batterwalk Beach. A McDonald's ad played, killing the mood.
"You know sweetheart, if they really want to make us sad, they wouldn't, BUT A STINKING MCDONALD'S AD!" Mom said.
"Well who's yelling now, huh?" I reacted.
"Hey! Only I can say that to you, I am your mother!" mom replied, "You chicken butt".
"Wow........ bringing that back up huh?" It was a very awkward ride up to Sunnyside Daycare. We soon arrived at the Daycare and the first thing I did was find Blitz, Isadora, and Wilbur. Well, after I put little Mar-Mar in the toy room. She goes under special treatment before she does anything so she can be healthy and safe. The town I live in is not the nicest and definitely not the cleanest, but I try my best to protect all the people in my town. That's the only reason why I stay in this awful place.
"Hey Miriam!" said a distant voice. It was Blitz. "I am so glad you're here! You will not believe what happened today." She's hyperventilating real fast.
"Hey, hey. Clam down and take a breathier. I don't want you unaliving!" We took a seat at the crayon table and calmed down. Is she okay? Am I okay? Why was she running? Is one of the babies dying? Is there a fire? Am I hallucinating........? Do I hear a voice?
"Miriam...... Miriam.... Miriam!" screamed Blitz.
"Huh? Did I space out again?" I said, worrying.
"I'm afraid so, Miri." I'm supposed to be taking care of her, she was the one running like a T-Rex on a rampage. Think, Miriam. Think!
"Miri! Are you okay?" said Blitz.
"Who's this Miriam girl? She seems very sweet!" I really just said that.
"You're overreacting. I'm fine. I just came to get you, but I didn't know where you were, so I got scared. The children love you, girl! So, don't think otherwise." Blitz is as sweet as can be, but she is mostly cold to be honest.
"Miriam......... It's been a while since I talked to you!" said a creepy voice.
"WHO ARE YOU?! LEAVE ME ALONE!" This voice it sounds awfully familiar.
"You don't remember me?" What........
"Hey daydreamer, wake up!" Huh! dang it. I did it again. It's the 6th time this week. Why can't I just be normal?! Neither the less, spell right after every weekend! Wait a minute.
"Isadora!" I yelped. "There, I woke M up. Now I need to get back to the ki- THE KIDS!" Again with the irresponsibility! Get it together, Miriam. No mysterious voice is going to keep me from doing my job.
"Did you seriously forget the kids?" Isadora said.
"Listen, Dora the Explorer, I have to go take care of the kids. So can you please be nice and go find map?" I said, annoyed. Isadora and I are rivals, NOT friends. We do get ice cream together though, so it's not a big deal. Mom must be worried about me. I have to get going. "Hey guys! Tell me when you see Wilbur so I can talk to him! I'm going to take care of the children."
"That you forgot right?" said Blitz.
"Yes yes." Wait. Do I hear crying babies? Oh no, the sweet Children! Oh no, what happened?!
"Sweethearts! Are you oka-" .............................! "They're asleep." Haha....... I'm going crazy, aren't I? The disease has finally tried to devour and corrupt me. I still hear babies crying. Please stop crying. Everything will be okay. "Where's this sound coming from?"
"No idea."
"OH MY SOGGY MOLDY CHEESE NUGGETS!!!" I screamed. "This is the end of the world. I'm going to get pierced by a pitchfork!!!!!!!!!!"
"Miriam! It's me! Wilbur." Wilbur? Wilbur? I know a Wilbur. Oh wait.
"Wilbur! Oh am I glad to see you!" I said so revealed isn't it relieved? Or is it revealed?
"Your voice is annoying when you scream." said Wilbur. Rejected by a friend. My heart is broken. I must dig a grave for myself now.
"Come on, Miriam. I'll buy you Chicken Nuggets." Wilbur is the dad of the group. He's very nice unless you're being annoying. At least he's honest.
I don't get it. Why is this stuff happening to me? Is this a sign that something's coming, or am I hallucinating?
"Hey dad?" I said to Wilbur.
"Yes?"
"Did you actually hear those babies crying?" I was scared to ask this but I needed an answer.
"Yes, and you're not going crazy, Miriam. Ever since Dale unalived, you have been acting weird. It's going to be okay, Mei-Mei." I don't know why but I started to cry.
"Thank you Wilbur!" I replied. I hugged him like I used to hug my dad, dad.
"Also, you were oddly specific with the way you were going to die. Did you think about how you wanted to die? asked Wilbur.
"I'd be lying if I said no." I responded.
"You're a mess." Wilbur said.
"Agreed."
The day passed by quickly, and right now, it's 3:39 PM, almost time to go home and do chores.
It's 3:50 PM. Just 10 more minutes!
Finally! 4:00 PM! Time to go home from Sunnyside Daycare!
