Once and Never again

~Chapter 1~

~Amber's POV~

Today was supposed to be a good day but that's not what the world had intended for me.It started like any other normal day I woke up to that loud obnoxious alarm clock at 7:00 am and my mother had just called me down for breakfast. I hurried down the stairs to get breakfast before my sister Hannah ate it all.I had made it down the stairs just in time to get my food before Hannah ate it all.I thanked my mom for saving it for me and holding my sister back as I was talking to mom Hannah Glared at me.
      After I ate my breakfast I made my way to the window to check the weather. I looked outside and saw it was raining.My eyes glistened with joy. We didn't have school today as it was a weekend. Back then when it was raining me and Hannah would always try and go play in the rain somehow convincing our mom.. well half the time, but this time.... something bad was going to happen...
     I told Hannah it was raining, and she started hopping around with anticipation, I just chuckled at her action and told her we should go ask mom if we could play in the rain.Hannah stopped for a moment and nodded, so we headed to mom, Hannah already jumping up and down again. We asked our mom, and she  surprisingly said yes. So we headed outside and played our favorite game. Tag.. We were running round and round. Surprisingly there were more cars today than usual.
  
❗⚠️ TW SOON /BLOOD/ ⚠️❗

  We didn't exactly keep the yard that clean so Hannah ended up tripping over a huge stick and landed strait in the road before she could get up a semi was coming.Hannah couldn't get up she was stuck in between two sticks.I was in shock and couldn't reach her in time. The next thing I know she was dead...Blood scattered all over the road,the grass, and some even on me.I screamed in horror and in realization that I had Just lost my sister.

    My mom ran outside wondering what I was screaming about, but as soon as she got there she stopped dead in her tracks.She started crying historically.We sat there for awhile just crying and mourning the loss of my sister.We eventually calmed down and called the police.
     When the police got there they asked us what happened.I sat there and told them everything.Crying while doing so.I didn't realize I was having a panic attack.The police ran over to me trying to calm me down it took almost 20 minutes till I calmed down. I went inside soon after and cleaned up.... the blood washing off and going into the drain....I was never the same after that.
     
❗⚠️ TW OVER⚠️❗

The weekend had passed and it was time to go back to school for a new school year. My eyes are still puffy red because, I cried and mourned for Hannah. 'My sister,my other half. What am i supposed to do without her?' I thought... The funeral was going to be next weekend. My heart was still shattered Moms was too. She cried and mourned just like I did. What was I to do? I couldn't help. First it's dad then it's my sister. My dad had passed away when I was 5 due to Cancer so I couldn't do anything about it. The other kids just stared at me as I walked to my seat. When I got to my seat I sat down with some stray tears going down my cheek. The other students just shrugged it off thinking it was just my time of the month. When my first hour was over it was time for the second hour and somehow it was worse than the first hour.

   It was now time for lunch and I had decided that I would go sit on the roof. After I got my lunch and headed toward the roof someone had tripped me, I looked over to see who it was and to my horror it was my worst enemy.......William. I quickly scrambled to my feet and ran away. "Forget the roof" I thought. You don't ever want to run into him he's the school bully some people have even gone to the hospital their injuries were so bad. I instead went to the gardens to eat lunch. It's peaceful , and beautiful there anyway. By the time I finished my lunch it was time for my next hour. My schedule got mixed up so I am a little lost but I'm sure I can figure it out. My original schedule was ~ELA,MATH,ART,SCIENCE,LUNCH,GEOLOGY,DANCE,LIFE SKILLS~ my mom had signed me up for dance and I very quickly changed my schedule it's the same schedule but dance turned into P.E. so now I have to go to geology? As I tried to remember where to go, I bumped into someone and guess who it was ,William. I quickly got up and mumbled an apology, but before I could go he grabbed my hand and held me still. I looked at him shocked. He just stared at me with his stone cold gray eyes. I pulled my arm gently and asked him if I could go since I was already late to class already. He said nothing and still just stared at me. I asked again and he let go. I whispered sorry and left still confused on where to go.

     I decided to go to the principal's office to tell them what happened and why i'm not in class. They talked to me and told me not to miss class again and that this time it's a warning. So I thanked them and went on my way. By the time I got there it was already time for my next class. So I collected my work and went to the next class. Now it was time for P.E. also known as torture for some kids. I changed into my gym clothes and went to where we were meant to go. Which ended up with me putting my hair up, but when I did everyone saw my red puffy eyes knowing I had been crying. They ignored it and went on with class. We ran 2 blocks today as the teachers usually have us run 2 blocks on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On Tuesday and Thursday we only run 1 block. After running we did normal P.E. stuff and then went to our next class. Life Skills. We learned how to sew and cook and all that stuff.

~TIME SKIP~ (BECAUSE I'M LAZY)

When I got home mom wasn't there I looked all over the house and still nothing. So I called her over and over and over again. She never answered I started getting worried. So I called the Police...... They told me she had been killed earlier today.... I stood there silent as the officer was trying to talk to me. All I heard for the next few minutes was loud ringing . All I could think was that it was first my Dad then my sister now my mom? Am I next? When the officer finally snapped me out of it I was hysterically crying.......
