right now me and my little sister Rosey are playing just dance 2017 while Mom is cooking dinner.
"ok, girls can you take a break from Shakiria? I made spaghetti and garlic bread."
pausing the game I pick my 6-year-old sister up and throw her over my shoulder, she screams but it turns into a giggle "Don't manhandle your sister what if you dropped her causing her to hit her head and then she bled death!" my mom screeched as I entered the dining room still holding Roseys foot while she pokes at my back
"I'm not going to drop her, she'll be fine." I still put her down though I don't wanna risk getting grounded "When is dad getting home?" I pull out Roseys seat as Mom sets glasses of water on the table.
"he should be here any minute, why don't you call him while I get the napkins."
I shake my head at her and walk to the home phone and call Dad it rang twice before he answered "Yes?"
"hey Dad, how far are you from getting home?"
"I am in the subdivision now."
"oh ok then ill see you in a second, bye."
"bye, kiddo."
when I get back to the dining room Rosey has already started to eat. "what did he say?" Mom asks while adding parmesan onto her plate of food before I could answer Dad opened the door when he stepped into the dining room he didn't have his suit jacket on or his work shoes
"How are my flowers?"
"Great." we all responded at the same time
"Well I heard one of you had a very eventful day." rosey looks down at her feet "Does that person want to talk about it?" rosey shakes her head no and my parents sigh
****
"Rose darling we have to talk about what happened at school." my dad said after dinner
"I'm sorry." tears are running down her face her voice is barely a whisper
"Just tell us what happened baby." my mom said softly to her
"she kept saying things about my red hair and about my body, and then she pushed me to the ground I didn't mean to hurt her I just wanted her to leave me alone so I pushed her back as hard as I could and she fell into the water." the girl was most definitely Abby that bitch of a child has been harassing my sister since kindergarten and the school never did anything about it, not even a silent lunch
"Okay, darling we wanted to hear your side of things Abby told her parents and the school something else." while my parents are talking I grab all the dishes and take them to the kitchen
only a couple minutes pass by and Mom walks into the kitchen putting the leftovers into glass containers "So how was work today?" she asks handing me another dish to wash
"fine same customers as usual."
"what about school?"
"boring, I have a history paper to write so ill be busy for the rest of the night."
my mom nods at me as she puts the leftovers in the fridge "Why don't you go start that while I load the dishwasher." she walks over to me and ushers me away
"Are you sure?" she nods as I walk to my room
"just so you know your father and Rosey went to get ice cream to help cheer her up." my mom yells as I reach the top of the stairs
"Okay!! can I message him to get me something?!"
"yes but don't expect him to get it for you." I pull out my phone and send my dad a quick text
'Hey if you don't mind can you get me a dessert?'
';) Sure!'
Yesss!!!!!!
ok now to do this paper, what historical figure will I write about???
OH! I KNOW
I'll do William Henry Harrison the ninth president!!!
it's 11:45 by the time I finish someone rings the doorbell
"Can you get that?! I'm in the bathroom!" is dad not back yet
when I get to the door and open it I see two cops at the door "Hello we need to speak to Miss. Heart."
"why? do you have a warrant?"
"This isn't that type of house call."
my mom walks up behind me looking between me and the cops, "What's the matter officers?"
"Are you Miss. Heart?" the shorter guy asks
"Yes? What's going on?"
"I think you may need to sit down, we have some news regarding your husband."
"he isn't here right now he took our baby to get ice cream..."
"I'm sorry miss but there was an incident." tears were streaming down her face as her knees gave out I reached out and grabbed her keeping her from hitting the ground
"My baby's" her voice broke and she screamed
"Your daughter is in the hospital she is having emergency surgeries however your husband died while blocking the airbag."
"Mom we need to go to the hospital." I turn to the cops "Which hospital?"
"saint marys." I nod and grab mom purse from the side table as she cries on the floor
"Mom we need to go see Rosey." I grab her arm and drag her out of the house opening the passenger door to her car she slides in and buckles
"do you have a license?" the short cop asks
"A permit, she is over 21 so it's legal."
before they can stop me I get in the driver's seat and start the car as I pull out of the driveway I buckle
****
"I'm here to see my sister, she was in a car accident the cops told me she was here."
"Oh, the little girl?"
"yes, Rosey she's six her birthday is next month." I ramble off until my mom pats my shoulder
"Let me get the surgeon." the nurse behind the desk says a pitiful look on her face. Why would she look at me like that? Is Rosey dead? is she on life support?
after what feels like forever the doctor comes out holding a chart. "alright Miss. Heart?" he looks at me and my mom "Unfortunately-" my mom breaks down and starts sobbing people all around are staring at us with pity "Your daughter didn't make it."
