It's been two hours since I've started my art work and it's looking great so far, but that's when I hear the door open and two people's voices.
Riley and Addison.
Letting out a sigh, I took a break from completing it and went downstairs to get myself a snack.
"Olivia hey." Riley said.
I just waved in response and continued walking to the kitchen.
I made myself a nice bowl of fruit and sat at the table whilst I pulled my phone and texted xavier
Me: heyy Xavier
Xavier: hey Olivia
Me: what you doinggggg
Xavier: dealing with a clingy child that I just met today. Oh wait that's you.
Me: wowwww I'm not child. I turn 17 soon.
Xavier: but at the moment your 16 so your a child.
Me: you know what I'm going. Bye Xavier -_-
Xavier: see you in class tomorrow.
Letting out a little giggle as I finished my fruit, I washed my bowl up and went out into the back garden and sat on the swing enjoying the fresh air.
I saw may let Hugo out and he jumped onto my lap. He isn't the best dog to have on your lap. But he thinks he is small enough to sit on people's lap.
We stayed out the for a good few hours before may called me in for bed.
Hugo followed me up to bed and laid at the bottom of my bed whilst I got into my cosy PJ's and done my nightly routine.
Quickly I jumped into bed as Hugo decided to lay next to me.
Normally it wouldn't take me long to sleep but tonight I just couldn't sleep, I had someone on my mind.
Mom.
I miss her. I want to know what happened to her. I want to know what that so called father of mine done to her.
I finally started to drift off to sleep...
-
There she is, my mom. I see her right in front of me. Her short black hair with her dark green eyes.
But she doesn't look happy, she looks scared, tired, beaten up. Dead.
She ran towards.
"My darling Olivia, you need to run from your dad."
"Mom where have you been?"
"Quick run!"
"Mom?!"
She started to run away and I turned around to see my dad there. Knife in his hand covered in blood. Ripped clothes.
"Your next Olivia." He said whilst stabbing me.
-
I screamed.
"OLIVIA WAKE UP!" I heard a familiar voice say, pulling me out of this nightmare.
"Riley?" I sobbed.
I finally opened my eyes to see Riley and may there.
"Good boy Hugo, thank you for waking us up."
"What happened?"
"Hugo came barking in my room so we thought something was wrong so we came to check on you." May said as she sat on my bed.
"I had a nightmare that seemed so real." I responded whilst jumping into Riley's arms where I felt safe.
"What happened liv?"
"I saw my mom and she came running at me telling me to run from dad. And I turned around he was there with a bloody knife telling me I'm next.."
The room fell quiet.
"I miss her..."
"We know you do, the police are investigating with what has happened to her liv." Riley comforted me.
"How about you have college off tomorrow and we will contact the police to see what is going on and relax for the day." May said.
"Yeah but instead of relaxing do you think we could help the police try and find my mom?"
"If it makes you happy then yes. Now I'm going back to bed, night Riley, night Olivia."
"Night." We responded as she left.
"Ry ry will you stay with me?"
"Of course liv."
The next morning came around too early, I woke up to see Riley wasn't there and check the time to see it's 8:30am. No wonder why he isn't here, he has college
That when I received a message from xavier.
Xavier: hey where are you?
Me: I'm not in college today, rough night sleep.
Xavier: ah ok, well will you be in tomorrow?
Me: yes I will.
Xavier: great see you then
I put my phone down and went downstairs to make myself something to eat.
"Morning liv." May said.
"Morning."
"Spoke to the police and they said we can go down to the station today."
"Ok I'll go and get ready." I responded whilst finishing my breakfast.
Quickly I put my bowl into the sink and went upstairs to get dressed.
I decided to wear my favourite pair of leggings, a tank top, followed with a flannel over it.
Quickly I went back downstairs and we got into the car.
Once we arrived to the police station, may spoke to the officers in charge of the case whilst I stood behind her.
"Her father isn't answering any of our questions. We only have one more option which could be dangerous."
"What is it?" May questioned.
"We get Olivia to question him."
I looked up in shock and horror. I have to face my dad to get answers? I can't do it. But at the same time I want to know what's happened.
"ill do it." I responded with a firm face.
They took me into a room full of cameras and then brought him in. He had a massive smirk on his face as they left.
"My darling Olivia I've missed you." He said.
"Cut the bull crap, you are going to answer my questions no matter what." Venom slurred in my words.
"What do you want."
.......
What could Olivia find out from her dad?
Will he tell her what happened?
Hope you enjoy☺️
