Secret

Runaways and Accidents (edited)

Katherine's POV•••••

I paced back and forth praying that my parents would call saying they found Anthony. Yet another fight between me and him happened, causing him to run away. Looking back on it now, I realize it may have been my fault. I had told him the same thing I tell him everyday since he started dating Alexander, you know to get better friends and turn his life around. Since he had hooked up with Alex he had been drinking, smoking, and doing drugs. This time I had finally pushed it. The last thing I knew he had told me he acted out because I was mom and dad's favorite and then he ran out. It had been 4 hours since he left and only 30 minutes since my parents had left to look for him. I gave him 3 hours to cool off and when he still wasn't back I started to panic and had spent the other 30 minutes calling everyone he was close to. Then, I told my parents. They were angry about not telling them, but then complimented me on being responsible. I started thinking about places Anthony could've gone. Suddenly, a knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts. I ran over to the door and pulled it open "I'm so glad everything is o-" I stopped when I saw the person at the door wasn't my parents and Anthony. It was a cop. He wore a smile, that wasn't really a smile, a fake smile. I invited him in, worry clouding my eyes. I looked over at him and he opened his mouth "Ms.Row, there has been a terrible accident," he started. "What happened? Is my family okay?" I asked quickly, worry in my words. He shook his head and I started crying. "There was a car accident, but I think it was more on the lines of there was a murder and whoever did it made it seem like a car accident." I started balling my eyes out, but before I said anything he escorted himself out. My parents were dead, and my brother no where to be seen. ( very short I know and I apologize )
