INTERLINKED

"Hey buddy!" Camila cooed as she returned to the apartment in the morning.

She found her mom crashed out on the couch and her siblings in bed.

"You want some breakfast?" Camila asked, Jamie nodded. "Go wake up your sister then, I'll go start it."

Camila left, smiling as she heard her brother shouting for Jenna to wake up.

She put a couple circles of pancake mix on a pan and began to fry them, and in the meantime cut up a couple slices of strawberries which were the twins favourite.

"How about later we go to the park?" She asked as her siblings came out to the kitchen and sat at the table.

"Oo yes!" Jenna and Jamie said together, big smiles on their faces. "Then, will you play dress up with us?"

"Well, I was thinking we could go to the park, I could drop you guys off and I'd go get you guys a surprise? I have some money saved up just for you munchkins."

"Really, Cami? Really?" Jamie's eyes lit up at the sound of a surprise.

"Yes, Jammy."

"Haha, she called you Jammy."

"Stop calling me that!" Jamie whined.

"Never, Jammy." Camila said over dramatically as she walked over to them with two plates of freshly made pancakes, covered in honey and strawberry slices.

The twins scoffed it down their throats quickly and put their dishes in the sink.

"Okay, you two go get ready. Dress warm, it's cold out. If you're good I'll get you some candy with your surprise." Camila smiled as she watched the two running to their room, screaming last one there is a rotten egg.

She washed their dirty plates, then went to her own room to get ready.

She heard banging on her door, and opened it to find Jenna and Jamie snuggled up in large puffer coats that squished their cheeks together. "You two ready?"

"Yes!" Jenna said excitedly.

"Okay, cmon then." Camila grabbed her keys and her phone and followed her siblings out the door. Luckily the park was only two minutes away from their apartment building, and they had a couple friends there.

So, Camila sat at the bench with one of their friends moms and they talked about their lives and watched the kids play on the swings.

"Cami! Cami! Look at what I can do!" Jenna yelled, then spam around as she sat a the swing before picking her feet up and spinning around quickly.

"Wow, Jenny, good job" Camila smiled as she gave Jenna a high five as she ran past her.

They stayed for about an hour until Camila dropped the two back to the apartment and went to go get their surprise.

There was a small town nearby where they lived, it was through the creepy alleyway and on the opposite side to where the deli she worked at was.

There was a small toy shop there that had a couple teddies and trucks inside. She picked out two separate Barbies that Jenna had said she wanted and a couple toy cars for Jamie. Then she got a pack of two nerf guns for the two to play with when she wasn't around.

Then, she stopped at the Deli, said hi to her co worker before grabbing a couple of their favourite candies.

"You seem to be starting a daycare, Cam." Sadie laughed.

"Ha, you could say that." Camila smiled. "Nah, I'm spoiling my two favourites twins, they're probably waiting on the edge of their seats for me right now."

"Aw, that's so cute...I miss those two you need to bring them by again." Aside said.

"I will sometime, I'm sure they miss you two." Camila said. "Anyway, bye Sade! I'll see you tomorrow."

"Bye, Cam." Sadie waved.

It had started to rain, so Camila put the hood to her black jacket up and zipped it up to her neck. Luckily, Sadie had let her take some of the big bags that Kyle kept underneath the counter to put the kids stuff in, so that was nice and safe.

She had her AirPods in, humming to the music that played. So, unfortunately for her she didn't hear the sound of people coming after her before her forearms were being yanked back and the bags in her hand were falling to the floor in an instant.

"What the fuck!?" Camila yelled, the music stopping as the AirPods flew from her ears and her hood was ripped from her head. "Let me go!"

To say her heart was beating was an understatement, it was full on running a 30 mile marathon standing still. There were too many thoughts about what they could want with her, or what they would do to her.

But, those thoughts were wiped from the mind as a cloth was covering her mouth and nose and she was drifting away from consciousness.
