Angelica's pov

I woke up in my own bed, in Australia. Oh, how I wish this whole thing was just a nightmare.

Today is the day of Emily's funeral. And I have to give a speech, but I don't know how I'm gonna do it, in the condition I'm in.

I got dressed in a black lace dress, that Emily always said looked good on me, and my black wedges. I put on my regular make up, and left my hair straight.

The whole car ride to the funeral, was so silent, that you could hear a piece of grass drop.

I sat as everybody gave their speeches about Emily. Some made speeches saying they loved Emily and such, even though they haven't talked to her in years.

I was then called up for my speech.

I cleared my throat "Emily Peters was not only my sister, but my best friend, too. She would always look out for me, and take care of me. It's like we swapped places; I was the 6 year old and she was the big sister taking care of me. I would come home from a bad day at school, and she'd run to me, giving me the biggest hug, and telling me all about her day. I remember when she first came into my life. I was so worried because I knew I wouldn't be the little one anymore. But, now I realize I was so lucky to have her in my life. I don't know how this world is going to continue without her. The sad thing is, I didn't even get to say goodbye to her," the last sentence had me bursting into tears.

My mom came to me, squeezing me in a hug, and leading me back to my seat.

We went home when everything was over. I decided to go into Emily's room.

I laid in her small bed, and stared at the ceiling.

I was so caught up in my business with Luke, and everything, that I couldn't even say goodbye.

I'm such a horrible person.

When I was leaving for the tour, all I did was give her a quick hug, thinking I would see her again.

But here I am.

My world is empty without her.

I hate my world without her.

Why didn't I go instead?

She's just a child. She had her whole life ahead of her.

She barely got to see the world. It's so unfair. She even planned out her whole life. She said she wanted to got to princess school, and become a princess. But, she doesn't get to become anything, but a dead soul.

Oh how I miss her already.

"Hey," Amanda came up to me.

"Hi," I said

She started to cry "Losing Emily is so hard. Please don't leave me, too."

Her crying was contagious, "I'll try. But same goes to you. You're not allowed to leave me just yet," I hugged her.

I scooted over for Amanda to lie down next to me.

"It's so weird not hearing Emily giving us sass, and asking us 'why are you in my bed, without asking me?' " Amanda smiled.

I laughed "I know. It's also weird not hearing her little giggles that echoed around the house."

She smiled. "So how was the tour?"

"The tour that I don't get to finish? it was ok," I shrugged.

She looked at her phone, "ugh. I have to get to work."

"I love you," she hugged me.

"What a day," I sighed, when she left.

I thought my life couldn't get worse, but little did I know, there was going to be so much more stuff coming for me.

Sorry if this was short and boring. Also, somebody asked me who was Emily so here's a little refresher, in case you forgot everything from the first chapter:

Emily- Angelica's younger (now dead) sister

Amanda- Angelica's older sister

Elijah- Angelica's older brother.
