That night Wednesday was at the desk in her room with her eyes (whose gaze was expressionless) set on the paper as she typed on her typewriter, the clinking sound flooded the room, on her shoulder was "Thing" her faithful relative and friend, despite being only one hand, at that moment there was a knock on the door, Wednesday stopped her writing, got up and went to the door, when she opened it in front of her was her brother Pugsley.

Wednesday : What is so important that you dare to disturb my writing time Pugsley?

Pugsley : I was coming in case you wanted to go dig some graves and try to revive the dead with Uncle Fester and me.

Wednesday : Pugsley always so inopportune, right now I have more important things to do than play your childish games, I must finish my novel if I want to be a successful writer in the future, so get out of my sight.

Wednesday said closing the door in front of her brother, she turned around and went back to her desk, she looked out the window and saw how a dark storm was raging outside, she made a small smile and sat down again at her desk, at the moment she was about to write a blinding light came out of the sky through the black clouds, Wednesday covered her face with her arm and suddenly when she pushed it away she saw herself lying on her bed, she did not remember how she got there ; She stayed a long time observing the room and saw that she was still in her room but it was dawn and the sun's rays were coming through the window glass, she got up and went down to the living room, she found it strange that none of her family was having breakfast, she looked all over the Addams mansion but there was no trace of her family.

Wednesday : umm how strange, they have gone and without leaving any note or warning me, not to say that last night I was sitting at the desk and after that light blinded me I woke up in my bed, maybe it was a dream or maybe not, whatever it is I will have to investigate it, maybe something happened.

At that moment a small knocking sounded running into the living room from the kitchen, it was "Thing", apparently he was the only one in the room. It was "Thing", apparently he was the only one who was there besides Wednesday.

Thing" began to make gestures asking Wednesday where the others are.

Wednesday : I don't know, and that makes me sick inside, it's strange, we are the only ones in the mansion and they haven't taken us with them, but I haven't heard the car, nor have I seen any trace of Lurch, nor the others, I'll go and see what's going on.

Wednesday got his backpack ready, he gestured to "Thing" to get inside the backpack, once he had everything and "Thing" was inside the backpack, he closed it and went outside to investigate the backpack, he was looking for traces of them for several kilometers since his mansion was on the outskirts, When he arrived in town he noticed something different but he didn't give it the slightest importance, he stopped in front of a coffee shop, he observed it for a few seconds seeing that the name of the coffee shop said "Lidya's Coffee & Bookstore", he decided to enter, he approached the bar and ordered a quadruple espresso on the rocks, He was told to sit down, that they would bring it right away to the table and that if he wanted he could take a book from any of the shelves, he approached one of them and looked at the title of the books touching them one by one, then he saw Frankestain by Mary Shelly, one of his favorite books, he grabbed it and turned to go to the table when when he turned he bumped into a girl, and the books fell to the floor, wednesday is not normally to help others but he didn't know why but he decided to help her to pick up the books, there was a lot of romantic poetry, books about apostrophes and conjunctions, among others of romantic horror.
