"Boring Monday" says Daisy as we eat lunch in our high school cafeteria " I agree , same old stuff " . The bell rings we sigh in unity " Thank god school is over for today " says Daisy , I couldn't agree more.
As we were walking down the road I see a small kitten injured in it's right leg so i quickly go and take her in my arms , patting her , looking at this poor thing which was hurt by some vehicle most probably , and looking into her eyes I couldn't deny her plea so I brought her home with me and spent 4 hours trying to make her a little house made out of cardboard boxes which I found outside my dorm . But the main question arises in my mind and we say in unity " what should we name her ?" I look at Daisy and Daisy looks at me and we burst into laughter . After thinking for a long period of time we come to a conclusion that we should name her Sora which means sky or high in japanese .
As I go to bed switching off my lights and saying good night to Daisy I start to dream of me in Oakdale going near the cold body of my murdered best friend 'Ellisa' blood flowing everywhere and as I look up i see a man ' the murderer of Ellisa ' saying to me "you're next " and he starts running behind me holding the murder weapon.
"Wake up" shouts Daisy as I come to my senses I feel my tears on my cheek and my breath heavy . " What happened? Are you okay ?" said Daisy , I nod taking little Sora into my arms and comforting myself , making sure that Daisy buys the act and goes back to sleep , after a while when Daisy is peacefully asleep I think about my dream , to be honest I would be more than happy to meet the murderer in real life and ask him that what did Ellisa or I ever did to him , for him to do such a task . The police were no help , they didn't find any clue more than the back of a man on the school CCTV camera which was of no use as technology that time was not as advanced as today . As I crawl back to my bed thinking about it , praying that my horrible dream never comes true . My phone chimes , I look up to see who just texted me and I received a message from Rebbeca an old friend from Oakdale Middle School as soon as I recognise her my jaw dropped, my eyes wide from terror and my world spinning as I open the text I see letters that go beyond my head , an invitation to the 2018-19 batch reunion .
Dear Staisy ,
Warm regards from Rebbeca , I invite you to our 2018-19 batch reunion ! Make sure to join us on this Saturday ( 4th September ) at 4:00 pm .
As I was in my favourite coffee shop trying to study but distracted from my work , thinking about the reunion and came to a conclusion of not going there . As my phone rings I see my mom calling I receive the call " Hello! Darling how are you ? Have you been eating well ? " I say yes in an almost happy voice for her not to notice my worry " Darling you see there was this Rebbeca girl " as I heard those words my world stopped and my fake happy voice disappears " Staisy darling I received this invitation of this reunion in our little Oakdale and I want you to go plus I have already made living arrangements and got train tickets for you" as I heard this I lost the words from my mouth " no mummy I don't want to go you see it's far and I have school an—-" interrupting me she says " Shut up ! I very well know that why you are not wanting to go but dear you cannot run from it forever you need to face it plus you see it is a weekend so you won't miss school and it is only 4-5 hours away . I sigh "okay" and I hung up .
( Next day : At the school )
As I was distracted all the time thinking about the reunion I got an incredible idea of acting sick to skip the day as I was smiling ears to ears I received a message , my happiness did not stayed long . The message was from an unknown number as I opened the text I saw bold letters that said :
Unknown:
I would love to see you at the reunion, hoping you would be there .
From the murderer of Ellisa !!
As I looked those I letters my world came crashing down no one can understand how much I hate it when I said I would be happy to meet the murderer of Ellisa . I couldn't take more and as I reached my dorm to Daisy I burst into tears blabbering all that I kept in my heart , my tears rolling from both terror and anger. " What happened to my little brave girl " said Daisy hugging me and ready to listen to me as I speak . She asked me " What happened?" and I burst into tears again as I stopped crying , I decided to tell her everything.
