The cold morning air was instantly replaced by a warm feeling the afternoon gave.


"Hey Mones. You know what day it is right?", Nick piped up from the living room couch while I was in the kitchen cooking our lunch. Yes, Nick loves to hang out at my home.


"What? Tuesday?", I asked.


"Mones today is the anniversary of your parents'..you know.", he almost whispered as he said it.


" Oh that.", I bowed my head and tears started to form at my eyes. I can't believe it's been a year.


I can still remember what happened that day before they just...disappeared.

"Hey princess what do you wanna do today?", my mom asked while making us breakfast.


"I really don't wanna go out today Mom. I just want to hang out with you guys today", I smiled at my beautiful mother.


"Wow that's cheesy of you", my father joked while he messed my hair. I laughed and stuck my tongue out at my dad. He just chuckled.


"Uhh Mom, I'll just go to the bathroom", I told mom who's making pancakes and bacon.


"Sure sweetie. But hurry up or your father will eat all of this.", she laughingly said.


I just chuckled at my mom's words. I looked at them both and smiled, then went to the bathroom. I really have great parents.


I was just checking my reflection on the mirror when I saw a blur of white and blue on the reflection of the door. I quickly turned around but there was nothing. A few thundering heartbeats later, I heard a blood curdling scream that I'm sure came from the kitchen.


I dashed to the kitchen to find nothing but plates scattered and the pancakes close to burning. I turned off the stove then started looking for my parents.


"Mom?! Dad?!", I called out but only silence answered me. This is getting seriously scary since my parents are not the type of people to just go without telling anyone especially me and I swear the scream I heard was my mom's. 


I looked for any sign of them but nothing. I went to their room then mine. That's when I saw my mom's left slipper next to my bed.


"MOOOM!!! DAAAD!!!", I started to break down and cry. I don't know what to do.

"Mona! Mona!", Nick snapped me out of my memories.


"Oh sorry Nick. What is it?", I asked while quickly wiping my tears.


"You burned our lunch.", he said while stiffling a laugh.


"Oh shit!", I cursed and quickly turned off the stove. I put the smoldering pieces of meat in the trash that now looks like heaps of charcoal. "I'm sorry Nick.", I apologized.


" It's okay. We can still order pizza.", Nick smiled.


" That's fine with me.", I beamed at him.
