I woke up before my alarm clock. I had school today, and I was ticked. I grabbed my camera and decided to take some photos. I digged through my drawer and found some leaves and stuff and set it up and took pictures. I definitely wanted to be a photographer when I grow up. a few minutes later my alarm clock went off, I turned it off and started getting ready for school.

as soon as it started getting dark I raced out to the grey house. I ran inside and Tommy was sitting in the living room this time, "hello Tommy" I said. "hi Mandy" he said back. "where do you go all day?" he asked. "school." I said. "what's school?" Tommy asked. "it's a place where you learn new things" I said. Tommy nodded, "they want to meet you" Tommy said with a small grin on his face. I decided to go along with it. "they do?" I said in a surprised tone. "yes, but you need to promise not to tell anyone okay?" Tommy said. "I promise!" I said. I played hide and seek and tag with Tommy trying to get my mind off of things, Tommy seemed like a normal kid, only, he wasn't. besides the fact that he was well, grey. Tommy was different, he seemed more mature than your average 6 year old. I've never seen Tommy smile, he always seems sad. I guess he just misses his sister.

it felt like hours later when I heard a car drive up the driveway. I gulped, I wanted to know who they were. Tommy smiled and hopped off the couch.

"they're here"
