I saw only a tall shadow of a man. after then, I felt a piece of clothing pressed onto my mouth and nose.

what was happening?

I was breathing normally, but my eyes became heavy. I held Caroline tight in my arms, and all went black.

I heard screams. it was a voice of a girl. She was struggling, but I don't know why. I opened my eyes and blinked continuously to regain my focus.

It was Nicole. She was held by two men by her arms.

 "Nicole! What's happening?" I asked.

I seriously didn't know.

I started to panic, I couldn't move.

What are they doing to her? Will they hurt her?

"Nicole...I'm scared."

"It's okay. Don't be. Ugh!" She blurted out as she was punched in the stomach by the man beside the two, who were holding her.

"Nicole!"

"Aw. How touching." The man infront of my sister, commented.

He continued releasing punches to my sister.

Tears swelled up in my eyes. That was when the man pulled out a shiny, red pocket knife. 

I remember him wearing a casual checkered shirt. And worn out blue-tinted jeans.

"Nicole..."

"Just stare at Caroline!" She demanded.

I did as she said. I focused only on Caroline's face.

Crying as i stared at the big black eyes of the pink bear.

"She loves you, as i love you. Aubrey, Caroline is just like Nicole. I love y--"

Nicole. The only sister i had. Why did she stop so suddenly?

Where are my parents?

"Hide these bodies." A voice said.

"What are we going to do with her?" Replied another voice.

"Let her be. Don't hurt that kid. She was the one who waved at me." He informed.

I-It was the man earlier. Was it my fault for saying bye-bye to a stranger?

Is it because of me, they died? 

I conttinued staring at Caroline as the men walked out the door.

"Bye-bye" The man said.

Afterwards, i heard sirens.

But.. I kept staring at Caroline, like i was told to.

"I heard screams!" A voice panickly informed.

"Okay, ma'am. Calm down. We will take care of the rest." A husky voice replied.

I heard the front door open. I was still facing Caroline. I never blinked nor moved an inch.

I was in shock.

"What happened?" Someone asked as he crouched infront of me.

It's not that i didn't want to answer. But, i couldn't speak.

I only thought of my family.

Will i ever see them again?

This made me cry even harder.

"Poor Child." Another person walked towards us. This time it was a woman.

"She wouldn't talk." The man informed.

"She's in shock. Come, Honey. Let's talk." She offered a hand.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me up. She kept hold of my hand as we entered her car and drove to the police station. She made me sit on an ordinary stackable chair.

"Look at me." She demanded.

"I c-can't. I must look only at Caroline." I refused.

"What is your name, darling?" She asked sweetly.

"Aubrey. And this is Caroline." I replied. 

"Well. Can i talk to her?" She asked pointing at the bear i was holding.

"If it's a bit." I handed her the bear as i kept staring at it.

"Caroline. Would you and Aubrey, like to live with me?" She asked the bear.

"Why? We have a house" I looked at her.

 "Finally, you're looking at me. We were informed that your family is one of the richest, in our country. There was a man that knew your father. Unfortunately, he was broke. It was because your dad fired him. Your dad had reasonable explanation, but the man held a grudge. He and his brothers are now in jail, the man who asked you earlier kept track of his car." She explained.

"They're gone." I admitted as i cried.

"I'll take care of you, now. So, don't worry. It was never your fault." She hugged me gently.

"But my famil--" She put Caroline in front of me.

"They will continue with you, as Caroline." She replied.

"Ah. So that's what my sister meant." I realised as i hugged her back.

Until now, i lived with the same woman. Her name was Whitney Miles. The woman who made me accept the truth and cared for me since that day.

"Evans? You are Aubrey Evans, right?" A voice intruded.

I wiped my tears as he walked towards me.

"Yeah, why?" I replied bitterly.

"Is this yours? I think you left this, earlier. A blonde guy told me to hand it over to you." He smiled as he revealed a pink bear stuffed toy.

I grabbed it without hesitation.

"Thank you---?" I smiled as i asked his name.

"It's Chris. Chris Wayne." He replied.

"Thank you, Chris." I hugged Caroline.

He gestured a welcome. As he walked out of the room. I was so happy. 

But it seems like i may have forgotten something.

Something important..
