The lost child

Chapter 3

Ok guys I'm really sorry buy I mixed the chapters up by accident!! This chapter is before the party so plz try not to get too confused!! Sorry <3

Yana's POV

I can see her now. In my mind. I can see her smiling widely at me. As i sit here in my own home kept prisioner in the cellar I cry for her.

"Ohh Anna, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I should have believed you and ran for help. I'm so stupid. Please forgive me," I pray outloud so everyone can hear my sorrow.

I hear no reply. It's all because of me. My childhood friend now turns into my childhood nightmare. The feilds used to be full with crops and animals but now are empty and dead. The forest is darker and dead of any life.

I ran my finger over the dirty window sill picking up dust. Prisoner of my own sorrow.

I began to cry louder making my parents yell at me from the door.

"You disgrace! You're a failure to our family! You're a murderer of your own friend!" Mother screaches. Every word hits me I'm the heart. They used to love me, laugh and brush my hair. They did once apon a time used to care...

Xav's POV

Annabelle had been acting strange in the car home. She's got everything anyone would want but here she is gloomy and tired.

I'm not mad that she fell asleep but just disappointed.

She's starring out the window like she's in deep thought. Maybe she's thinking about Amelia... it's all probably flooding back to her.

It can't be though... it's been years since her death. She was a kind hearted girl. I felt like I had a younger sister to care for who is really younger.

Annabelle has a confused look now. Should I disturb her thoughts?

"Are you ok?" I blurted. I was meant to think things out first like what was I going to say. She turned to look at me and put on a fake smile. She couldn't fall me.

"Im fine." She said. Lies. I couldn't tell her that she was lying to me. I'll let her enjoy her birthday and when she's ready she'll tell me. She always does.

It takes time but it's always something for me to know and worry about.

Annabelles POV

The car wasn't as relaxing as I hoped to clear my head from the noisy crowd we'd just been in. It was akward and things are never akward when I'm with Xav.

I want to just close my eyes and fall asleep, but I'll be in that house again... that girl...

Xav disburbs my thoughts but I can't really blame him. Friends are meant to care and he's just doing his part.

"Are you ok?" He seems to blurt out and from his expression as I stare at him he regrets speaking. I put on a fake smile to show him I'm happy.

"Im fine." I lie. I hate lying to people, deep inside it feels like I've made a huge mistake and I feel as if i need to tell the truth.

Maybe in a few days I'll tell him. I can't ruin today thinking about her. And I can't not ever tell Xav, he can tell somethings up.

Better sit back and relax while I can and have a great party while it lasts and I'll be ready tomorrow.

I'm sure if it. Possitive. I have to tell him soon.

We entered his house and his parents were getting ready to leave.
