Mad

Abigail's roses

"Open your mouth! Say AH!!"
Me and Aiden where in the cafeteria playing the old game of see-if-you-can-throw-food-in-someone-elses-mouth. So far I had gotten it in his mouth every single time, but him? No he was horrible.

I tossed a small cracker up in the air and he caught it.

Yet another perfect pass from yours truly.

"Here. Its my turn"

He reaches for the bag of crackers but I yank them away before he has a chance.

"No no no. You suck at this" I say as I smile at his puzzled face.

"What? I do not suck! You suck!" He said all defensive like.

I stood up and put the bag of crackers behind my back.

"Oh no! Where did they go?!"

He stood up as well and tried to reach around my back, but I was way faster than him.

"Oh no they have gone! Vanished from existence!"
He kept trying to reach around me to grab the bag.

He was struggling for awhile until he finally gave up.

"What?" I said teasing him
"Your done? Hmm who sucks now?"
He looked winded like he had been running a mile.

I form my hand into a fist and pretend to hold a microphone.

"So. Mr.Aiden how does it feel to be defeted by a girl?"

He slapps my hand softly in a playful manner and I begin to laugh.

"You are too much for me. And all this has made me have to pee" he said getting up once more and working his way down the hall.

"Make sure to work on that aim!"
He flips me off and I laugh again, but harder this time.

I sat down at the end of my laughter and waited for Aiden to get back.

I was alone.

Alone at the table.

Alone in the cafeteria.

Alone with my thoughts which is never good.

I wonder how Matty is doing, my little baby, without me. I bet he cried when I didn't show up the next day, or the next day or the next day.

But then again im pretty sure he didint cry. He probably didnt cry at all his small little brain has most likely forgotten about me by now. If I where to drop everything and leave right now, go home right now he would scream and yell at my unfamiliar face. No one at home has even tried to contact me, or visit me. They are all happy I'm gone.

Well jokes on them because I'm happier here.

The cafeteria doors opened and Louise came in looking for me.

God I spoke too soon.

"Scarlett? Scarlett!! There you are"

She rushes over to the table and slides the card over to me. I know exactly what it is.

I couldn't even touch it. Why has MAD waited this long?

"Scarlett... That's the first one in weeks" says Louise

The air was still and the atmosphere was terrifying.

"I know" I said back to her.

"Well? Open it"

I place my hand over the card and open it.

Your mother
Abigail is so beautiful.
Those red roses over her
"grave" are simply stunning.
But something
is a little...off.
Don't you agree?

-MAD

"Red roses?" I said trying to remember.
Louise takes the note out of my hand and reads it.
"What does she mean something is a little off?" Asked Louise.

I paused and suddenly felt extremely furious.

"This bitch tampered with my moms grave."
