The Case of the Missing Little Sister

Chapter One

I knock on my aunt's door.

She opens it and smiles. "Welcome, Emily!"

"Hello, Aunt Hazel." she smiles. "You're here for your gift right?"  I nod and laugh.

She points towards the garage. I quickly run towards it and open the garage.

"Wow..." my voice trails off, as I stare at a magnificent sight. A white convertible. "Isn't it beautiful?" I hear my aunt ask and I nod. "Can I take it for a ride?" I ask. "Of course, it's yours. But wait, you have a driving license right?" She asks. "Yup." "Great."

"Hmm..." I crack an eye open and drag my hand along to slam my phone.

I get up lazily. I look at my new room. Yesterday, I finished decorating my room. And today was the dreadful day when school begins.

I took a quick shower and dressed in faded shorts and a white tee saying 'BOSS'. I smiled at myself. I put strawberry lipstick. I grabbed some yogurt from the mini-refrigerator and ate that up.

My first class was Biology.

"Welcome class. I'm Ms. Georgia Matthew, and let's begin." Our teacher began and I lean back.

I wonder what'll happening if I had taken Literature. I would be writing long stories and I would be graded on that. I should have taken that. The classes would be much simpler and easy. But, hey! Don't get me wrong, I want to be a diagnostic or what you call a 'doctor'

"Hello? Emily?" Someone calls out. A boy calls out who is pulls up a chair next to my desk and sits down, I look at the ocean blue eyes staring at me questionably. "Sorry I zoned out." I say. "What's going on?"

"Well, we have a project together. We'll make a presentation on the blood circulation thingy?" I nod.

"I'm Emily, and you?" he smiles and replies, "Dude, I know your name. I'm Ethan."

"When do we begin?" I ask.

"Uh... We decide who's going to get what, and we'll make the script together in the library at 7?" he asks.

"I don't mind it."

"That wasn't even a question." He says rudely.

"You're rude." I state simply and he grins. "You haven't seen the last of me."

"Well, I hope not to" He starts to get on my nerves, "show you my side." I say.

The bell saves me. "So you're challenging me? On seeing on who's more annoying."

"No." I simply get up and gather my books.

"Nice meeting you Ethan." I walk off for my next class.

It's seven and I'm sitting here alone.

"Hey! Miss. Annoying!"

I hear Ethan call out. I turn around with a frown. "Come along!" he screams.

'This is a library!' I mouth and follow him with my notebook.

We walk down the small passage towards the dorms.

"Where do you want to make the script?" I ask.

"In your dorm?" he says.

"'Kay," I reply. I am nervous, but I try not to look so.

I feel something hit my leg and before I know it, my face is slammed against the floor. I tripped.

I hear Ethan chuckle and then stop, "What's wrong with you?" he says and his hand grips my arm and he pulls me up. I get on my feet and clutch my nose. It's bleeding.
