Secret of the purple diamonds

Chapter 18: Our Parents

When we had arrived to my house, I noticed my mom wasn't there.

"Mom!"

"Where could she have gone?" Keon asked.

"I have no clue. I'll try her cell"

I grabbed the house phone and called her...but she didn't answer.

"She didn't answer. Why don't one of y'all call your parents"

I gave the phone to Keon and he called his mom.

"...She didn't answer either"

Elijah and Allison called there parents and they didn't answer either.

"Something isn't right"

"You can say that again" Elijah said.

I stood there thinking of a possible explanation.

"You don't think when you made the wish you said something wrong do you" he said.

"No I didn't. all I wished was for everything to be back to normal...unless"

"Unless what?" Allison asked.

"Unless they didn't forget"

"What are you talking about?" Elijah asked.

"I wished that everything was back to normal...we didn't forget everything we went through. So what what if are parents remember that we were gone, where do you think they would be right now"

"The Police station" they said.

"Exactly. they might be there right now"

"But wait, if they are there, why didn't they pick up the phone when we called them?" Keon asked.

"I don't know. But lets go tot he station. I should have money left in my room to take the bus"

I ran in my room and grabbed the money I had left and we caught a bus.

Sitting on the bus, I noticed that the driver kept staring at us.

I leaned in towards Keon and whispered "Why does he keep staring at us"

"I don't know, but I noticed it too" he said.

We both looked at Allison and Elijah.

We could tell they noticed it too.

Keon then got up and said to the driver "Hey! Why do you keep staring at us"

When the bus came to a stop, the driver glared at us and said "Im sorry, Its just you look like the kids on that flyer" he pointed at a flyer on his seat.

"Thats us" Elijah said.

"I figured it was you guys" he said, then he continued to drive.

"I wonder how long we've been gone"

A couple of minutes later, we arrived at the station.

When we walked in, I looked around looking for one of our parents.

"I don't see them at all"

"Me neither" Allison said.

We had turned around about to leave until....

"Arianna..." I heard.

When I turned around my mom and the other parents were standing behind us.

"Mom"

Before I knew it all of us had ran towards are parents.

I was relieved.

"How long have we've been gone?"

"About a month" she said.

We were shocked. We didn't know we were gone that long.

Then the police had walked towards us.

"Okay, guys the police and even us would like to know...where were you all this time?" Allison's mom asked.

We looked at them, I mean what could we have said.

Even if we told the truth, they wouldn't believe us.

"...we can't tell you" Elijah said.

Allison's dad looked at him then at me.

"It's your fault!" His tone was harsh.

"I agree. I knew you were trouble, you drove them to do this" Keon's mom said.

"Mom it wasn't her fault. We chose to go with her" Keon said.

"Keon hush, I know what I'm talking about" she said.

Then all the parents started joining in on how it's my fault...and for some awkward reason, my mom did nothing.
