Do they REALLY care?

I woke up and sat up. I had fallen asleep. I took out my phone. 6:27 a.m.. I had so many text messages and missed phone calls. All from Mommy, Daddy, Sabrina, Faria, and my older sister Kyran.

It hurt to see that, but I did something I had to... I had only been missing for about 15 1/2 hours, so I have awhile before they start a big search.

I don't know what I was supposed to do, since it was a risk going out into the public. But I would have to do it today if I had any chances, because in 8 1/2 hours they would widen the search.

I put on my black sweater and my hood on. I brought $35.00 with me. I had to be wise on what I bought, because this food was going to last awhile. Which meant I had to cut back how much I ate too.

I snuck out of my hiding place. I walked all the way to target, and entered the store.

I kept my head down, and made my was to the caned food section. I grabbed 3 cans of tuna and beans. I went to the boxed section, and grabbed cheese-itz, gramcrackers, peanut butter crackers, and granola bars. Lastly, I got a case of water, with 20 water bottles in it. I went to the self checkout area because I had less than 15 items.

I went and bought all of my stuff. Thanks to all of the times I went with Kyran to the store, I knew how to use the self checkout like a beast!

I had $1.13 left. I have also gotten better at estimating my cost. I was making my way back very easily, until...

"Do you need some help with that?" I heard such a familiar voice. Oh no... It was Christopher! I forgot it was the weekend...

I cleared my throat, to make my voice sound different. "Oh, no thanks, I got it." I said getting nervous.

"You sure?"

"Yep."

"Ok, if you say so."

"Oh, would you look at the time? I have to go! See ya!" I said waddling as fast as I could. Gosh dang it, that is something I would say! I need to change. And I need to change fast...

5 minutes later...

I made it back uncaught, but that was close with Chris...

I looked at my phone. 58 missed calls and 35 messages. I might as well give them a sign that I'm ok. But here's the question...

Should I call or text it?

A.N.: Surprise! You get to see from the one and only... Sabrina Raclair's POV!

Sabrina's POV

"We'll find her Sabrina, it's Ok." Faria said, trying to comfort me, even though it wasn't Ok.

"No Faria! It's not Ok! It's my fault! If I never told her to tell the story, she wouldn't have felt bad and stormed off! Who knows where she could be or what is happening to her!" I said crying harder.

"Sabrina! Faria! She's Ok!" Maliyah's Older Sister, Kyran, says as she says and shows us her phone. It shows a message from Maliyah!

"Oh my god! What does it say!?" Faria says.

"It's says 'I am Ok Kyran. Tell everyone else. I was not kidnapped or anything, I just ran away. I will not reveal unless you find me. But tell Faria and Sabrina this: This is a hint, that involves 4. Look back in 2016-2017, and you shall find more. Just put you minds to it, and you shall find, the place that I have hidden in, you'll just have to rewind.'"
