Lost Treasure

acting on instinct

Emily's pov:

1 week later:

After my mom died shortly after she told me about my dad I was in hysterics. I had no where to stay my mom was the only family I knew and now she is dead so I'm staying at a friends because I decided that my dad didn't need me in his life I was a complete and utter failier so I know he wouldn't want me anyway so there was no point in even going and persuing anything. Anyway I'm staying at my friends katy's house we have been friends for as long as I can remember. She has been helping me through my mom's death and at the funeral she held me as I cried as they lowered my mom into the ground. I miss her so much but I know she wouldn't want me to put my life on hold just because she is dead so instead I'm going to carry on with life as if nothing had happened even though I know for a fact something had happened and it affected me tremendous.

"Emily,dinner" katy's mom amanda yelled up the stairs.

I went downstairs and ate my dinner then came back up stairs and got ready for bed as it was already 10 o'clock and I was tired.

After 10 minutes I fell into a dreamless sleep.

Next day

I woke up, showered, had breakfast and went out for a walk saying I wouldn't be back all day because I needed to get out and not cramped up In a bedroom all day moping so I went and met up with a few friends.

"Hey emily" my friend mike greeted me as I came up to him at the park.

"Hi" I replied back.

"Yo em" James my boyfriend shouted at me from the other end of the park, I just waved because I didn't want to shout across the park like him. I don't like drawing attention to myself.

"Hey emily how are you holding up?" Edward said as he arrived at the park also.

"Good thanks" I said back and for once I was telling the truth when someone asked me that.

After a while we went on the skate boars park because we got bored but then some jerks  from school arrived and came over to us.

"Oh look it's the girl who KILLED her pathetic mother" one of them said which immediately made me want to scream at him saying to never ever say anything like that about my mother but I just didn't have the courage. Instead I just walked away.

"I also heard she found out who her dad was but didn't want to know him so didn't tell him poor guy" another person said and at that I ran and just carried on and after 10 minutes I realized that it was pouring rain and that I was crying.

I looked to see if there was shelter anywhere until the rain stopped and saw that district 21 was across the street and I had no other choice but to go in because other wise I could of gotten seriously ill.

When I stepped inside I saw a desk and a woman who looked kinda scary was behind it and when she saw me walk in she looked even scarier, obviously she didn't want to deal with anything and I don't know what made me do it but I walked up to her.

" excuse me but does a Jay Halstead work here" I asked rather shyly.

"Yes but the team is out at the minute do you want to leave a message?" She asked without looking up.

"No is it ok if I wait it's really important?" I asked, and the funny thing was I don't know why because I had already made the decision that I was to much of a burden and he didn't need the stress I mean he didn't even know me but maybe that was the point maybe I wanted him to know me and vise versa.

"Sure take a seat over there" she said and pointed to some benches near the door.

After a while 7 people walked through the door chatting aimlessly.

"OI HALSTEAD" the woman behind the desk  shouted and all of them stopped to see why she shouted at him, I also learned that she was called platt from other police officers calling her that.

"Errrrmm yes" the person platt referee to as Halstead replied.

"You have a visitor" and as she said that I stood up and my dad jay Halstead turned to me and I also noticed that everyone was looking on to see what would happen next.

"Hi I don't know what I'm doing and I'm probably going to regret this later but..."

"Stop who are you?" My dad asked me and that was when I knew I couldn't hold it in any more and I just shout out.

" I'm your daugher" and that's when I realised I just acted on my instincts.
