Marian, don't leave! Please, you can be my queen!
I have a life in Dixon. I have family and friends.
No...
I'm sorry.
NO!
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
I bolted up in bed. That same dream... again.
I look at the time. 7 am. Time for school.
I shower and pull on my jeans and a sweatshirt. I grab my cross-body bag and run downstairs.
My mom is flipping pancakes. "Hey Mom," I say kissing her on the cheek.
"Morning Hon'" she says as she finishes the last pancake and sets the plate in front of me.
I and my mom look nothing alike. She has dark brown hair and is shorter than me. She has pretty blue eyes. Me I have dirty blonde hair and jade green eyes.
"Cass last night, I got a call"
"Mhmm"
"from a potential buyer"
"Yep"
"and they want to see my work!" she finishes happily
"So when is he coming?"
" There's a catch... I have to go to them and there this artist convention..."
"so?"
"and I don't want to leave you for 3 weeks-"
I look up at my mom funnily. "Mom you've left me alone many times before"
"I know but its that time of the year
I roll my eyes every 10-20 years or so around March or may a series of events happen in the same order every time.
1. some hot, mysterious new kid shows up.
2. A student mostly a girl disappears for a few weeks with the new kid.
3. the girl comes back different, sometimes pregnant and crazy.
Then everything goes back to normal and the new guy never comes back.
There are so many theories, the police haven't even found any leads since the first one and you know how I know this... My mom.
My Mom was one of the girls who went missing. She refuses to tell me anything about her experience, all shell say is that it was one of the best times of her life and she wouldn't change anything, including me.
Yes I was the result of my mother's kidnapping, the unwanted outcast child
"Bye Cass," my mom says as I finish my pancakes and walk out of the house to school.
"Bye!"
