     As I sat at the diner table waiting for Cierra, I saw a little girl slowly walking towards me. She had short brown hair which was knotted all over her head. Her eyes were dark I felt like I was getting trapped in her gaze.I snapped back to reality when my friend waved her hand in my face."Earth to Sara"she laughed.    

       "What took you so long to get here?" I asked.

        "I took the bus, my car broke down"she said agitated

          I was so busy talking to Cierra that when I looked for the little girl she was....gone.I felt chills wave over my entire body, how could she just.....disappear.
It took a second for me to realize that, that little girl looked familiar, I just couldn't put my finger on it.

" How have you been?" Cierra asked.

" I've been better." I sighed.

" I know things haven't been good lately." Cierra stated.

" Yeah, but let's not talk about that." I say trying to change the subject. "What's been up with you?"

"Cj and I have been having some trouble since Mary came back." She said trying to not look me in the eyes.

I know her and Mary's relationship haven't been the best since my sister died. Mary was the one watching my sister when she was killed. She left after it happened, but no one really knows the real reason why she decided to leave.

" She didn't that my sister was going to get killed." I tried to reassure her, "It's something we can't change." I tried to sound positive, but it was hard.

" She left after your sister died, aren't you upset that she was the one watching your sister when she died." she was getting aggravated, " Aren't at least a little mad"

" She didn't know my sister was going to die when she took her to the park that day" I was trying to stay calm as I spoke.

"Whatever" She said as she got up to leave.

I got up to stop her, but as she open the door I got a flash of the little girl again, but this time her hair wasn't knotted and her clothes weren't all dirty. The little girl had wavy brown hair and she had on a purple dress, but before I could really get a good look at her the little girl disappeared just as fast as she had showed up.

" Could today get anymore weirder" I mumbled to myself.

I ran out of the diner to try and catch up with Cierra, but just like the little girl, she was gone.
