Wow this is weird. The cool gray color that Natalie and I had painted the room looked dark and deathly. There was a fog about the room since it hadn't been operational in almost 6 months. The book Diamond said nudging me. Oh yeah I went to our closet to where she said it was at and grabbed it off the shelf. That's when I spotted DJ's lunchbox. Her favorite lunchbox the one she went back to get the day we left our home in Bakersfield. I grabbed it and the sketchbook before making my way back into the living area with Em and Diamond. I got it we can go now.
Whose journal is this Em said holding DJ's journal. Diana's! Oh she said about to sit back down. No bring it there are letters in there I think the two of you should read. Us! Yeah you two. Something caught Diamond's eye out the window. She moved the blinds a little bit to see what it was. Yo it's time for us to go she said motioning for us to go back out the room. Some one here or something? We just need to leave now she said pushing us out the room. Wait! Zora we don't have time. No just give me a minute I said going towards Sapphires room.
I took a deep breath before carefully moving the tape and going into her room. The last time I was in this room was the night I found my baby sister holding her dead body. The crisp white walls looked dingy and the blue held the feeling death. I went over to her night stand and grabbed the picture of her and Natalie. I noticed it the last time that I had been in her room. I shook my head before exiting the room and putting the tape over the door and meeting Em and Diamond back in the hall way. Shh she said as we tip toed back towards the private garage. Is someone here I whispered to them? I don't know but I saw a light from y'alls window something creepy is going on she said as we went out the door and ran to her car. As soon as we were on the main road back to town we all let out a sigh of relief. Man that was some creepy ass shit Em said looking at Diamond. You telling me I've never felt so many funny spirits in my life. Yall is the ranch haunted or something? Zora haunted really! I don't know yall the one talking like it was weird super natural shit going on. It's not haunted its just weird it being all dark and life there.
I traced over the outside of Natalie sketch book until We got back to the hotel 15 minutes later. You want us to come with you Diamond said in the elevator. Yeah yall can come in. They followed me into the room and we sat on the couch. I opened the sketchbook and the first face I saw was my mom's. Who is that? My mother. She's beautiful. Yeah she's something I said continuing to the flip through the pages. Of sketches before stopping at this one sketch. Is that us Em said as we looked the sketch? Natalie had sketched all of in a collage Diamond in the middle with Me, Diana, Sapphire, Babydoll, Amythest, Emerald, Ruby, Mystic, Phoenix, and herself around her. In the middle she sketched out the words "Diamonds Angels". Diamonds Angels huh Diamond said. Kind of a contradiction for the place we live in. You know not all angels in heaven were pure and heavenly. This girl is so damn talented. Yeah I hope she doesn't lose the chance to actually go to school for it. And why she lose it? Colleges don't typically let you in if you have a felony on you record. She won't because she's getting off. She didn't murder Sapphire, Rocci, Onyx, and she damn sure didn't murder Nicoli. Her hands are clean. How can you be so sure of that? I just know she said with certainty in her voice.
