Where were you!?

Chapter 1

Sitting in class, waiting for summer to begin. Although, I really want to stay at school. I hate staying home for 3 months. All my family members died. I'm stuck with my mom's ex-husband. My mom was divorced twice. I felt bad for her because she couldn't keep a man. Anyway, his name is Bryan. He is kind of a jackass. He drinks and smokes. He drinks at least twice a week, and smoke a pack of cigarette a month. I always wonder why he does that. Is it because of me, or because of losing my mom? During my mom's funeral, he wouldn't stop crying. He is also kind of boring. He thinks reading is fun. I just got back from school and he was just sitting there. I'm all like, can't you see me here? He was just sitting there looking at some paper. I walked up to him and ask what's wrong, and he said nothing. I know when he's lying when he starts shaking and tries to change the subject. I asked him again and then he got up and walked away. He balled up the the paper and took the garbage out.*What was that all about?*

Dinner was quiet and awkward. The only noise we heard was nature. After dinner, it was my turn to wash the dishes. Bryan went upstairs to sleep. After he left, I went outside and dig though the garbage. I know that is stupid, but it's the only idea I got left. I went through the garbage looking for the letter, then I heard someone open their door. At first, I thought it was Bryan because he is a light sleeper and I was pretty loud. Instead, it was our neighbor's garage door. Anyway, I kept digging for the the paper and BAM! I found it. Then I packed the garbage back into the can, and ran inside before Bryan sees me. I went to my room and un-balled the paper. It turns out it was a letter from my mom.

"Dear Bryan,

I need your help. As you know, I'm going to be dead soon. I need you to help me find Abby dad.

I know your going to die soon by the way you drink, so I need you to find her dad before it's too late. His name is Peter Jackson. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland. He's six foot tall and middle aged. He also has ocean blue eyes. It would be a blessing if you find him. Abby will be thankful for this.

Love, Christine "
