     "Mom?" I say barley over a whisper.
     "Hi sweetie," she says smiling.
     I run up to her and give her a hug. It feels like it's been forever since the last time I've seen her. I pull away from her.
     "I heard about what happened," she says sadness filled in her eyes. "Were going to find her. Alive."
     "Thanks mom," I say.
     "So why don't you tell me about your first day of school," She says and sits down on the couch.
     "Well, I got to see Emma and Jonah," I say "and then Ellie was in my class, I had to go to the office-"
     "What do you mean you had to go to the office?" My mom asks giving me a serious look and everyone else gathers around to hear.
     "Well, Ellie called me fish girl so I called her fish face," I say and my mom shakes her head.
     "At least you didn't get suspended or detention."
     "The principal said I next time I would," I answer.
     I grab my backpack from the floor and go up to my room. I open the door to the closet. The first thing I do is scream. Everyone runs up stairs and sees me on my bed.
     "What happened?" V asks and I point into the closet.
     Everyone looks at me confused.
     "Spider!" I shout "There's a spider!"
     My mom takes a tissue and grabs the spider squishing it. She throws it in the tiny trashcan next to my nightstand. She takes my back back and hangs it on the doorknob.
     "There," she says as I slowly slip off the bed, "are you happy?"
     I nod. We head down stairs and sit in the living room.
     "Wait..." I say "now that your back, does that mean we have to go back to the house?"
     "No," my mom responds "we can't anyways, not yet."
     "Good," I sigh. I want to leave by the time we find Sara and these guys have to go back to South Korea.
                              ***
     The next day I stay home. I don't feel good, especially after I went to the office yesterday. I lay in bed listening to the world outside. Birds, cars, sirens, etc. I feel my forehead to see if I'm getting sick, thankfully not. There's a knock at my door.
     "Come in!" I say and the door opens. My mom comes in.
     "How are you feeling?" She asks sitting down on my bed.
     "Good," I respond.
     "You feel like going to school?" She asks
     "No," I respond "not today."
     "Ok," she says giving me a slight smile, "you know where to find me."
     She gets up and leaves the room closing the door behind her. I push the cover off me and swing my legs over the bed. I walk over to my backpack, which small and black.
