I opened my eyes slightly to find myself in an ambulance, I looked at my right to find Claire sitting, she smiled as she saw me.

"Jane?" She called,

I wanted to speak but I felt myself black out again.

I woke up again not knowing what time it is, I saw myself in a white room with things, and I was laying in a bed, I felt the blanket tucked in me, I then heard the door opening, I saw Claire and Steve laughing, and they became shocked as they see me, I smiled and waved at them hello, they came running to me, Claire hugged me tight that it was difficult to breath, Steve smiled at me.

"So, what were you laughing about earlier?" I asked,

"Come on, don't worry about that." Claire responded,

"Jane, Claire's parents came home early just for you and Claire." Steve said,

"And, my parents finally decided about it." Claire said,

"Decided about what?" I asked,

"Jane, we're sisters now."

"Really?"

"But here's your name. Jane L. Higgins."

"Just added a Higgins."

Claire nodded, then she looked at the floor.

"What is it?" I asked,

"Jane, as the sister of Claire, can I ask you something?" Steve asked,

"You are now."

"Can I date your sister Claire?"

I first smiled and pretended to think about it, but actually I have the answer in my mind already.

"Yes."

Steve and Claire smiled, they both hugged, they could make a great couple, I looked at the door and asked.

"Where's Mark, Jake and Amelia?" I asked,

"They went somewhere first." Claire responded,

"Where?"

"In Jail, for Dave. Marco said that Dave went like crazy."

"What do you mean?"

"He kept saying that he was innocent and it was supposed to be night always."

"Well, okay, I just asked."

"Oh yeah, I delivered McDonald's, I'll get it."

"No, I'll get it for you, babe." Steve said,

Claire nodded sweetly, Steve went out the room, Claire looked at me and I vastly raised my eyebrows twice, she laughed and I started to go back to sleep.

September 01, 10:00AM

I got out of the Hospital already, Me and Claire sat in the couch quietly and confessed.

"Claire, it'll be better if we say everything that we hid from each other." I said,

Claire nodded, I asked her first.

"Claire, I wanna ask why you killed those three people?" I asked,

"Those three people were actually my friends. I didn't want to but I had to, if I didn't they would harm my parents, our parents, this guy that I liked first, he tried raping me, but I still got away, he had a gun in his pocket and pointed it at my parents he told me that he will pull the trigger if I try to get away, I stole the gun away from him and pulled the trigger." Claire responded,

"The second one."

"The second one was his girlfriend, she has this big brother of hers, so she said to try to kidnap me and torture me, I kept the gun that night that I was kidnapped, her brother tried taking me and I shot him, I saw her in the car, I was just so angry at her that I shot her too, she was the third one."

"I'm sorry, that must be why you're really afraid to be kidnapped again."

"What about you? You still feel guilty about Amelia?"

"Yeah, I still regret trying to steal the knife away from her, I guess she just wanted to help the police, but instead I tried to steal the knife away from her and stabbed her accidentally, I guess Dave just wanted justice, I would do that also if one of the people in my life got murdered."

"Yeah, We would do that."

We both laughed and hugged. Later, Claire suggested on doing our nails, I chose the black nail polish since black is my favorite color, Claire chose red. Later, the nail polish dried already, I even took a picture of it. Me, Jake, Claire and Steve planned for Mark and Amelia, they both looked sweet and they were the same age, we planned on making them meet at Burgos Town Park, we hid behind the trees in the Park, we saw Mark came in along with Amelia, they smile as always, I then started to fly the paper plane, it landed on them, Mark took it and read it, he smiled and showed it to Amelia, they both walked around the park.

Later, we finally showed ourselves, Mark and Amelia confessed to us.

"We're together already."

"What?!" We all asked together,

"Yeah, since yesterday."

"Why didn't you told us earlier? We never should've set you up here, do you know how hard it was?" We all said together,

"Yeah, we know, sorry, but now, let's bond here, in this Park."

We did, we all did crazy stuff, we even tried rolling at the grass, when I was about to roll again, Jake grabbed my hand and he took us behind a tree, I was about to ask him why he took me here but he kissed me, we kept kissing until Claire came to us.

"Oh, sorry to interrupt." Claire said,

She went to the others again and played, Me and Jake held hands and walked to the others.
