"I'm done with you!", Aunt Kimberly shouted as she slammed the door in my face.
I rolled my suitcase down the sidewalk as I slung my duffle bag over my shoulder. I threw my stuff in the trunk and got into the front seat of my car. I could see Matt, my cousin, trying to peek through the windows, but miserably failing since he was only five.
Guess Aunt Kim was tired of me. Ever since my family died, I had been obsessed. Most people in my town thought I was insane, I would think I was too, but they didn't see what I saw. The cops say it was an animal attack, but I know that the type of animals that live here in Georgia couldn't be so brutal, nor could they leave the footprint.
So here I am, trying to find who murdered my family, while also bring to convince folks that it was a murder. All my time now is spent doing research, learning, investigating, anything that could be of use.
I know my aunt loved my mom, and I think she would rather believe that a wolf killed her than one of her beloved neighbors. Aunt Kim is embarrassed by me, her country club friends don't have crazy nieces who have PTSD and go to therapists. At first, Aunt Kimberly was sympathetic, but after about six months, she thought I should be over my "hallucinating stage". Now that its been a year, and I just graduated highschool, she expected me to be normal.
It took my aunt over the edge once I convinced Matt it was a murder. She didn't want me "poisoning her son with my lies and attention-getting routine".
Now I'm going to live with my grandma. I love her, she's the best. She believes the coroners report, but she believes that everyone has their own way of arriving and this is just mine . The only problem is she lives two hours away, two hours away from the best piece of evidence I've got. The crime scene.
As I drive out of the town my life began and ended in, what I didn't realize was, there is a lot more to come. Maybe I'm not the only crazy one.
