The bus ride home was noisy. Kids were screaming, the bus driver yelling for quiet. I just quietly wrote in my notebook keeping a close eye on my little sister Bella. Then we pull into a narrow alleyway. The bus driver stomps to the back of the bus and yells at the kids in the back for throwing stuff and climbing over the seats. (Time skip to home) Mom is gone again. Bella and I are home alone again. I wonder how long mom would be gone. The last time she disappeared she was gone for a month. I walk over to the freezer. I see a human freaking hand. I stumbled back a bit but regain my balance. There a sticky note that says "DADS DO NOT TOUCH"  I think of the many times Bella and I have found hands or feet of humans in our freezer. That's normal, right? Our parents are assassins. Then I suddenly remember. Bella has gymnastics practice in thirty minutes!!!!! I raced upstairs to find Bella sitting behind the translucent lavender curtain. She's eating a pack of Haribo™ that our carpool person gave her. She's already in her leotard. "Let's go!" I shriek. She jumps up, abandoning her gummies. We scramble into the taxi that I waved down. (Time skip after gymnastics practice) "I'm hungry!! Can't you find the key faster?!" complains Bella. "I'm going as fast as I can," I say exasperatedly. I hear music from inside the house. And it isn't appropriate music. Finally, I find the key. I tell Bella to hold it. I take out my soundproof headphones and put Bellas favorite song on it Better when I'm dancing(©)by Megan Trainor. I put them over her ears before entering the house. The house is littered with empty bottles and blood. There is a radio playing music but no one in there. I tell Bella to go to our hiding spot. She runs. When she is out of sight I start searching for someone. I hear an earsplitting scream. I race over to Bellas room. There is my father. He is holding little Bellas foot. But she's not attached to that foot. She lays limp on the ground clutching her pack of Haribo™. He attacks me. Then everything goes black.
