Anna continued to read the book out loud to Ralph and Matthew who listened in, as she began to explain it- the visualization soon faded into the memory as it began to unfold. Revealing Amy (Anna's mother) now appearing somewhat older, with her normal white skin and hair pulled back into a ponytail; she was seen wearing a large green looking shirt with blue jeans and white sneaker's, she had just recently found out she was pregnant; but this didn't concern her, the life she and William had was rather perfect, and she was happy that Anna was going to have a little baby brother or sister to play with, but she wasn't far along enough to know what gender she was having.




Secretly Amy was hoping that she'd get another girl, she always wanted to see sister's play with each other and grow up together- but she was also trying to tell herself not to hope for something and to be happy with whatever she had, boy or girl; walking around in the home as though waiting for someone, which truthfully she was; she had sent William to go get some grocery's and she was waiting for him to arrive back home



Amy looked over towards the side of the room she was in revealing a much younger version of Anna who was seen playing around with some toy's, she appeared to be about three to four years of age; but this didn't concern her mother who smiled at her daughter playing with the toy's, knowing she was so innocent and small; just brought a warm smile to Amy's face, as she watched Anna playing around a bit; with Anna looking over at her, and soon speaking out.




"When's daddy coming back mom?" And with this Amy shook her head, as she soon spoke out.



"I don't know sweetie, he should be back within a few more minutes...just keep playing okay?" And with this Anna shook her head.




"Okay, I wanna show him what I made!" Anna said, as Amy could see Anna had created something out of the toy's she was playing with- shaking her head, she could see Anna returning back to playing around with her toy's; as she soon began overhearing the sound of the phone ringing; causing her to perk her head, as she began to approach the telephone and answer it.The room around was pretty simple, a hallway, a couch facing a tv, a doorway leading into a small kitchen; it was pretty normal compared to most people's homes, and this was okay for Amy; she was never one to like fancy looking thing's, how she was raised she was thankful for what she had, and she was trying to put that on Anna as well.



Amy soon answered the phone that was ringing on the coffee table that was facing the tv, as she soon spoke out.




"Hello, may I ask who's calling?"




"Amy, it's me." William's voice was heard, as Amy perked her head.




"Oh William hey, did you get the thing's from the store I mean I wa-"




"Amy listen.. I'm ..in prison...I need you to come here right away...call someone to watch Anna...please hurry." William's voice was heard, as Amy looked over at Anna who waved to her- with a concerned look on her face.
