Sorry I haven't wrote in a long, long time! I've been really busy, and I don't really like to write much, so... 

But here you go!

Alyssa's POV

I was still frozen. Still numb. My heart felt like it was going to explode and shatter into a kadrillion different pieces. I just couldn't think. Everything around me seemed so quiet and motionless. I couldn't even believe that I was actually able to drive at the moment.

Its been at least 30 minutes of driving from school and I finally got Nicole to stop her yelling. Well, actually I just didn't say anything, and she just crashed into her sleep. I don't even remember what I said to her because I was in a state of shock. Right now I have been trying to clear my mind with positive thoughts to relieve my stationary actions. 

Who knows? Maybe mom and dad didn't die after all! The news reporter could have said some mistakes! Maybe it was a different building! Or maybe they only got slightly injured! Maybe they escaped in time! I'm pretty sure they are fine! I'm just overreacting...

Speaking positively is pretty hard for me. Especially because I am a really negative person, always thinking about all the bad things possible in every situation. But this situation is different, and if I want to stay alive as well, I need to clear my mind, and focus on the road. I don't feel like getting in a car accident, especially when I'm trying to find out more about my parents' death at the same time.

Dammit. Again with those stupid negative comments. Maybe my parents are dead. Maybe I have to live alone from now on to the rest of my life taking care of my sister while being some random homeless, fat, cat lady. I keep doing that! Ugh! It's ok. Just breathe. You are only a few minutes away.

"WTF???!!! WHY DID YOU DRAG ME ALL THE WAY TO THE FREAKING AIRPORT???!!!!" Nicole shouted violently. "ARE YOU SENDING ME TO MILITARY SCHOOL OR SOMETHING??!! I DON'T DESERVE THIS! MOM AND DAD ARE GOING TO  GROUND YOU FOR ETERNITY IF YOU DO THIS TO ME!!!!"

For some reason, my eyes created waterworks when Nicole said that about our parents. It brought back memories, memories so clear, that I felt like I was there right now. I felt like I was in my small, pink room that very day my dad grounded me for the very first time and I was bawling my eyes out, screaming that it was unfair. I felt the day I failed my final exam in 6th grade and my parents grounded me for an entire month of no electronics, except a pre-paid phone that you could only call on. Even though it was terrible, I could still vividly see every little detail in their expressions and physicality and it just crushed me so hard inside. But I was frozen in the middle of the parking lot, so I couldn't just bawl right then and there, so I held it in as much as possible.

"STOP STARING AT NOTHING AND EXPLAIN!!!!!! UGH! YOU NEVER MAKE ANY SENSE!!!!!! YOU ARE SO CONFUSING! CAN'T YOU JUST TAKE ME BACK HOME SO I CAN ST-" I cut off Nicole as she was finishing her sentence and carried the two small duffle bags full of a couple days worth of clothing, that I had prepared before picking her up at school, and dragged her with me towards the entrance of the airport. "STOP!!! LET GO OF ME!!!!!! YOU AREN'T MY BOSS!!!!! GO AWAY!!!!!" She kept screaming at me to let go, but I was so concentrated on getting to the airport, that my grip did not loosen one bit. As  I approached the ticket counter, I turned in the two duffle bags and received my two boarding passes. Nicole was silent and full of confusion, trying to figure out what was going on, so that helped with my thinking very well. From there, I headed towards the security check with Nicole. As I went through the Security detector, I was still thinking about mom and dad.

"Mam, I would like to scan your body." The security man took me out of my muse.

"Uh, er, er, uh, y- ya uh huh" I was very confused especially after daydreaming.

"I mean yes. Go ahead." I was pretty curious for why they needed to scan me, because I'm pretty sure I wasn't wearing anything harmful.

"Excuse mam, what is this?" The security man questioned.

"Oh,that's my necklace." I replied questionably.

"Well it has got to go." He stated.

"WHAT??!! NO! That was given to me from my-my m-mother! It was passed down for generations! Why would you have to get rid of it???!!!" I exclaimed.

"The edges of the are very sharp and can be proven harmful. It must be disposed of. I am very sorry mam, but there is nothing I can do."

"E-uh-er-uh-. Please! You can't! You just can't! No! It's very special to me! And it is not harmful!" I protested. Even though it actually is meant to be a small knife that you can slide out from the side of the necklace charm for emergencies, but I guess he noticed it.

"Sorry mam, but rules are rules. Now may you please hand it to me." He calmly stated.

"No! Uh-Never! It's mine! Don't you dare lay a single fingerprint on this!" I am still in the shocked, frozen state, so I keep stuttering through words. My mind is so full of surprises, that I can barely think.

"Mam, you are causing traffic and dilemma. If you do not hand it to me now, I will get other men to physically take it off of you."

"NO!" From there, I immediately grabbed Nicole's hand and I sprinted away from the security guards pushing past people, causing a huge crisis. There were many security guards chasing and yelling at me to stop, but I just kept running. I didn't know where to, especially because I didn't know what my boarding number was and because I couldn't just stop running, and let security catch me.

After about 15 minutes of running around, I began to slow down. Nicole was a soccer player, so she was totally fine, but she kept pace with me anyway. She was also aware f the situation, but she never said a word, which was pretty surprising. Later on, more security came in different directions. 

I was trapped.

I couldn't move left, right, forward, or backwards.

This felt like just like a movie scene. I was so stressed out, that my mind couldn't process. 

"MAM. PLEASE HAND OVER THE NECKLACE, OR WE WILL PHYSICALLY TAKE IT OFF FOR YOU." One of the security guards exclaimed through a megaphone. 

"I-I-uh-er-um-mmph." I was heavily breathing and trying to think. I could not just give it away so I was clueless and out of hope. 

At the second, I clamped down and started bawling. Nicole turned red from others starring at her, so she sat down too. The security guards came by me immediately and took off my necklace. I screamed and shouted as they took it away, but that didn't affect them at all. 

My necklace being taken was like a baby being kidnapped from its mother. That piece of jewelry is special to me that I was frozen out of my mind. My entire body was numb and stiff. I am sitting in the middle of the airport with Nicole yelling at me to get up, while my mind feels completely lost.
