Lost In The Stars

Prologue*

There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 1440 minutes in a day. On an average, there are 30 days in a month and 365 days in a year. 7 billion people on this planet. And there's always one that can take your breath away. No matter what time of the day. What month of the year. Nothing will be able to take the pain away at that very moment in time. 12 hours ago I had a call from my local hospital, this call had the power to change my life. My father. My only parent had been injured severely in an accident in his workplace. He only had days left to live. And in that moment of that stupid phone call, my life would change. His last breath would change my life.

My name has a meaning. The meaning is 'Fathers joy'. My name is Abigail. Faith is my middle after my mother, who died in a car crash I was present in. My last name is Archer. Abigail Faith Archer. I lived with my mother, father, and brother for 10 years. That was until the day of the crash when I lost not only my mother but my brother too. My brother left with no note, no message, he left with no goodbye. Since then it was just me and my father.

My father died on April 23rd, 2014. My only friend the only person I loved. Being fourteen when it happened I had nowhere to go so social services did the only thing they could. They found my brother, he was my only option. They told me that he was now 25 married and had a 4-year-old daughter. I guess I was going to live with Todd Archer once again. And from that moment forward I wished that I was lost in the stars with my parents.
