A two month has passed since then, the abandoned church was cleaned, items were placed to one side neatly, over the days few days she had collected usable things from off the street. Much to her dismay she couldn't clean the walls as she wanted to so she got rid of all the cobwebs and dirt.
She had a half clean mattress, a small usable cooler, a few clean clothes she stole, a pair of big boots, a small hairbrush, a toothbrush, tiny soaps and some snacks she stole from a store. Luckily the store manager was barely there and the worker was a horny teenager that had her boyfriend come four days every week.
She felt bad but it had to be done.
She closed her eyes and a meme out of her parents appeared in the flash of a light.
There they were smiling and laughing, it was her 14th birthday. She didn't want any presents, so only wanted to spend time with them, that's what she told them. And they did just that. They ate cake, a tub of cookie and cream ice cream and dressed up. In the night they all cuddled tot her in her parents room and watched her favorite cartoon. Oscar Oasis.
Her mom fell asleep first, her dad nudged her and asked how much she loved them and she replied with; "To the ends of the earth and beyond"
That brought tears to his eyes, he hugged her and reached for something in his pocket. She watched as she took out a silver pendant and gave it to her. He kissed her head and told her that it was her birthday present from them both.
She opened it. There was a picture of her mother, her dad and a tiny baby. Her mother looked to be in the hospital smiling tiredly as she stared down at the baby lovingly and her dad tears in his eyes and a huge wide grin on his face as he stared at his two girls with pure love and joy.
Dad's beautiful girls~
It read.
Too bad she lost the pendant, that's what he told her.
She cried as she curled herself up in a ball and a familiar ache all too familiarly in her chest. She fell asleep failing to notice a bump on her stomach.
