I woke up to see that it was still dark. I checked my phone. 2:38. I went downstairs to grab a water. I walked to the kitchen but something just didn't feel right. I sipped my water and went back up to bed.

My alarm went off at 11:20 because I had cheer practice at noon. I got up put on my Nike pros and a sports bra, grabbed sweatpants and went downstairs. I noticed the front door was open but I figured it was just mom talking to Janice , our neighbor. I walked to the kitchen, grabbed a water and my keys and headed to the front door.

Mom wasn't out there so I went back in curious about why she left the door open.
" mom?" "Moooom" she didn't answer. I grabbed my phone and dialed her number. Straight to voicemail.
I walked over to Janice's house.
Her car was in the driveway so I knocked. No answer. Looked around the neighborhood. It seemed empty. I grabbed my phone to call my dad. No answer. Grandma. No answer. Freaked out I went back inside and called my best friend Chris.
He answers. Thank god. He sounds as if I just woke him up.
"What do you want Anya"
"Is your mom home?"
"Anya what the hell do you want"
" is your mom home" I said more seriously.
I hear him groan and get out of bed.
"Nope"
"Your dad?"
"Anya what is this about"
"Please just look, look out your window is anyone out?"
"No this is kinda weird I'll be over in 5"
After he gets here we go from house to house knocking. No one. We go in my house and call everyone in our contacts. No one.
