eight years ago on December 24 was when my parents died. They where heading back from work while my babysitter was telling me a story, I think frosty the snowman or something.
Anyways, as usual, I wasn't paying attention to the story. Every Christmas eve I would wait for my parents to come home from work. That year they didnt come back home. I waited and waited and waited until the sitter came from off the phone saying they weren't coming home. I started to shake my head
It can't be true, she must be pulling my leg or something
Soon there was a knock on the door. The sitter walked toward the door. I still didn't believe that they weren't coming so I kept looking out the window expecting their car to pull up into the driveway.
"Mam' does Amanda Rogers live here?" One of the person at the door asked.
Slowly the sitter open the front door and there stood two policemen.
" Amanda rogers?" The first guy asked.
"Yes?"
"I'm officer William and this is officer Charles, do you know if anyone has anything against your parents?"
I shook my head quietly. " no, why would anyone have anything against them?"
"Amanda, as you've been informed your parents died tonight, but not how you think they died. They were killed, and we need to know if anyone would have a motive" Slowly Charles moved closer to me.
Thats when it hit me. They weren't comming, not now not ever. I began to sob. Soon my eyes were bloodshot and tear stains went across my cheek
What am I going to do now, I don't have anywhere else to go.
Soon I ran out of tears to cry, but I wasn't ready to stop. "Wha..what's going to happen to me?" I said while my voice was shaking.
"Well Amanda we already thought about that, you can't stay here 'case the killers are still here so we arranged for you to go to the orphanage two towns over."
An orohanage, how will that help? What about the house and we'll everything?
as though William read my mind he read my mind he answered" you house I'm afraid well be sold but your belongings will be put in a storage until you are old enough to take care of them yourself"
"I guess I better go pack then....." I got off the couch and started to back away
" Oh Amanda before you do that I must tell you that where your going you can only bring what you need."Charles got off the couch and walked up to me.
"I'm sorry but it has to be this way" he's words sounder sympathetic but I his eyes I could tell that I doesn't bother him that a child is being sent away to a strange place, all he probably cared about was when he would get payed today. After an hour or so the sitter left and the policemen went to there houses. I my bed I look up at the ceiling fan and it turned around and around while I thought.
Everything's going to be fine Amanda , your going to be just fine.
I kept thinking that thought over and over until I fell asleep.
