The day has begun. The Collection. The one day that our government takes any one that seemed like a threat. I'm not sure if we look like a threat. Random people get taken usually. I lead to my bed and cry, what if our family is a threat to the government? My mother opens the door with a slight creak. It's she yanks my blanket off and kisses my forehead. "There is nothing to be afraid of," She says softly "they won't take us, I Promise." My whole body shakes with fear. "But what if they do!" I scream "shhh" she says "I Promise they won't."
