It was Marcie's 6th birthday, July 8th. Marcie's mother, Abigail, believed that a doll would be a prefect gift for her daughter considering she had a collection when she was younger. Little did Abigail know, that dolls weren't the same anymore... Marcie was so excited because it has her 1st doll, it had long black hair, and what looked like an old fashioned wedding dress. The doll was like an antique so, Marcie wanted to name it something special. After a few hours, she had came up with the perfect name, Ophelia. Abigail had no idea where she got that name from, but she loved it anyways. Everything was going well with the doll until two weeks passed, then that's when things started to happen. It all started when Abigail lost her favorite earrings, she asked Marcie where she hid them because they're the only ones in the house. Her response was the weirdest one, she said "Mommy, it was Ophelia, not me." Abigail was shocked to hear her daughter lie, because she was such a good kid so she didn't understand her behavior. Marcie explained how Ophelia had hid them, but she won't tell her where it is. Abigail didn't believe her of course so she said, "Marcie, why are you lying? Just tell me the truth so this can be over with." "I'm not lying Mommy, Ophelia took them, i know they're your favorite so why would i do that Mommy?" "I don't know Marcie, but you need to stop making such silly lies." "Mommy i didn't, Ophelia did, and she won't tell me where she put it because she said if she does, then i will tell you and she will kill me." Abigail had never heard such things come from her, so she sent her to her room, and put the doll in a cabinet.

Words We sat on opposite sides of the room, she was asleep. I think he was exhausted, so was I,but we both didn't want to sleep. We couldn't sleep, maybe a bit scared that if we close our eyes then she will be gone. Nathan"I'll ask the nurses if they can organize a bed for you" Me" Am fine here" He didn't argue, for once he didn't try to control the situation. "You can get one for yourself" Nathan" I'll sleep next to her" For the next two days we spent waiting for her to wake up. Each day felt like a huge battle that we were losing, it felt like she was gone and maybe we both knew she was gone but we didn't want to admit it. Days turned into weeks, Nathan and I refused every suggestion the doctors made. Some days they said she was improving, would be taken to surgery then they would discover something new. It just felt like nothing was working, and our options were limited. Me" I can't stay here" He didn't answer me, I grabbed my things and went to the door. "Don't give up" He whispered, I turned around and looked at him. Me"I need to bring her toys here, I need to bring Mr Elephant, she needs her toys here." "I just need..." I bit my bottom lip fighting the tears "I'm sorry for everything" Pulling up in our drive way, my mind took me back to when Nate and I moved in here. The house has changed over the years, we have also grown up in a lot of ways. We were happy, we thought we had it all figured out and it turns out we knew nothing. I also never imagined myself here, in this house with him. Maybe subconsciously I know I don't belong here, maybe I am the reason my daughter is fighting for her life right now. My bad luck, why did I think I could be happy?. I drove back to the hospital and Nate was sleeping, I put the sandwich on the table then Mr Elephant next to Claire. Looking at them, I couldn't help but reminisce about the first time I met Nathan and how we got to this point in our lives. !
