The day after my brother turned eighteen was the day that my mother packed a bag of clothes, drove off to work in the morning, and never came back. Fletcher and I went to the police, but nothing was ever found. They marked it as abandonment and closed the case which has been collecting dust for five years. In my mother’s desk drawer they found papers that looked like a will. She left us the house and all the money in her bank account. She also made Fletcher my legal guardian. I always thought that there was more to it than that. Today I start highschool without knowing a single soul until I meet Ava Summerfield
