“Your grandfather didn’t just die Faith, he was murdered. My father put rat poison in his wine that night that our families got together for a dance. I tried so hard to stop him but he locked me up in my room so I couldn’t.” Embry had a shaky voice and a loud cry now. My head swarmed with terrible thoughts that I couldn’t get out of my head. My whole family thought he died of a heart attack. What if my parents really knew the truth and weren’t telling me? Why is Embry going for me and not anybody else? I collapsed to the ground. Lily immediately ran out from the popcorn cart and held me tight. It felt like my world was coming to an end. Embry kept apologizing like it was all her fault.

It wasn't until Ashley pointed out a light down the road did we start to notice the sound of barking. I was so nervous that it was a guard dog to notice Abby escaping my grip. She was running to the light, hollering at the top of her lungs, 'puppy'.

Amanda finished cleaning the mess and the house, and she went to find Tabby to ask to go to the party. She looked all over for Tabby, and could not find her. But she did find a note on the fridge that said “see you later.” Then she knew that her step-sisters had already left without her. She threw herself down and started crying wishing that she could have cleaned faster, and

I have raised my voice for, and will continue to raise my voice for, people less fortunate than myself. More specifically however, I often stand up for and help my autistic older sister, Abby. Ever since I can remember, I have felt obligated to fulfill my duty as a "little-big brother", because she is older than me. Whether it be taking her to school, taking her to baseball games, or playing "Dogoply" with her, I have tried to imprint a positive attitude on her so that she can continue to grow into an even greater person than she already is. One time after a football game junior year, I was hanging out with my classmates when the topic of Abby came up. They all talked about how they were the best of friends with her and how they loved her. Sure, all of

The main character in this story is a Jewish girl named Alicia. When the book

“She spends what little time you let her be in the house with him. When you kick her out, she walks to the office and spends the day sitting at my desk. What do you propose we do then, Alice? She is still your daughter.”

Vera Dietz’ life is crazy. First her best friend abandons her for some detention head losers, and then he dies.

So with all the weight on her shoulders, Vera is faced with many big decisions.

She ran out of the car and into the house. She was met to Officer Johnson who would come by the house when her mother called the police station since she hadn't come home yet. But this time it was different since her mother knew exactly where she was since she had in fact driven her. Officer Johnson explained to both Abby and her father that at 10:35pm Mrs. Fercus was involved in a car accident. She was struck by a truck while crossing a red light where she died instantly on impact. It seems that she was on the phone at her time of death. It dawned at Abby that when she didn't pick up her phone, her mother became really worried when she didn’t answer the phone so decided to pick her up. That night Abby lost her mother and her father blamed her for the love of his life death”I wish you were never born. All you ever been was a burden in our family. I could never understand as to why your mother could ever love a monster like

Callie started to throw herself around in her chair and she thrashed around. The officer came back into the room unstrapped Callie and calmed her down. Both of them were shocked and they looked like they had seen a ghost. The officer walked over to the alarm switch and said “By law I am supposed to arrest you, but I can tell that you love her more that anything in the world so I am going to sound the alarm and you are going to run as fast as you can into the woods.” Before Callie could say anything, the alarm went off and the officer was gone. Callie knew that she had to run as fast as she could so she did. She ran and didn’t stop, however she ran into a boy that she knew Logan. They ran into the woods however the bloodhounds caught them and the police arrested Callie and Logan was not found. Callie was taken to a facility which she found out was

Caroline had her hands around Emily’s neck yelling that she will not abandon her. Emily had to do everything possible to get her mother off her. She tried talking to her but it was no use. Emily’s last resort was to try to push her off her. Once she got her mother off of her, she ran into her father’s office, which had been her safe haven since the years after his passing. Emily knew she had to call the police, she was scared of losing her mom, but it was the right decision for them both. She called and it felt like hours until they arrived when it was really just ten

All she could think of was that she had betrayed the only loving father figure she had ever known. He had shown her so much kindness and compassion and now he was to die at her metaphorical hands. She didn’t know how long she had been there, but she knew that she went through this pseudo-life completely robotically, uncaring of who visited whether it be her nurse, her doctor, Em or Mae. She hardly slept at night. Her sleep plagued with bloodcurdlingly macabre nightmares that continued nightly with a chilling persistence. She was so rue-filled and lost that she didn’t realize that her self-destructive tendencies were tearing her family apart. She internalized all of the blame and guilt, despite the fact that while Al had been her stand-in father, his morals were too loose. He had killed too many people to be left alive. Somewhere deep in the recesses of her cluttered and sleepless brain, she knew that her and the rest of The Outfit were criminals, just like Al. In return for Al’s conviction, her and the rest of their family wouldn’t be jailed. She didn’t realize that though she had doomed Al, her and the family would be let free, and there would be one less gang out on the streets of Chicago. She let herself waste away, oblivious to the fact that she was the family’s rallying point, now that Al was gone. Without her, they were lost. Nitti was even

There are a number of teachers that I could mention in my journal today, there is Miss Lamb, who helped referred me to the Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) program. Mrs. Child, my third grade teacher who I still have lunch with from time to time to discuss literature. Even Mr. Ford, who would lend me books from his daughter’s personal library because we had the same taste in literature and he knew how much I loved to read. Throughout my years as a student, I have had the honor of being taught by many great educators. However, the most influential educator I have had in my life is the one who not only helped jumpstart my career as a student, but also offered me my first job, and that is my kindergarten teacher Mrs. Walker.

The phone rings. It’s three am. Mrs. Smith knows something is wrong immediately. Her son Sean, seventeen year-old, straight A student, and local high school quarter back, didn’t come home last night. He never called. She answers the phone, dreading what will come next. It’s the state police. There was an accident on Route 5, a head on collision. Her son was driving while intoxicated. He swerved into the other lane, right into oncoming traffic. The driver of the other car didn’t make it. She died on impact. Her son was on his way to the hospital, he lost a lot of blood. They didn’t know if he would make it either.

When I arrived at Susan house she was upset because over the weekend the children had dropped her phone in the bathtub. She told me she had the phone on the charger in Emily 's room since no one usually goes in there. She told me, Cody went in the back room and took the charger and the phone into the bathroom to show Emily , while she was in the tub. Miss Orbach does not know if Cody put the phone down or handed it to Lucas, but he got a hold of the phone and threw it in the tub. This is bad for Miss Orbach because she keeps the dates and times of the family appointments in her cell phone.
