Chapter 1 : A Short Story

Three days passed before Jingyan took a trip to Su Zhe's residence, following a familiar path to a destination with a wholly different sort of anticipation. He made his visit at night, when there were less watchful eyes and more shadows to hide his trail. When he finally stepped into the courtyard of plum blossoms, he detoured to the pond before entering the still-lit room of the house.

It was my mom's older sister, Chas. All I could hear was the mumbling of my aunt on the other end of the phone. My mom did not say much, and the phone call did not last long. My mom's face showed fear and anxiety, and instantly I knew it wasn't good news. "Trent was in a terrible accident this morning with a couple of friends out in Plainville," my mom said in dismay. She walked out to her car to charge her slowly dying phone because almost every item we owned was packed away in boxes. The house was quiet; the sound of the heat pumping away was evident. I did not know what to think; my dad and I just hoped my cousin Trent was going to be okay. My mom was outside sitting in her car waiting for a call back from her sister. My brother stood outside with her. I sat in the packed living room full of unopened boxes. My dad was in his room trying to forget about the uneasiness of what might happen. My ten-month-old baby brother was sound asleep along with my two-year-old little sister. She laid in her crib peacefully with her blanket snuggled up to her face

After some time paced back and forth on the carpet listening to her Ma rant about not being safe. Look out onto the Ottauquechee River and gazed at it for a while from their window then Chloe replied.

“Don’t worry, Angie. Dawn will be fine.” With that, and some goodbye’s, the two hung up, just as Angela was walking in the doorway.

Hayln remembered that day perfectly. That was the very first and last time her father had ever raised his voice at her.

“You gonna drive?” Alexander questions, nudging John as he lifts himself from the couch. He stretches before turning to face him. Night has already fell, and the boys were ready for a break from studying anyway.

“No it’s okay I wanna take a walk through the woods.” I said. I gave Lexi a hug and kissed her.

However, she delayed calling her parents for as long as she could, fearing their response. It was not until the ambulance came with its sirens blaring, that her neighbor came up to the house to ask what was going on, which to Jess’ displeasure ended in a phone call to her parents.

“I heard a rumor,” She continued in a slow, almost monotone voice, “Pinkie, if you are using those zebra chems, you need to stop.”

Once upon a time there was 2 kids named Jason and Kate lived in their house in California. They lived with their mom judy and their dad Jack. One day at school it was dismissal time, their parents and their parents weren’t there.They wait for about 30 minutes. Kate decides to call their parents to see where they were. Suddenly the phone starts to talk. “Hi,” the phone said.

“Joan, I know you have everything under control. I’m not worried.” Carina sat back and stretched. “Instead, let’s talk about more pressing matter, such as how I should handle the marriage bed tonight.”

His mother stopped to think, and then said in a concerning matter, “Alright, but please don't use that phone of yours until you get there. I always remind you, and I don't want to anymore. Something will happen to you.” All Evan did be nod his head. Evan’s mom was always

“Oh, sorry hon.” She said and Telly looked over and saw that his dad is there too. His dad is snickering, Telly frowned at him. “Really? Why are you guys here?”

“Sorry to wake you but Liam had to leave the station early because he was feeling sick, so can you come in?” She asked apologetically.

By now Mom had appeared at our side of the car and quickly went to Mackenzie’s aid. I was queasy and was about two seconds away from getting sick. Mom asked with urgency in her voice, “What just happened, honey?”
