Chapter 16
Remembering is hard for the soul
As soon as my parents heard the news, they came storming through the hospital and taking me out of there despite my doctors best wishes. I smiled at him and gave him a thumbs up to show him I was okay, and he did the phone symbol and mouthed call me. I was glad he stayed by my side after that horrible ordeal, he and Cadence stayed by side me throughout the night.
I was spooked and I told them both about my dream, even though I was sure he doubted my story, he listened and asked questions like Cadence. I was happy that it seemed that he believed me, and he was extra curious about Bubble gum.
So was I, I explained it over and over but it still seemed impossible. How could she know I was there? Was she pyschic too?
My parents parked the car in front of our house, my mom gently grabbed me and carefully led me upstairs to my room. When we reached my room my parents tucked me in my bed and looked at me concernedly. I could see them better and my mom looked pale and scared while dad looked lost.
“Are you okay, sweetie?” Mom asked me.
I nodded. “Better now, mom did you get any sleep?”
Mom shook her head, “doesn’t matter now, as long as your okay.”
I nod as my mom kisses my cheek, she casts one more worried glance at me. “Call me if you need anything.”
“I will.”
She gives me a dazzling smile and leaves the room, dad stares at me a few seconds before begrudgingly following my mother. It was weird, it was as if they switched roles, mom looked worried while dad looked annoyed.
I shake my confused thoughts as I think back to the girl with the bubble gum hair, she had said Serache, that must be her name. But I’m sure now that she wasn’t the one who had tried to suffocate me, but she probably was just was as important.
I’m going to need to find her. But that’s going to take some time.
And I’ll have to wait.
Or maybe not, I think as I close my eyes and think of the girl again and my sister, I might just get another vision if I’m lucky.
If only my sister had something, anything, that can conjure anything up. I’ve racked my brains for hours, but still I have no idea of a girl named Serache with bubble gum hair. I sighed.
I stood up and went to my closet, I pried off the special tile and my hand searched for something that I haven’t touched for years. It took a while but soon enough I felt my hands close on a hard surface. I closed my eyes for a second, took a deep breathe and then pulled my hand with the object out of the tile.
It was a a craft book, designed by a giddy young pre-teen whose family was happy back then. There’s all kinds of pictures of us in there, I remember dedicating most of my time into this. And when our family did break apart, I put even more time into it, I’d take thousands of pictures, I remember even Dorothy complaining.
Serache didn’t look familiar, none of them did, but maybe, just maybe, I met them. Probably walking by them on the street, or when Dorothy and I went to the mall and a ton of her friends stopped her to say hi. It could’ve been anytime, I had to spot at least one of them.
I flipped the pages, cringing at our extremely bright smiles, if only we knew what would’ve happened, we wouldn’t have been that happy. It was agonizing to look at every picture without having to feel the wave of sadness, hopelessness, and anger that course through me, but I pushed aside my thoughts and kept looking at every picture.
I had to study them, and look more closely, in case there was a detail I’ve never noticed before. After minutes of endless nothings I stopped at one certain picture. It was of me and Dorothy, bright smiles pastered on our faces and hands on our hips in a sassy attitude style.
There was probably nothing wrong with that, but if you looked behind us there was something strange. They wore normal clothes, looking ordinary. Their head was turned toward us, their hair long that it reached past their belt, covering their face perfectly. All I could see was a portion of their lips, which were full and pouty, their body was obviously female, I would probably be worried if that was not the case.
The only other indicator of importance was the hair color, a dark sheen of black, the same color I have a reason to believe my attacker’s hair was. Could it be?
It was hard to tell if I had seen her before, she was shielded perfectly. Did she do that on purpose? Did she know the camera would get her? I furrowed my eyebrows as I studied her hard, waiting for any source of recognition, but it never came.
Frustrated I took that picture aside, and started to look through the other ones. But they barely had anything except indicators of where my sister has been. One picture made me pause in particular, we were at one of those shopping plaza’s, it was a sister-sister thing we wanted to try.
I was practically floating the morning of our day, Dorothy was having a good laugh at my happiness, but I couldn’t help it. I got to spend time with a sister I adored, it was one of the happiest days of my life.
I closed my eyes and smiled, remembering how I felt, and then when I opened my eyes I was standing the plaza shopping place.
I smiled to myself, finally a good memory, even if it was a vision.

The whole of the mountain will crash down and roll over me - but it does not crush me.
Human physical strength has limitations and it weakens in time. 'Inner strength' knows no bounds!
The confines of this earthly realm have no bearing.
Let it be done!
Let the horns sound that shake the foundation.
Call forth the titans. Summon up the dread that lies buried deep within the heart and mind.
Let the godless fear when they face the charge.
The lost will flee or loose heart.
'And in the darkening late hours when the ground rumbles like an oncoming train...I will draw from deep wells what cannot be poisoned or tainted or overturned. I will stand, though the tides rise and the clouds threaten...and there I will remain, even if I show signs and cracks of care and hardship.
I will not be broken.
I may grow weary.
Though all the elements come against me
and tear at flesh and bone!-I WILL STAND!
Why can't the world become a fairytale book?
It wouldn't be as mean
But it may be much more green
Dragons that can be your pet
Princesses with hair for rope climbing
Pumpkins that can turn into horse carriages
And cats that wear boots and fight mice.
The people in reality aren't always very nice
But even the ogres and giants can say hello and give you nice things
Princesses aren't snobby queen bees at school
Princes aren't egomaniacs
And money is in gold, silver, or copper or even magic beans!
Hens lay golden eggs
Poverty can end in five seconds
You can get your own fairy and wish for whatever you want
And have your any desires
But I guess this is all in the mind
But the world can be kind at times
It isn't always bad and cruel
But imagination makes it go around
It wouldn't be as mean
But it may be much more green
Dragons that can be your pet
Princesses with hair for rope climbing
Pumpkins that can turn into horse carriages
And cats that wear boots and fight mice.
The people in reality aren't always very nice
But even the ogres and giants can say hello and give you nice things
Princesses aren't snobby queen bees at school
Princes aren't egomaniacs
And money is in gold, silver, or copper or even magic beans!
Hens lay golden eggs
Poverty can end in five seconds
You can get your own fairy and wish for whatever you want
And have your any desires
But I guess this is all in the mind
But the world can be kind at times
It isn't always bad and cruel
But imagination makes it go around
