A/N Do NOT own! Wish I did though!
Chapter 1
She yawned. Children yawn more than adults, she thought recalling a fact someone had told her. But today she was no longer a child. She was an adult, or at least that's what she told her self.
The phone rang. She answered it and was surprised to hear that it was the FBI. She had never really had much respect for authority, but she tried not to sound too curt with the officer. He made small talk; he had to be aware of her age. Why had he called though? Unpaid parking ticket on her mother's behalf? Something was up.
"Miss, I'm sorry to tell you that your mother Miss Caroline Kale was killed in a car wreck today." He said, finally revealing the purpose of his call.
"I see." She replied, remaining calm.
"We will be sending over a team to take you somewhere so you will not be alone." He said, taken aback that the girls tone had not changed since she answered.
"That will be unnecessary, sir. My aunt is here, I will tell her the news and we will work out guardianship and such matters after she calms down."
"May I speak with her?" He asked.
"No, you may not." She replied.
"And why is that?" He said growing angry.
"She is at the store, getting groceries." She said and with that she hung up.
She smiled at herself. She had just lied to a federal agent. Truth was she didn't have an aunt. Her mother was an only child and her father, well she thought as she went up to her mothers room and grabbed the contact information her mother had kept hidden from her, we'll just see how he deals with it.
