Chapter 1: The Past Hurts
Mitchie's POV
**FLASHBACK**
Shane, my daughter, Ariana, and I were at the mall, browsing around in all the shops on a Friday afternoon. We decided to go into Sears, in hunt of searching for a new ping pong table, which Ariana was really interested in doing after playing in school.
Shane and I looked at all the choices, and, of course, checked the prices. We didn't want to go overboard, but we didn't want to buy a cheap table that will break very easily, either.
Our backs were turned on Ariana, who was 12 at the time. Finally finding the perfect table, we went to find someone to sell the ping pong table to us and bring it to the car, but our plans… well, didn't go as planned. When turning around, our little dark brown-haired girl was no longer in sight. We asked workers if they've seen a girl, about 53 inches tall, brown-haired, and brown eyed, walk anywhere past them in the store. Every one of them said no. She was no longer beside Shane and I. And where she went was beyond my mind.
Shane told me to get a taxi and go home while he went around the entire mall to look for Ariana. As long as he found one of the best people in my life, I told him okay, and quickly went into a cab and back to our house in hope that he had any luck. Midnight came fast… but Shane had not been back yet. 2 AM… still not back. I fell asleep on the couch, sad, depressed, and worried.
Saturday came fast. I woke up and yelled "SHANE? ARIANA?" running around this huge building, but no answers were given. Shane never came back from his search, and Ariana was, without a doubt, kidnapped. My heart shattered, and the entire day was spent in sadness. Not even a phone call was received from my husband and daughter… and that really hurt me.
**END OF FLASHBACK**
Now you know my story. It's been exactly 5 years now, and both Shane and Ariana are missing to this day. I've looked for them, asked people who were working at the mall that very day if they've seen them, and even asked my friends, like Caitlyn, if they've heard anything, but each had said no. The paparazzi don't even know, which is weird because Shane is usually followed by them everywhere he goes considering he's in a major band, Connect 3. Because of Shane missing, Connect 3 split, and I feel like this is all my fault for not paying attention to Ariana. The loss of Shane and Ariana… all because of me.
I've been living alone for the past 5 years here in Hollywood. I don't even have a pet. The two losses just hurt so much that I never got remarried, never had any more children, nothing.
I had given myself a promise, however, the day after all this happened. Find Shane and Ariana within the next 6 years. And I was going to stick to this promise. There was one more year left… and that was perfect timing.
Hope you liked the first chapter! It's short, but whatever. More coming soon! Please review!
