Chapter One

The shadows lifted slowly. Oh, so slowly. Another tear rolled down my cheek. I sniffled, covered my eyes, trying to keep myself from watching the gruesome scene. I took a silent, deep breath and stood. I walked to the scene as the murderers left. I collapsed to my knees, willing this all to be a nightmare. I let my hands hover over his body and sang silently the only songs he sang to me. A hand grabbed my shoulder gently, rubbed it. "Angel..." The voice I once never had to turn to for anything, I now depended on. "My dad...Why my dad?" I shouted as if the murderers would return and give me the answers.

I woke with a jerk, a scream. A tear slid from my cheek as my father opened the door. "Angela! What's the matter?" He rushed from my doorway and sat on my bedside, holding me tight. I gasped. I buried my face in his shirt. "You're alive!" I said. "You're alive..." My dad pulled me back. "Of course I'm alive. What on Earth caused you to think I was dead?" He interrogated.

I told him about my dream, the way it had seemed so real. The hand on my shoulder, the voice I thought I'd recognized. The person I was supposed to 'depend on'. My tears slowed, my breathing calmed. My father remained unusually silent. So did I.

Although Dad told me to get some sleep, I couldn't barely blink without hoping and praying that I wouldn't see the awful dream again. Instead, I pondered on who the person was that tried to comfort me. A female; that was all I knew. I mentally scolded myself for not turning around in my dream.
