Friends and Family
We moved from place to place over the years, but then settled down in a small town called Angel Wings. Here was only one school but not many children. It seemed like a pleasant place to live but for me it was like being in hell. Everywhere there was dust and sand maybe even a patch of grass. No one else minded but me. As I grew up over the years I never forgot what happen to my mother. As I learned new things I learned that my mother was dead and we were never going back home!
'Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Aura, happy birthday to you' my dad sang. It was my birthday and I was turning fifteen, it had been ten years now that my mother had died. The only people I invited were my best friends Ava and Coco. I met Ava first and she introduced me to Coco. We then became best friends. My father fell in love with Ava's mum and in the end they were married. Ava was okay with the whole thing but not me, I hated the whole thing, I loved being round Ava more but I liked my real mother she was different not like anyone I had ever met.
A few nights after my birthday I was hanging out with Ava at the pond when our dad came running out of nowhere towards us. 'Where's Emily?' he said while he tried to catch his breath.
'She's not with us!' I said.
'I haven't seen her since yesterday' Ava replied.
'she hasn't come back yet!' our father yelled as he ran away. Ava and I followed him. We looked for hours when finally Jack came running screaming my name 'Aura, AURA!' he worked with his dad in a little shop down the road, he was the same height as me, he had light olive skin and dark brown hair but blue eyes. I thought he was cute but all the girls wanted to date him so I knew I had no chance. 'Aura we found Emily in your barn!' he said 'but she's… dead.' Ava started to cry, she fell to the ground with a thump. Dad just stood there and said nothing, I was about to say something when 'Aura stay here with Ava and Jack' my dad said as he walked away. It seemed Emily had suffered the same fate as my mother.
Later that day my dad told me to go for a long walk. An hour later when I came back our front door was wide open I slowly walked in, I stopped when I saw nothing, there was nothing there my dad had packed everything up and left without me I walked around the house and found a note on the floor I picked it up and it said…
