"Tressa! Tressa, where are you? C'mon, this isn't funny!" Maddison walked through the empty house calling her friend's name. This wasn't like Tressa. She always answered.
Maddison got a sick feeling in her stomach. She ran up the stairs to Tressa's room and pulled back the covers. Tressa's KPAC shirt and sweatpants stared back at her. No, Maddison thought. This...this can't really be happening... "God why?" She whispered. Then louder. "God why?! Why did you leave me behind?! Why?!"
Maddison fought back the tears that threatend to spill over. Tressa's really gone... Maddison couldn't think straight. All she could do was gather her stuff in her backpack and head to KPAC.
