Melissa Rodrigez:
Conspiracy
Chapter Ten
The Statue of Liberty was very beautiful. The green rusted copper shone bright in the sun. We walked up the stairs to the Statue's crown. We stayed up there for awhile and took millions of pictures.
Anna's face seemed to turn a light shade of green. Mrs. Stella noticed this too. "Anna, are you feeling okay?"
Anna groaned and said, "My stomach hurts badly."
Mrs. Stella thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I should take her to the restroom. This won't take long."
After they left, Mr. Hunt seemed anxious. "Anna has been afraid of heights since she was a child," Mr. Hunt said with a worried look. "I can't believe I forgot. She must feel quite sick and scared."
After waiting for what seemed like hours, I decided that I was going to go see how Anna was.
"I'll go check on her," I said, heading toward the restrooms. I couldn't find the restrooms anywhere! 'Where could they be?' I thought to myself. I ran frantically, and then right as I spotted the restrooms, I bumped into Mr. Hunt.
"Melissa! Sorry for bumping into you," Mr. Hunt said chuckling.
"It's okay." I laughed.
"I know that you were going to check on Anna, but I decided that I was too. Have you had any luck?"
"Yeah the restrooms are over there," I said pointing to a hallway.
"Thank you," Mr. Hunt said sprinting to where I pointed at.
I started to walk there as well, but I saw something that caught my eye. It was a folded paper on the floor. Then I thought back to when Mr. Hunt bumped into me. He had dropped this.
Inside was a phone number. I couldn't decide whether or not to call it.
Just as I was pulling out my phone, Mrs. Stella, Mr. Hunt, and Anna came toward me. When I saw them, I shoved the paper into my pocket, hoping not to forget about making the call.
"Melissa, it is time to go home. Anna isn't feeling well and we need to take her to the doctor," Mrs. Stella said. I looked over at Anna and was surprised by how awful she looked.
"Okay let's go home," I said heading toward the elevator.
