The picture was of me, Michelle and Silence lying on the beach, the happiest expressions on our faces. How I wish I could do that again, with him, my best friend. Michelle noticed my sorrow (I swear that woman can read minds!) and placed my head against her chest. "It's ok Amara." She whispered gently, stroking my hair as she said it. The days following were horrible. Thoughts reeled inside my head so much, it made me dizzy. One morning, I just didn't get up and Michelle began to worry. "What's the point?" I asked my cousin, petting Patches who was also beginning to worry. "Patches is right here, you're right here, why else get up?" With that she left, her head down. I didn't fall for it though, her "I give up" routine. "She's up to something, Patchie." I told my cat who purred in agreement. The next day, I woke up hungry to a room full of girls. Tell me she didn't, I thought in horror. Rei looked straight into my eye to see if I was awake. I pretended to be asleep still. Lita however didn't fall for it. She whistled in my ear (which I can't stand by the way) causing me to sit up and push her away. " I guess you figured out why we're here." Mina stated. "Yep" I replied, my eyes closed. I'm not one of those get-up-and-be-active-type of people, so I was still sleepy. " Talk to us, Amara" Serena pleaded. "It'll help." I sighed and prepared to tell the story of Silence.
