Chapter Three...
I stood up and looked at Cassie. She was still crying. "Do you know when they left?" I asked. She shook her head. "Well, come on, Cass, let's go downstairs. I'll make you breakfast." I said. Cassie stood up and followed me down to the kitchen. She sat down on the small chair and put Sarah on her lap. "Why are you crying anyways?" I asked, setting a plate down in front of Cassie. She looked at me and said, "Dad has been gone since early in the morning. Mom, Anne, and Daisy went outside. I don't know why they never asked me to come with them. But they never even came back and I was waiting for them" She started crying again.
I bent over and wrapped my arms around her. "Don't worry, I'm sure they will be back before sunset." I told her. Cassie stopped crying and wrapped her arms around me too. "Are you sure?" she asked me, her eyes still swollen. I thought for a moment and found I wasn't actually sure. "Yes, I'm sure." I lied.
I knew that wasn't a good thing to do, lie to my little sister. But I just didn't want her to worry so much. I didn't want her to think they left us with no reason at all. But, that was what I was actually thinking.
When we finished our breakfast, Cassie said she was going to lie down on her bed and see if she could go to sleep because her eyes were sore and she was tired.
I got up and cleared the table. I walked over to the sink so I could wash the dishes. Then, I saw it.
