Hey thanks for all the reviews... sorry I haven't wrote in a long time but I've been very busy...keep the reviews coming!

After a few men took Billy's body away one of the police officers drove Summer home. She had stopped crying but still had some tears in the canners of her eyes. She opened the door and went into her house. She watched the policeman drive away and then looked around the house.

"MOM" she called but there was no answer. She went into the kitchen where there was a note on the table.

THIS IS WHAT THE NOTE SAID...

Summer,

I have been called to work for an emergency. I will not be home until tomorrow night but I trust you can take care of yourself while I am gone. Here is $30.00 for you to order a pizza or something, if you want you can have a friend sleep over tonight so you are not alone. Be back soon. Love you..

-Mom

Summer thought about what her mother said about inviting a friend to stay the night but she realized she would have picked Kate. But Kate wasn't here anymore. She had moved and there was nothing she could do about it, so Summer decided to just stay alone. She also decided not to use the money her mother left and to just have cocoa puffs cereal for dinner.

She ate and cleaned up after herself. Then went upstairs and called Zack to tell him the bad news about Billy. She hung up soon because he had to have his medicine. She watched TV for a few minutes then tried to sleep but couldn't...she kept thinking about everything that had happened...Kate moving, Zack getting badly hurt and Billy dieing. She finally fell asleep around 2:35 A.M.

The Next morning Summer woke up early and went to school. She was sort of excited because Zack was going to be in school because h got out of the hospital that morning.

She went to school and saw Zack. Everyone in school was quiet all day because of what happened to Billy. She went to the library after school with Zack and they did their homework...

"What's wrong?" Zack said.

"what do you mean" Summer asked.

"I mean, well you aren't acting like yourself."

"I don't know. I think its just all the shock from what's been happening."

"Oh." Zack said. They didn't say much more the rest of the time. Then Zack walked Summer home. Summer's mother wouldn't be home until late tonight and summer didn't feel like telling her mother all that had happened with Kate and Billy so she wrote her a note and left it on the kitchen table explaining everything. Then she went to bed.
