A distant night bird mocks the sun

I finally managed to come up with a back ground story for Stephanie that I like after tweaking it and writing so many versions. Anyhow, it's going to start out from Stephanie's point of view of her and mike's early lives then change into a regular story w

5. Chapter 5

Chapter 5 All those years ago part 2

Stephanie's POV continued

Okay let me take a few minutes to allow myself to think back on the day when we lost Mama. It was the day of Mike's 18th birthday and it was my job to go upstairs and call Mama down to breakfast since Aunt Kate and my cousin Clara were busy preparing breakfast.

I didnt think that anything was wrong since it was just an ordinary day with Mike sleeping in which was alright since it was his birthday and I guess it's normal behavior for a teenager to sleep late. But the second I approached Mama's bedroom door a weird feeling ran down my spine the second my hand touched the door knob

"Mama,its time to get up for breakfast."Stephanie said as she drew back the curtains " mama? Come on mama, time to rise and shine...?"

Approaching her mother's bed Stephanie placed a hand on her mother's shoulder and saw that she wasn't breathing. Backing away from the bed where her mother lay motionless, Stephanie ran out of the bedroom and straight to Mike's where she began screaming and crying hysterically that their mama was gone.

Still half asleep, Mike looked at his sister in confusion as

she some how managed to get him out of the bed and pulled him to their mothers room to show him what she was talking about.

Doing the same thing that she had done no more than a few minutes ago,Mike sent his sister down to get their Aunt while he stayed behind.
