In the previous chapter I forgot to mention that Gaz was now 14 years old and she was in 9th grade either in junior high or high school, but her school is still referred as "Skool".
The second chapter (this chapter) is about some of Gazlene's memories as a little girl when she reflects about her past while viewing photos of her family.
Gaz was bummed out about what happened to her mother that day many years ago, but she managed to make it through sixth period in Skool despite having a bad mood.
Back at her house that day after she and her brother returned home, Gaz opened the storage box in her room and took out her family scrapbook that she had kept for years.
"Oh mom, why did you have to leave our family? I miss you so much and I wish you could come back.", Gaz thought to herself as she viewed the photo of her mother in the album.
-Flashback-
Three year old Gaz was spending time with her mom and brother Dib at a Bloaty's Pizza Chain Amusement Park for the first time on a weekend afternoon.
"Mommy I wanna go on the bumper car." Gaz said to her mother.
"Alright dear, but I'm driving the car." her mother replied to her.
Gaz and her mother seated and fastened in one of the bumper cars when it was their turn while her brother who was not interested in riding watched them from behind the fence railing.
"Mommy, bump that car over there." Gaz said as she saw another bumper car driver that was about to hit the side of the car that her mother was driving.
Gaz and her mom quickly made a move and bumped back the other car before it hit.
*Four minutes later*
Time passed and Gaz's turn on the bumper cars with her mother had ended.
She and her mom got off the ride.
"I hope you had fun Gaz." Gaz's mother said to her.
"I sure did." Gaz replied back to her mom.
-Flashback Ends-
Gaz's first day at Bloaty's Pizza Chain Park with her mom and brother was one of the best memories in her life. It was also the first time she went on a bumper car.
"I really enjoyed that day with you." Gaz thought to herself.
Gaz turned to another page in her scrapbook with photos of her entire family.
One specific photo displayed a younger version of her parents, her brother, and herself.
She and her brother were still toddlers back then when the photo was taken.
"That was our first family photo with all of us in it." Gaz said to herself, as she was speaking to her mother's spirit.
"Ever since you left us, our family became incomplete."
In the next chapter, Gaz will discover how her dad met her mom.
