• The girl I never knew

    On Sunday morning it is time to go back to school whick sucks but on the plus I get to see Melody and Sabrina again. Which is great because I haven't seen them in almost two weeks.

    On Friday morning everyone is called to the lobby again. I look at Sakura and Maylin and whisper" What do you think is going on? "

    Sakura looks at me, at Mrs Oaks and then back at me " No clue. "

    And thats when Mrs Oaks starts her speak " I am sad to inform you that there was a large fire in the east wing of the school and part of it burnt down. "

    That is terrible. Wait the eadt wing " Sabrina. "

    Maylin gasps " OMG Sabrina's room is in the east wing ? "

    I nod.

    Sakura looks around the room " I don't see her. "

    " Before we panic lets see what Mrs Oaks has to say. " Don't panic. Don't panic. Don't panic.

    Mrs Oaks continues. " I'm sorry to say that one girl died in the fire. "

    A girl died ? Sabrina. I look around and can't find her either. " I can't find her ! "

    Maylin looks like she's about to cry. " Sarah can't you bring back the dead "

    " Maylin you know very well that you can't bring the dead back. Remember when Li tried. "

    If Li can't bring the dead back then I have no chance of bringing the dead back. Li is way more powerful then me." WE don't even know if it's her. "

    Sakura suddenly smiles. " It's not "

    Maylin looks at her sister " How do you know. "

    I follow Sakura's gaze and I see her " Because she's right there. " My heart starts to slow. " Let's listen now. "

    " The girls name was Emily Brown. "

    The twins both gasp and begin to cry.

    " Who's Emily Brown ? "

    Sakura wipes her eyes " She was our neighbor. "

    " And now she's gone "

    "We were good friends. "

    " She's the one who told us about this school. "

    I can't help feeling sad, I begin to cry. I'm crying for the girl. The girl I never knew. " I'm sorry "

    Sakura is crying again " I can'y believe she's gone. "

    Later at lunch everyone is sad.

    Melody's face is wet from crying. " She was in our Socail studies class. "

    Sabrina nods.

    Amber walks over to our table " Can I sit with you guys ? "

    I nod " sure. "

    Amber smiles. " I have no else to sit with now that Emily is gone. "

    " Well your welcome to sit with us." Alex smiles at Amber. " She was in the same french class as Chris, Ned and I. "

    Dud everyone know Emily but me ? It sure seems like it. It is always sad when someone dies even if you didn't know them. Since my dad is still in Ontario I will be staying at the Matasunoto's again until they fix the esat wing ! Not that where us everything wrong with staying there but that are all gonna be sad. Plus I'm really starting to miss my father, it's like he's gone out of my life.

    I pack for the Matsumoto's. Using magic of course. " So when's your mom coming ? "

    Sakura looks up, her eyes are still red from crying. " At two."

    I look at the clock. It's one twenty-nine.

    At the Matsumoto's we find LI sitting on the couch. I decide to sit next to him. " So did you miss us ? "

    " No not at all. So did you guys find the box yet ? "

    " Not yet. We didn't even look "

    " Oh I see. Dp ypu have any ideas on what might be in there ? "

    " Nope. I wish my mom was here to tell me. "

    " Ya I know what you mean, sometimes I wish my dad was still around. "

    " Sometimes I wonder how things would be different. "

    " Same here. "

    " I didn't even know about my powers until the day my mother died. I was crying and I made it rain. If only I found out before I could have did something. "

    " Don't blame yourself it wasn't your fault. "

    " I know but I can't help but thinking I could have did something." By this point I'm nearing sobbing. I haven't talked about my mother's death in years.

    Suddenly a tissue appears in Li's hand and he hands it to me.

    " Thanks. "

    Sakura enters the room " So what are you guys talking about ? "

    Maylin enters the room also. " Why are you crying ? WHat did Li do ? "

    I wipe away the tears on my face. " I'm crying because I'm thinking about the day my mother died. "
