1. The Disappearance.

“Take care of your sister.” Mum said pulling her suitcase towards the door.“And make sure you both have dinner on time. Proper dinner Paige not Lays and soda.” She added.“Yes mum, I’m putting on my big girl shoes just for this, don’t get worked up about anything.” I said pushing my mom closer to the door.She worries way too much. She really needs to learn to relax and just trust that everything will be fine in her absence.“Lest I forget.” Mum said turning to face me.“No one goes out after 6 pm. I believe you will act responsibly.” She said with all seriousness before shutting the door, right in my face might I add. She did not even let me respond. That’s my mum for you.“I guess it’s me and you for the night little one.” I said turning to Lisa with a smile.“Cool, I can stay a little past my bedtime right?” Lisa asked excitedly. She hates sleeping early.“Only

2. The Red Petals.

“Lisa where are you?" I asked switching the lights on."Lisa please come out, I don't have time for this." I said as I searched around.She was not under her bed, not in the closet, neither was she in the bathroom and she wasn't under her reading table either.I guess this is some type of punishment from her. I’m just going to have to play hide and seek.************************************It’s been over an hour.One good hour of searching for Lisa.This game of hers was no longer funny.I have practically covered the entire house and she is nowhere to be found.Where on earth could she be hiding?"Lisa, you are right. I am self centered and really mean. I shouldn't have raised my voice at you and for that, I'm really sorry." I said calmly. Maybe if I played her game

3. The New Neighbour.

Standing at my door step with a warm and motherly smile was Mrs Palmers. “Good day Mrs. Palmer, how may I help you?” I tried my best to sound as polite as possible.Mrs Palmer is a really nice neighbor but she is also the gossip queen of our street. And that’s why her being at my doorstep right about this moment didn’t just feel okay by me.I hope she doesn't want to question me on the police visits I've been getting. "Nothing much my dear, I thought your parents will be home so I could inform them that we have a new neighbor." She said giving me her signature smile. A new neighbor? Wow. As at yesterday evening there was no sign of anyone moving in.Trust Mrs Palmer to always have first hand information."Okay ma'am, I will deliver your message to them once they come home." I said with a polite smile. "Hold on dea

4. The Secret Admirer?

"So what you are telling us is that your younger sister is missing?" Mum said calmly and honestly, it scared me.Mum and dad arrived over two hours ago and we were currently sitting in the living room."Uh...mmm. Yes?!" I said no longer sure of my own answer. I was really nervous and scared and guilty. Let’s just say I was an emotional mess."Paige I told you both not to leave the house after 6pm. How could you be so careless?" Mum said still sounding calm, but I knew better. This was probably a 'calm before the storm' type of situation."Mum, I did not give her the permission to leave. I didn't even know when she left the house. The last time I saw her was when she stormed into her room." I said sounding really frustrated.Earlier, I had planned to tell my parents about our 'new' neighbor, but seeing how they're already taking Lisa’s news, telling them who our neighbor is will probably

5. The First Note.

You know those rare and treasured days when you wake up feeling fabulous right? Today just happened to be one of those days for me.I woke up feeling strong, really really cute and most especially, hopeful.Maybe dad was right and Lisa is going to be alright.Today is Saturday, which means no school to quench my flame of fabulousness.I did my normal morning routine and afterwards allowed my nose to lead me to where the heavenly aroma was being produced.Just so you know, my mum is an amazing cook, the best if you'll ask me."Good morning this bright Saturday." I said in a singsong manner.But the scene before my eyes shut me up almost immediately.I was greeted by mum crying profusely in dad's arm. She looked so frail and shattered.I felt a pang in my chest. Mum hardly cries this hard.
