Chapter 1: Hard Beginnings
I had a feeling that something was wrong. It just doesn't feel right, I got up from the bed slowly, making sure not to wake up my lil sisters and brother; Chloe 7, Shali 5, and Edwin 3. I walked down the hall to my parents bedroom where I heard faint gasping noises and then I heard a CRACK and a loud thud to the floor. My eyes widened as I listened to the weird sounds. the door was crazked opened a lil so I swung the door open to see my father hovering over my mother's body. Her body was in a position its not supposed to be, her head faced me, eyes opened wide, her mouth agape. My father's eyes grew big as I stood there and looked at my mother and made slow steps to my mother's lifeless body. There was no cue for me to cry because the burning sting of tears just came and the waterfall began. I looked up to my father and said, "How could you, you have four kids and you kill their mother!!" I was basically speaking with no words from how hard I was crying. He bent down to me and said "Babygirl, I-I, I apol-, I'm so-," he didnt finish, he just walked to the window and stopped, turned around one more time to look at me me and said "One day you will understand." And with that he jumped out of the window and was gone, he just left. I was so shocked. I looked back at my mothers lifeless body and held her hand and cried some more. Now my mind had to wrap around the fact that now, I have 3 kids to raise, with no job and lil money. As soon as I said that, I heard tiny footsteps, I turned around to see my lil brother Edwin, on the verge of tears as he saw his mommy. He opened his mouth and screamed so loud, it woke my two sister and they ran to my parents bedroom. They all were frozen looking at my mother. I turned all the way around and held out my arms and they all ran to me and cried their hearts out into my shoulders. I pulled away from all their wet faces, and said " Listen, I want you all to pack all your clothes because we are leaving, mommy and daddy is gone, I will protect, love and care for you, OK? They all looked at me with sad eyes but nodded OK. My sisters quickly ran out the room but Edwin stayed wrapped around me and looked in my eyes and said "Sissy, where are we going? Who did this to mommy?" I just brought him closer to me and cried and he cried with me. I looked over my shoulder looking st our mother, our DEAD mother. I looked back at Edwin and told him to go with Chloe, Shali and they help him pack. He ran out to my sisters to go help. I stood up and walked to house phone and made a quick call to Julio. He was a friend of the family and he was trained for situations like this. The phone rang a few more time til he answered the phone "Hel-Hello" "Julio, it's Sydnei" "Hey Smiley (the nickname I've been called since I was a little girl) how's my lil home doing" "Julio listen, mommy is dead, daddy killed her, I just need you to take care of mommy please, I have the kids were gonna go off, I can't keep them here." "Wait a minute, Smiley are you serious, your mother's dead, and you are not going off just anywhere. You will come to be with me you and your siblings, do you understand?" With Julio, he was like another parent but far away, he was a big part of the family, with little family we had. So anything he said had to go. I rolled my eyes, knowing that I wouldn't win this, so I simply said "Alrite Julio, just hurry. Its hard looking at my mom like this." With that, he said OK and hung up the phone. I walked to the door and turned to look at my mother to see her eyes still open. I quickly walked over to her and bent down and closed her eyes sofly before leaving a kiss on her forehead, got up, walked out the room but not before closing the door to a chapter.
