Why?

In confusion, I look at the book as I desperately try to finish my novel for my English class. I look beside me, seeing a glimpse of the run down gas station outside of my window.

I think snacks would help me finish this assignment. As I walked to the convenience store, I desperately open the door and went down aisle three and grabbed a bag of lays with  some cup noodles. As the cashier checks out, he asks me if I have a sibling. I live alone, with no trace of my mother or father. I have no siblings, as far as I know. I kindly respond," No, I don't." The dissatisfied man kept ranting on about how he's seen someone who looked just like me. I don't know anyone, neither do I have traces of someone related to me other than my grandmother. I simply walk out, because I have nothing to do with this ugly old trashy man. I returned home, eating my noodles and working on the homework. Hours later I managed to finish most of it. I put on my purple zebra print gown and lay down. I think about what my mother and father could of possibly looked like. I have very unique features, and I would easily spot out my family as I seen them. We have something in common, grey or blue eyes.

I received a call from a unknown number. "Hello who's this?" I was anxiously waiting for a response.

Unknown Caller ID
"Hello, Victoria."

Me
"What?"

Unknown Caller ID
"Don't play dumb haha. I have something for you."

Me
"You dumb bitch, who are you? I don't know you, so SPEAK UP!"

Unknown Caller ID
"Watch your tone, you would regret saying that to someone like me."

Me
"Anyways, I don't have to be on the phone with you man... bye."

People think that they can just call me and boss me around. I have no mother, and I have no father. Why would I care about what someone has to say to me?

*Ring*

Someone's calling again. It gets really annoying when someone keeps ringing until you finally-

*Ring*

Me
"What?"

Unknown Caller ID
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, that was my husband. It's me, Victoria."

Me
"Oh mother! I can't believe you haven't been in my life all of this time... I can't wait to see you!"

Unknown Caller ID
"I'm not your mother, and my husband isn't your father. Lets not come up with assumptions darling. I do have something to tell you though. I have your grandmother with me."

Me
"What do you mean!? Who even are you? Why are you with her in the first place?"

Unknown Caller ID
"Oh sugar, you were disrespecting me earlier. You don't deserve any detailed information. But I will tell you this, come down to Salis road. Trust me, I won't hurt you. I can't hurt you."

I have nobody in my life other than my grandma. She was the one who taught me about the real world. She showed me everything I needed before I moved out at 16, now having my own place. I will put my life on the line for her. I grab a knife out of my small kitchen, and run outside to my car. I don't know if I should really be going, I would be putting my life on the line if I go there and they put a knife to my chest, or a gun to my head. I have nothing to do with gangs though, so I won't have much to worry about. I arrive at some closed off area. It's not abandoned or anything, but it looks almost as if royalty lives here.

I drive around continuously looking for a place to enter but I can't find one. I see a very beautiful woman standing at the big gate and she asks me where I'm headed. I don't know what to say because I didn't know the caller that told me to come here, I just knew which block to come on. This was indeed the only house I saw because I had to drive up an entire mountain to get here.

Me
"Hello! I don't know where I'm headed, but a lady called me and told me to come here because of my grandmother."

Woman
"Oh okay, we'll I'm not allowed to let in just anyone. You seem like you're being honest, but I have to be cautious. Kandy will be mad at me."

Me
"Who's Kandy? Also, who are you?"

Woman
"Oh, Kandy is one of the owners of the house. My name is Jana. Don't call me that, please just call me Mrs.J. If you want to call me Jana though, it's fine."

Me
"Okay, so can I come in or not?"

Jana
"You can drive to the door, after I check you for any weapons. If you have any on you I might have to-

Me
"Sis, you ain't doin' nothing to me."

Jana
"I won't do anything harmful to you, I said I liked you. Just take any weapons off and give them to me if you have them."

I just handed her my knife, I didn't want any trouble with this Jana girl. I just wanted to help my grandma. As I hand her the knife, I hear distant screams coming from the mansion.

Me
"Bye, have a good night Jana."

I drive up to the mansion, jump out of my car and knock on the tall black door. This tall lady who seemed to have the walk of a rich elegant lady with tall heels, walks to the door. She slowly opens the door as I get more and more anxiety of who it will be. The screaming stops. She looks to be 6 foot, with heels making her 6 foot and 2 inches.
