Danny was walking home from school. He looked at the ground as he walked back home. He had missed the bus and flunked his math test. He kicked a mailbox, trying to let out his anger, but just ended up stubbing his toe. He hopped around until the pain dulled,then stopped. Today was Mother's Day, he thought to himself, when the funniest thought crossed his mind. "I don't know my mom's name," he said to himself. He chuckled and kept walking, his mood turned around.
He felt a sudden chill, but shrugged it off as changing spring weather. He was almost home. He felt uneasy, but he didn't know why.
He stopped when he realized there was another shadow behind him. He turned around to see no one there. Weird, he said to himself. He turned and kept walking until he felt a light tap on his shoulder. Danny turned once more to see no one there.
Slightly disturbed, he started walking faster, only to have something whisper in his ear. It's time to die, the gravelly voice declared. I am death, and it's your time, the voice said once more. Danny, thinking it was a prank, turned around only to be confronted by a tall, faceless being in a black, tattered robe. The being pulled out a certificate. Danny started to panic, reading the paper only to stop with a face that was both relief and alarm.
That's not my name! Danny said. It said Danni Park. My name is Danny Park, with a y. Death disappeared into thin air. Not this time, Death called out. Danny walked to his driveway with a spring in his step. He picked up the present he had bought her carefully. I can't believe it! He exclaimed. He walked inside and dropped his present. His mother lie there in a pool of blood. Her guts lie everywhere, pulled out of her body. A smiley face was written in blood on the wall, along with some writing.
Not this time. Danny gasped, tears running down his face as he walked quickly toward her purse. He pulled out her drivers license and started sobbing.
Danni Park, it read.
