"Good morning Palm Bay,FL. here's your daily  forecast for today . Today we have a heavy chance of rain  with a overcast  sky. So to all my drivers out there today proceed with caution  on the roads today there might be a slight flooding in certain areas today".

Leaning against  the counter with a cup of coffee in my hand listening  to the weather man go on about the amount of rain we might have today when suddenly  my phone rang. Its 6am in the morning  I usually  don't get calls unless  it's from work so when I picked it up I was  expecting  a dispatcher calling  me in to pick up a shift but to my surprise  it was totally  the opposite.  "Hello good morning how may I help " the voice that came through  I was not expecting  at this hour nope either something  important  is happening or everything  is happening.  " Hi auntie its kaiden  how you doing ".  "Snowflake  hey princess  I'm  fine is everything  okay is something  happening everything alright. " "Jeesh auntie  calm down don't go robo  cop on me giggles,  am just popping  in to say hey before you go to work ". I have to admit I was a bit in over drive for 2 seconds  its second  nature  for me and kinda weird to get calls 6am in the morning,  but it was nice I've  been  busy  with work since everyone is off to college.  " I'm sorry snow old habits , how's school going ." We spent the next hour talking about  almost everything  until it was time for me to go to work . She told me about her and all her siblings  and  all their achievements  honestly  I couldn't  be more proud  my kids give me a different  kinda happy no one can replace . Hopping in my car getting  ready to go to work I pause and  I  stared out the window  the weather man was right its raining  cats and dogs,  but that wasn't  why I paused. I paused because  the question  hit me 'what am I doing?' What am I doing exciting  with my life anymore honestly.  All my old hobbies  are so non existent , definitely  no romance here only friends  I really  have are camille  and  Soul, nobody  really  understands  me so it's hard to met new people and trust them . Sigh I was always the misunderstood out of the group so I don't  understand  why I'm pausing  now. Sigh I shake it off and pull out my drive way and make me way to work I was already late for roll call.

Finally  reaching to base I entered the meeting hall. "Good morning  A.Brooks nice of you to join us today."  I was so not here for this shit this morning the worst supervisor  is one this morning  Mrs.. E. Rolle - Fox God knows I hate this woman she gets on my last nerves with her shit . So I take a deep breath " good  morning  Mrs.. Fox permission  to  join."  
"Permission  granted Ms. Brooks try to be more on time please for morning  shift thank you." grumbling  sigh sometimes I really  wish I could  disappear  from this place . Roll call proceeded as usual and  I headed out with my partner kristen  if they even dream of changing  my partner I think  I'd  cry like a baby me and kristen  pulled up through  the ranks together . It'll  suck like shit because  now I won't have my partner in crime been getting  in trouble  together since we came on the job shake my head so I guess you can say were spoiled goods. We got  a 10 14 call on our radio  to go check  out one of the houses out east in Bali eastes  apparently  a alarm went off so we have to go check  it out . Finally  something  to do I've been  itching  for something exciting  and a reason to use the new skills Mr.Martinez  taught the guard force recently . On the drive to the house  I couldn't  help  but feel  that wave I felt earlier  this morning I tried to shake it off again but it wasn't working this time so I just starred  out the window for the rest of the ride .

Finally  reaching  to the house to my surprise it was more that just a alarm going off. I actually  couldn't  believe my eyes someone  actually  broke into the house....
