Charlie's mother gets taken away by a mysterious man in the middle of the night . She'll do anything to get her mother back , even moving across the country during her senior year and let's not forget the help she gets from the handsome bad boy next...
"Go hide in the wardrobe Charlotte !" my mum whisper yelled, nudging me away as the footsteps grew louder and louder. We were standing in one of three bedrooms within our home, trembling to the core as heavy footsteps grew closer and closer.
Papa was working that dreadful night when I last saw mama. When the world last saw mama. Safe to say I made it to the wardrobe; mama didn't...
I watch motionlessly through the small crack between the door and doorframe when the hooded man punches mama to the ground. My petite eleven year old body trembling with fear and confusion as he leans over and places a ring onto her finger, removing the wedding band that was crafted by papa all those years ago. Mama's emerald green eyes widen in shock, or was it fear? The man firmly states, "I'm sorry but you have to be returned to him, there is no other way," before reaching into his pocket and grasping his phone, snapping a photograph of mama vulnerably lying on the floor clutching her abdominal. The eyes that use to shine with glee when she looked towards me , her beautiful soft brown locks that closely resembled my own, her perfect smile that lit up the room... I never got to see them ever again. The man pulled out a gun and shot twice at mama's legs. She screeched in agony as he effortlessly threw her over his shoulder and walked out of our family home. I never saw mama again after that day. No one did. Even after all those years I can't help but wonder what my life would be like if I just stepped out of that wardrobe and chased the man away. Perhaps Mama would've still been here. I can't focus on the past. she's still out there. I know she is.
