Missing

Camren

That day Camren just slept in. Jackson was getting ready for all of his extensive classes, and LeLe was busy at Headmistress Bloodgood's house where she was staying. So that day, and now the night was a pretty boring and lazy day.

Moments later her mother and father knocked on the door and went inside their daughter's bedroom. Her mother sits at the foot of the bed and her father stays in the doorway. Both of them have wide Cheshire cat smiles on their faces. They tell Camren that they have some good news to tell her, she asks what it is.

"You're going to be an older sister. And this time we're not making them out of spare dead parts," her mother says.

"Why can't I stay an only child," Camren asks.

"We noticed that you were a little lonely honey," her father said, "You haven't been talking to the majority of your friends. So we figured you might like some company."

"Plus we've been planning this for the last year," her mother added.

"I'm not lonely," Camren insisted, "I hang out with Jackson and LeLe. It's just my old friends I haven't talked to in a while."

"Well, this baby is coming in nine months so you're going to have to get used to it and not being our only child." her father sternly said, "We'll leave you alone again to give you time to think."

And with that, her parents left. From under her pillow, Camren pulled out her diary and began writing in it. Tonight she decided to use light blue ink.

September 1st, 10:00 pm.

Mom and Dad just told me they're having another child. I guess being an older sister could be cool. It'll just take time getting used to. They said they were worried about being lonely. They thought it was because I haven't talked to a lot of my friends in a while. I admit I do miss them every day, and if I could tell anyone about this news I'd tell them but I can't. They also can't find out how dad got that money so fast. No one can know. Not even mom and dad know. I guess this is something I'll have to keep to myself.
