The Dream (part 26)

The last time we saw Andy was in the emergency room when fell into a
deep, peaceful sleep. ( I have to do this blog in Andy’s perspective
because it’s his dream.)

I woke up and was looking at fire. I could hear nothing but screaming
and the fire engines. I wanted to go help the people, but I couldn’t
move. Suddenly, I heard Jordan and Jake’s voices, calling for help and
then I saw them trying to get out. Jordan safely got out and tried to
help Jake, but guys in all black, like the one I saw on the pe field
and my house, pulled Jordan away from Jake and took her away in a van.
They took Jake too. The men in black threw Jake and Jordan into the
van. Finally this guy that probably was David pulled up in a limo and
was talking with the men in black.
They seem to be exchanging information. I thought.
Finally, the van pulled away and Jake and Jordan were screaming my
name and their parent’s names. That was enough to give me tears. I
looked back over at the fire and saw their parents burn as well as
their houses.
“Stop… stop… STOP!!!” I screamed and everyone looked…

I woke up in the emergency room with all the doctors and the nurses above me.
“Are you okay, Andy? You started screaming in the middle of the night
‘stop’ and ‘no’. You started breaking out into a sweat hot and cold
and your heart rate and blood temperature rose. Maybe you should stay
a little while longer.” Told the nurse.
“I’m sorry to worry you, but it was just a nightmare. Thank you for
worrying about me.” I told them reassuringly.
“Ummm, okay. Please don’t hesitate to tell us what is wrong or if you
need anything.” The other nurse told me.
After they left, I thought I need to find Jordan and Jake as fast as
possible. I also need to go back to school. I have some business left
I need to do.
With that, Andy once again drifted into happy memories about everyone
he loves and cares for.

David (part 25)

The last time we saw Andy, he was losing his mind. This David dude was also in the emergency room with Andy. (This is in the 3rd person perspective the the one I normally use) 
Andy felt like he was missing something. Like some stories were told while he was unconscious. He decided to get the story.
"Hey, David? Could you please get out? It's NOT like I DON'T like you being here, but I miss MY parents." Andy told him with a slight hint of scorn in his voice.
"Okay, I will leave. My mom is calling me anyways." David replied while he was glaring at me and picked up his phone.

After David left...
"Andy, what was that about? Usually you are much nicer to friends." asked Andy's mom in shock to his behavior.
"Oh, It's just a thing we do. Anyways, I don't remember what happened, what did David tell you?" asked Andy.
"Well, you called us that you were bringing a new friend home today along with Jordan and Jake. Then David told me that Jordan called us after you got hit with a baseball. He also said that they had to leave because their mom's soon called afterwards that they had to go home ASAP. David called the hospital and took you away just as we got there. David greeted himself and told us what we are telling you right now." told Andy's mom.
"Was he on the phone when you got there?" asked Andy, hoping he wan't sound untrustworthy of his new "friend".
"Actually, he was. His face was grim, but we couldn't make out what he was saying or who he was talking to, not like we were trying to eaves-drop." replied his mom with a shrug.
I'm sorry mom, dad. thought Andy as he figured out his next move.
"OW!!! OWWWWW! Oww..." Andy screamed, faking a headache.
"Andy! Are you alright? Do you need the nurse or the doctor?" asked his mom in a frantic voice.
"No... I think I just need sleep. I'll hopefully be home tomorrow. You guys are probably tired too. You should go home and get some rest. I love you." Andy said in a weak. but loving tone.
"A-a-alright. Please get better. We love you too." replied his mom, still trembling from the sudden "headache".
Andy closed his eyes while the door close.
Ahh, Jordan, Jake, I hope you're alright... was Andy's last thought before drifting into a peaceful sleep.

Boarding school(part 24)

The last time we saw Andy, he blacked out. (This blog will be in the view of Andy. It will make more sense).
"Ughh, my head hurts" I complained, rubbing my head.
I woke up in an unfamiliar place, with my mom and dad around me.
Oh, I'm in the hospital. I thought to myself.
"Are you okay? We heard all about it from your friend, David. He's so nice." said my mom sweetly, while looking at a boy, about my age with jet black hair and in a dark blue t-shirt and some tan trousers.
"Are you okay, Andy? Did the baseball hit you to hard?" asked the boy, I've never seen him in my life.
"Baseball? What baseball?" I asked, really confused.
"Oh dear! I think he lost his memory!" weeped my mom, "Do you remember me? And him?" she said pointing to my dad.
"Mom and Dad. I'm okay, I just don't remember what happened. The last thing I remember was Jake and Jor..." I trailed off, remembering what happened.
Jake and Jordan's house. The sign.
"Jake and Jordan? Sweetie, they left. Their mom's left a message to tell you that they left for boarding school." explained mom.
"Bo-Boa-BOARDING SCHOOL?!" I screamed.
I think I'm losing my mind.

Andy (part 23)

The last time we saw Andy, he was getting worried about his friends and decided to wait until the end of the day...

It was the last period of the day, which was Math.
This is so weird! Jordan and Jake haven't come back and left no trace of leaving. I wondered what happened. thought Andy.

"... And that concludes our lesson. Your homework will be pages 201, numbers 15 and 16, page 203 numbers 3 and 4, and 204 numbers 5 and 6. Please pack up. The bell rings in 2 minutes."

I should go and visit them, to make sure they are okay. thought Andy.

At Jordan's house...

"WHAT. THE. WHAT. HAPPENED?!?!?!?!?!?!" screamed Andy.
What Andy saw was not Jordan's house, but ashes. There was no people, there was no backyard, there  was nothing. Andy was so mortified, that he dropped to his knees and started to cry, but only for a few minutes, before he remembered about Jake.
I have to get there quick! Maybe his isn't burnt! thought Andy, already halfway there. It was like his body had a mind of it's own, but the same thoughts as his mind did.

At Jake's house...
Yup. Andy was right. Jake's house wasn't burnt down. It was... broken. There were splints of concrete everywhere. All furniture was just sticks and little pieces of cloth. There was nothing left, but the little pieces of the house. The house was still technically there, just not to be lived in.
Andy was dumbfounded. It looked like the house has been through a shredder a few times, over and over again, until there were little tiny shreds of it. There was still no people.
Andy was silent.
Who could've done this? thought Andy. Wait, what about MY house?
Andy quickly ran to his house. It was still there. It just had something painted on it. The paint wrote (in red bloodish letters) BEWARE ANDY! MORE THINGS WILL BE TAKEN IF I DONT GET WHAT I WANT.
Andy then blacked out.

Thoughts (part 22)

The last time we saw Andy, he found out more about his brother and his relationships with his family as a child.

Wow... Andy thought, my brother just left, before I could even spend some quality time and make some quality memories with him? What kind of person is he? He seems evil, but nice and kind. He seemed desperate and cruel. 
Andy started crying the more he thought about his brother. He couldn't bear it, so he stopped thinking about his brother. He started to think about what to tell Jordan and Jake. Should I tell them, or not? Andy thought to himself.

In the hallway...

Andy decided to tell them the whole thing. They're my best friends! I can't think that I can't tell them something as important as this! They must know! thought Andy.

But when Andy got to class...

Andy couldn't find them. They weren't at their lockers, or in the bathroom, or the cafeteria, or homeroom. Andy tried to call their phones, but they didn't pick up.

This is disastrous! Andy thought frantically. WAIT. Calm down Andy, reason with yourself. They might just be late, Andy reasoned. Wait until the end of the day.

The talk (part 21)

The last time we saw Andy was at the table with his parents.

"The Incident?" asked Andy.
"Yes, you'll see that when you were young, before the incident, there was pictures of your brother. He was 13 years old and was happy as can be. He had a phone, loving parents, good grades, and um well a good life." explained his father carefully.
"Yes, and then, we decided that he might be getting lonely, just sitting by himself. We did as much as we could, but we felt like that wasn't enough. We decided to get another child. We told your brother and he was delighted that he will have someone to play with. We decided to adopt one, you see, and we got you... as an infant." his mom explained quickly.
"Your brother didn't like that because he had to help change you and feed you and had lots more chores because your father and I were tired. Your brother wanted an older brother and got mad that he was doing all the work for something we decided. His friends were making fun of him, his grades were slipping, and he was starting to smoke. We thought of taking you back, but we felt bad, so we tried upping our game a little. I still didn't help. It tore you brother apart and soon, it was time for college. He managed to keep up his grades just enough to get in the top university. He left as early as possible with no warning." Andy's mom started to cry.
"That was the last time we saw him. Once he got into college, he never talked to us again." concluded his father.
"Uhh, wow. Umm, thanks." replied Andy in shock.
After that, Andy slowly got up and put away his dishes, got his backpack, and walked to school, in silence.

Inquisitiveness (part 20)

The last time we saw the gang was at the bus stop...

The bus finally came and Andy was in deep thought. I wonder, could it be more than we expected? I feel like we are missing something.

Andy got off bus stop 29 and walked the rest of the way home. It all seemed like a dream that I can't remember the details to. I can only remember the first part of it, when I asked to be excused. It's like I forgot. Actually, I don't remember my childhood or my so called brother. Andy thought.

Andy went home and tried to sleep, but couldn't. He was to inquisitive. Why can't I remember anything? What happened when I was a child? Who is my so called brother? Why have I not noticed until now?
Actually, Andy thought, I never seen any baby pictures around the house like I see at Jordan or Jake's house.

Andy made up his mind to ask his parents tomorrow morning.

In the morning...

Andy woke up to the sound of his alarm clock going off and his feet tied together.

My little brother pulling another trick again, thought Andy.
Andy untied the rope got dressed and went down for breakfast, where he met his parents as usual.

This is the time I ask them. At the table was sitting his parents and his little brother.

Andy asked, "What happened to me as a child?"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at each other. His brother was the first to move. HE got up, put his dish in the sink, grabbed his backpack and left for school. Andy's mom and dad were staring at each other like they were having a silent conversation. Finally, they broke the silence.

"Why do you ask, son?" asked his dad
"I was thinking last night that it was weird that I never seen any baby pictures of like I do at Jordan and Jake's houses." replied Andy.

"Honey, you might want to take a seat and eat some breakfast. It's time to tell him Tom... about the Incident."
