Presentations

Hi, my name is Elena, Elena Miller, I am 17 years old. I have emerald green eyes and I have very beautiful wavy pink hair. I dyed them on myself after my family died. I wanted to change my mind, I was fed up with my hazel brown hair. I live with my best friend Amélia Collins, she has medium raven black hair and she has very beautiful ocean blue eyes, you could easily get lost in them. She's practically like my second sister. Our house is located in the countryside very close to the old mansion on 67th street. I don't know what's wrong with this establishment, and I'm not sure I want to know. Anyway, I'm more of a complicated and stubborn type of girl. I do what I want. Since I was little, I have always convinced myself that ghosts did not exist, that they only lived in the terrifying stories that children were told when they did not want to sleep. And I wanted at all costs to continue to believe it. Ghosts are not real. I am sure of it. These are just legends.

The evening

I look at the time on my cell, it's 11:30 p.m. Maybe I should get ready for bed. Amelia has been sleeping for 1 hour and a half already, and I'm still up doing what? Nothing at all as always. Besides, I have class tomorrow, I will still wake up like a zombie because I would not have had my hours of sleep. On top of that, Amé talks in his sleep it's super creepy. After brushing my teeth and putting on my pajamas, I went to bed. As every night before going to bed, I take the frame from my bedside table and contemplate it with tears in my eyes. You guessed it this photo is of my family. Mom, Dad, Lexie, Timo (Timothy), I miss you so much, but what happened to you? I still don't believe this car accident story and I will find the truth I promise you.

High school

In geology class

I have always hated geology lessons, I don't understand a thing but I still have an average of 80. Find the error. Seeing the face of the teacher (Ms. Evans), I knew, we all knew that today's class was not going to be like the others.

Teacher: Good morning everyone, before we start, I have something to tell you. Another student (Cynthia parker) went missing this summer.

Everyone looked at each other. And we all knew where poor Cynthia had ended up but unfortunately no one could help her. And panic swept over the whole class.

The teacher: A little silence, please. Open all of your books to page 45. Today's lesson: Internal dynamics of the earth.

But what was the teacher expecting? That we all follow its course as if nothing had happened? Pfft then there she dreams. I mean there is still another student who went missing. And everyone was concerned about it. So I raised my hand

The teacher: Yes Mrs. Miller?

Me: But ma'am, how are we supposed to take your class and pretend everything is fine right after the news you just broke to us? We are all very worried and no one has their heads on their shoulders.

Teacher: Yes, I understand your concerns. But Elena, let's face it, the class still has to go on, I have to teach you well. We can't just let go.

Me: Yeah good if you say so.

In short, the course passed and no one was completely present, we all had our heads elsewhere. Comments about Cynthia's disappearance swirled around the school. After a while, I went outside. It all made me sick.

Amelia followed me

Amé: Elena, are you all right?

Me: Yes It's just ... that I can't anymore of these all disappearances. You know. When will all this end? Will it never stop? How many more students for the police or someone to finally decide to act? 3, 10, 100?

Amé: Yeah I know, it's very worrying, but I'm sure this will all work out one day. Someone's gonna end up acting right?

Me: And who will be next? What if it was me, or ... even you? Love, I don't want anything to happen to you, I don't want to lose you, already losing Lexie was very painful so I can't imagine what I would do without you.

Amé: Elena please stop, don't think so, nothing will happen to you and me either. You won't lose me, you hear? Do not worry.

Me: Thank you, Amé, if not, did you understand something during Geo today?

Amé: Nop nothing at all and you?

Me: Me neither, I was too much in my thoughts.

Amé: Same for me. Come on home, math class is in less than 5 minutes, we should hurry if we don't want to be late. You know Mr. Taylor.

Me: Yes let's go

The math class went fairly quickly and in a rather calm and tense atmosphere. Once again everyone was deep in thought and barely listening to the teacher's explanations.

The latter must have realized it because he said: “I know that everyone is worried about the recent events but try to make a little effort, please. Today's subject is very important and it will inevitably be found in next week's exam ”
