AUTHOR'S POV

"Do you want me to go in with you?" Dennis asked as he squatted before Amie.

Amie shook her head, a smile on her face. "I'm fine, dad. I can go in on my own."

Though she was scared. It's been so long and she didn't know if her still remembered her, but she didn't want her dad to be worried. Besides he had to go to work she couldn't let him stay back in school with her because she knew it was something he could do. Dennis had glimpsed the uncertainty in Amie's eyes before she smoothly covered it up with a smile. He was going to call her out, but he stopped at the last minute.

"She probably needs to handle this herself," he thought to himself.

So instead, he pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Make sure you take your food, okay?" She bobbed her head, her smile still in place. "And if you need anything, go to the principal and ask him to call me, or your mom, okay? "Yes, daddy. I will."

He removed a strand of hair from her face. "Be a good girl, okay?"

"I will, daddy."

He heaved a sigh and finally said his goodbyes, praying that she'd be okay.

Amie waved until her dad was out of the school's parking lot.

She stood before the large building of her school that now looked menacing. She wondered how many students would be there. What will they say when they see her? What if no one recognizes her?

She squeezed her eyes shut, putting a halt to the train of questions. "Just go in and get your answers," she whispered to herself. Then she walked to the building.

She stood awkwardly at the door, peering at the students that stood around at their lockers, talking among themselves.

She sighed happily. She missed all of this. The assignments, the lockers, how they'd race one other to the cafeteria, clutching their lunch boxes and so many more. She missed it all.

She took a deep breath, preparing herself for whatever would happen. Just as she took a step forward, she heard a scream.
