Elizabeth ran to her sister's bedroom and peered inside curiously. "Jane, it's time for break-" she stopped dead in her tracks and stared at her sister's empty bedroom. "Oh," she said to herself. "Jane must be outside playing." It was a lovely day, after all. There were+- two singular clouds in the sky, floating away and it was sunny and warm. "Elizabeth-" started Jane and Elizabeth's mother, a tall and frail woman named Flora. "Mother, don't fret," said Elizabeth. "I believe Jane is in the garden." "Elizabeth-" mother repeated sharply. "Where is breakfast, mother?" Asked Elizabeth, changing the subject. Flora put on her concerned smile and did not speak. She pointed to a single dish on the table and turned to avoid Elizabeth's eyes. "Where is Jane's?" Asked Elizabeth, eyes full of curiosity. "Elizabeth," their mother's eyes were full of pain and hurt and there was evident hesitation as she talked. "Please." Still, Elizabeth's voice was calm and serene, like a whistle through alight breeze. "Mother, I want to know where Jane's food is." "Elizabeth..." Mother trailed off, full of tears. "You must stop this." "Where's Jane? I don't see her outside," continued Elizabeth, turning her head back and forth to look around through the windows. "You've got to make Jane's food, mother, before she gets home and realizes!" "Please stop," begged mother urgently. "That's enough, Elizabeth." Though she had not realized it then, Flora was crying. "Jane! Oh, Jane!" Called Elizabeth but before another peep could be let out, Flora grabbed the hands of her daughter and yanked. "Stop it, Elizabeth. Stop it," cried mother. "Jane's gone, and she's not ever coming back." Elizabeth had knee the truth, but now that it had been put into words, her world crumbled. The familiar morning breeze flew through the windows and a picture of Jane fell face first onto the floor. On the back of the frame, it wrote: Jane Miller, 1999-2020. ————♡———— ✎ credits . writing by me :D ————♡———— ✎ anyways, that's it for today. leave questions + comments below. please keep in mind not to steal my thumbnails, story, ideas, or anything else without asking. even if you give credit, asking is still the best way to go. thank you! :D . see you next time! ————♡———— ┊ ┊ ┊ ┊ ┊ ┊ ˚✩ ⋆。˚ ✩ ┊ ┊ ┊ ┊ ✩ ⋆。˚ ┊ ┊ ┊ ✫♡ ┊ ┊ ✩⋆。˚ ┊ ⊹ ✯⋆。 ✯⋆ ⋆
