That morning I woke up and didn’t see her in bed I had a feeling something was wrong. My mom was on the couch with a cigarette lit in her mouth. I remember looking in the ashtray and noticing it was filled with butts. She had the house between her face and shoulder while smoking. Her entire facial expression told me she was extremely worried about something. “WHERE IS MY F******* DAUGHTER” my mother yelled. At that point my heart was racing. I was so confused. I kept trying to figure out the conversation until I noticed it was with herself. She pressed the end button and then threw the phone on the table. She sat down hopeless. But 2 seconds later she was picking up the phone to make another call. “Hello. I called earlier this morning …show more content…
The police were knocking on my door. My mother was explaining to them that my sister had been out babysitting for a friend of hers last night and never returned. The cop was also a good friend of my mom’s. And as my mom was trying to explain the cop brings up how a mutual friend of theirs was pregnant. I could tell my mom was about to snap. “I’m trying to explain to you that I have not heard from my daughter since 12am and you’re seriously going to bring that up? Get out of my house. I will find her myself. GET OUT OF MY HOUSE.” my mom screamed to the top of her lungs as she pointed to the door. Her anger and loud voice created fear within me. She was not happy at all. Her mascara was falling with her tears. She was using her shirt to dry her tears and shaking her heard. Next thing you know she says “Get your coats on. We have to go look for Ebony.” None of us hesitated. My mother, my brothers, and I walked around Ambler trying to find Ebony. We kept calling her phone and repeatedly checking the house to see if she was home. There was no sign of Ebony and her last words “Goodbye, Savanah” kept repeating in my head making me dizzy. My grandma had told me we always say, “See you later,” but at eight I was too immature to correct her and then it was too
She had to wait at the firehouse to wait to find out if her daughter was dead or alive. Her friend took her kids home with her so she wouldn't be as stressed. Her husband came later to wait with her. She had a panic attack and almost passed out, but her husband said “Wait for Emilie, wait for Emilie.”
They really couldn’t do anything about it because I was sixteen and I was with my father. They told him they were really just calling to make sure I was safe, but they also told him that my mother was charging me with unruly and running away. Both charges would drop when I turned eighteen so we didn’t worry much about it. After all the phone calls were over with, we all enjoyed our meals and headed
As for my mother, she was walking, her face a mask, without a word, deep in thought. I looked
It was a cold, dreary night in the month of October in 2003. It was the night before Scarlett’s mothers funeral, she had only been 3 years old. The only thing that made her happy was a stuffed monkey with a picture of her mom in the belly. Scarlett had grown up with her dad Frank in California, and as she hit 9 years old Carla had started coming around more.
She called my mother and told her that she needed to bring me in soon because I was not looking healthy. She was scared that I might have cancer and then it hit me. All I thought about was the past month and how all of these events
I was sitting in the tattoo parlor with my head resting on the black leather chair staring at my mom from the corner of my eye. I could not tell if she wanted to curse everyone in the room or cry, I came to the conclusion that it was it was probably both. In my mom’s words, I was getting a hole drilled into my nose. In my words, it was a nose piercing. This was the biggest fight I’ve ever had with my mom.
As I slowly walked over to where my mom was sitting I dreaded the conversation that was about to happen. As soon as she handed me the phone I said “hi” and after a long silence I finally heard my father’s booming voice through the phone. “Hey sweetheart, I’m sorry to hear about you and your boyfriend.” When I heard this I couldn’t help but fight back the tears. Crying was never acceptable so I already knew better then to let him hear me cry.
and I found you here I was so happy!” My mom said happily. “How did this even happen?” Dad asked. “I told Marika I had to got to the bathroom

My mother entered my bedroom and immediately her face widened in absolute shock. “What did you do?” I froze, panicked. I had been discovered. Twelve-year-old me was sitting on the bedroom floor when she had come in.
I had just gotten out of the shower and I heard my dad’s cell phone ringing. After my father’s phone call had ended, he called me in the living room. I get into the living room, and my dad gives me the horrible news of which my grandmother was fixing to pass away. My grandmother, Margaret, had fought Alzheimer 's for a many years, but she was about to lose her battle. We were expecting her to be leaving us soon, but this phone call threw us all for a loop.
I had never ending waves filling my eyes. I was as forlorn as a new widow and and felt bruised and sorrowful as the black stone under the blue sea. Nothing made sense. My life was over. Sometimes I wondered if she had 'gone on ' to some place and just did not want to come back.
“Call an ambulance. She needs help!” I managed to plead despite all my tears. That night, my mom almost died. She is an alcoholic.
My mom, my sweet, gentle mom. My mom is like my sister, we love to talk about juicy stuff and love to share with each other what we did during the day. I don 't like to imagine myself without her because she is basically my life. She is caring and kind and always have a smile on her face when she sees me. When I say her name I get a picture of her in my mind.
