Yesterday I was in my uncle's basement and found a million dollars. “Let's go play in the basement,” Andrew yelled. “Ok,” Joey and I yelled. “Why don't we play Hide and seek?” I replied. After we figured out who would be the counter. We started playing hide and seek. I hid in the office that was in the basement. I felt something like an envelope. So I went to turn on the light , and Joey screamed, “Found you!” I replied, “ I found an envelope, and it might have something important in it.” “Time for lunch,” Mom explained. After we finished eating our lunch. We went back downstairs to see what was in the envelope. The envelope said IMPORTANT DO NOT OPEN WITHOUT PERMISSION.

I miss being a part of your life, even though your mother probably tells stories of me everyday.
I gave her another quick look of confusion. before she started to open the envelope. I tried to read the back since I had no idea what it was since I had just grabbed the mail this morning and threw it in my bag which I had planned to read later. I watched as she pulled the letter out of the envelope. She cleared her throat and started to read.
We all stopped what we were doing and sat down in front of the t.v,
I felt the flesh move towards me and when I took a step back it got closer.
So, I packed my things. Good thing I didn’t put up a lot. I grabbed the pens and the chocolates. That’s it. I parted ways with my friends without almost saying anything on why I had to leave early that night. What an awkward situation that was to begin with!
It was a red door in the middle of the street, rusted door handle and fine detail on the wood. Nobody knew where it came from but we all knew it isn’t a good thing. The door creaked open and a letter appeared. It was handed to me.

On each letter stamped in wax was the word, “ For your eyes only.” The letters were dated, April 17th 2013, November 1st 2013 and August 15th 2012. And then finally a date that I recognized, July 8th, 2003. A terrorist attack.
