Chapter 1.21: Dear Universe

-
Dear Universe and Christy,

I apologize that I haven't written back to you even though I got your letter a week ago. It's been very difficult for me and my little sister this past week. I don't even know where to start explaining, someone I knew and who was important to me passed away. The police and the doctors said it was a heart attack but he was healthy. I don't understand it, not one bit. Toby was like a father to me, he raised me pretty much and now he is gone. 

I'm sorry.... I shouldn't be talking about such sad things with you. You're both so young and have so much to experience even if you are a ghost, Universe, don't let it stop you from doing what you want. Christy, live your dreams and always have fun, okay?

Mama took us to get our hair done and cut, I decided to cut mine shorter than I would have been okay with before. I'm a different person now, I don't feel so happy and young anymore. I feel lifeless and tired all the time. There I go again, talking about sad things and being all depressing. 

Here, I'll tell you about my little sister Serene. She's such a social butterfly, and wants to run around in pretty little dresses. 
That's her in the pink with the long black hair, like mine, but she has my mother grey eyes and I have my fathers dark brown eyes. Do you like my new hair cut? It's pretty cool I think. One day I'm going to mail you a painting and you can put it up on your wall, tell everyone that people DO paint still. 

Till next time,
Isobel


Isobel put the letter in a nice little envelop and put it in the mailbox; she went upstairs and decided to paint. Painting always helped her when she felt down and with Toby's passing, she desperately needed to paint.

    Oh wow, I wonder how long she'll stay depressed. This is hard to see.

Tabitha "Daddy, can we talk?" I asked. I kept thinking about what I overheard mother saying to this boy, and I couldn't believe it. If what she said was true, then I had two siblings I didn't know about and it was kind of upsetting. All I've ever been told was that I was an only child, and now it's like my whole world turned upside down. "Yes sweetheart?" Daddy asked, smiling at me. I always loved how he talked to me, like I was the only thing that mattered. I smiled, but then shook my head. "Who are Joseph and Valentine?" I asked. I wasn't sure what I was expecting to hear but I sure didn't expect to see the color drain from his face. He looked genuinely afraid, but of what? "Where did you hear about them?" Daddy asked me, and I frowned. "Mother was talking to someone, I think his name was Hayden or something?" I asked, shrugging. The boy wasn't important but the names were, the names of

"You want to have our wedding here, baby?" Seth asked me. He had that dreamy look in his eyes again, like he always does when he talks about our future together and I smiled, it was pretty here. I could just see it now, walking down the aisle in my wedding dress and Seth in a nice suit as my mother smiled at me at the end before giving me to him for the rest of my life. "You can see it too," he whispered. "I do," I said softly, and he smiled. "What if we have have another baby in a few years," Seth asks, "I'll try real hard to make sure it's a girl so we have one of each." I laughed, it was just like him to joke around like that, and I shook my head. I wasn't anywhere near ready to have this baby let alone to start thinking about a second baby. "Okay, baby. Maybe we will stick with one kid for our family and get Valentine to push out some little cousins for our boy," he said. "Do you think we'll be

"Alright, I want an update on our progress! Sofia? What has your research said?" Serene asked. "Well... It hasn't really said anything. It just talks about Garlic and how it supposedly repels vamps," Sofia said. She nodded, looking to Ashton who nodded in agreement and then looked back to Sofia. "The only other thing I found is that some vamps can be out in sunlight," she said quietly. "WHAT?" Mateo yelled suddenly. His eyes narrowed, and he stiffened. "You mean the bloodsuckers could be walking around in plain sight?!" He asked. "Yeah...." Sofia said, she looked upset. "I found that certain books have more information on vamps," Ashton said, and looked around at everyone. Both Sofia and Mateo looked at him, curious. "Want me to order them for us?" he asked. Serene nodded, this was good. Actual progress in finding the vampires and driving them out of their town. "Yes, go ahead and orde
