~The part below is continuing from the last chapter...(to flashback what happened last) MAE'S POV)~

---------------------------------------------

"I know who's shes talking about," Mae quietly said. You could hear the fear in her voice, but she looked completely serious.

MAE'S POV

Everyone turned to Mae, she looked frightened.

"Are you sure Mae?" Claire asked.

I nodded.

"They were two males. One looking in about late 30s, early 40s and the second one late 20s, early 30s,"

"Anything else?"

"Yes,"

I then explained every detail coming to crinkles on their face or a stray freckle. I remember them very well. I have seen them around the neighborhood before. They hid very well though. They would hide behind trees, trash cans, cars. It was like a one-way game of hide-and-seek.

"Mae?" Ms.Walker asked.

"Y-yeah sorry," I shook my head trying to get out of my thoughts to focus.

"Claire asked how you remember all that," Ms.Walker looked confused.

"I guess I just do, they stuck out to me,"I lied.

"If you remember it you could run them over our sketch artist to help with the looking," Claire suggested.

"No thanks, I can draw them myself. It took some drawing classes before I was adopted," I said.

I was actually a good drawer. I had sketch pads full of sketches, final drawings, and doodles. I used to sit outside in a field and draw whatever came into view.

"Alright, can you draw it tonight and give it to me tomorrow morning?" Claire asked.

"Sure,"

We all got up from our seats. After thanking and saying good-bye to Ms. Walker we left the school.

In the car I replayed in my head every action that the guys did.

When we finally got home I ran to my room and got out my sketch pad an went to my secret drawing room (AKA MY CLOSET). I started working on the head shape when I heard a noise in my room.

"Mae, are you in here?" Rosella said.

"Closet!" I yelled back to her.

She opened the closet door revealing enough room for her to fit to. She sat down and looked at the drawing I started on.

"Your really good, how?" Rosella looked into my eyes, she looked confused.

I decided to finally tell somebody my secret.

"Can I tell you a secret, you can't tell ANYONE though," I sighed and looked at her for an answer.

"I promise," Rosella nodded.

"Ok, I have never told anyone this secret, i don't even think my real parents know..." I stopped looking up to see Rosella nodding.

"I have a photographic memory....Anything I have ever seen/heard I pretty much remember forever,"

I heard Rosella gasp," How can you draw so good though,"

"I took a few basic classes,and like I said...permanently remembered each detail they said and drew,"

She nodded,showing he understood.

I continued to draw the people. When I finished drawing it was 6:00 and Mother was calling us down for supper.

We ran down for supper, and had pizza and soda.

"Do you need help Mae?" My mother asked watching me attempt to open the big bottle of soda.

"I can do it," I said pulling on it harder.

Then, it fell off the table and the fizz made the lid pop off and shoot down the hall aways away.

"Oopps," I said watching the bottle stop in the middle of the hall.

"You have t-" My dad started to say before I cut him off.

"I know,I know" I groaned.

I know I'm messy,but I wasn't this messy when Camilla was here.

Oh, where is she? I miss her SOO MUCH!!!
