Amanda was excited to go home for the weekend. She waited for her sister to arrive on campus. Amanda waited while she text her bestfriend, Melissa.

Melissa:

Amanda:
I miss you too. We can finally hang out now.

Melissa:
Srry Eric and I made plans already.

Amanda:
Ok cool.

Melissa:
Awee don't be mad at me

A loud honk pulled Amanda from her phone. Hesistantly, Amanda stared at the brand new car in amusement. The passenger window gradually scrolled down. Amanda sigh of relief that it was her sister behind the wheel.

"Your going to just stand there? Girl get in." Amelia said, while opening the passenger door, sarcastically

"When did you get this?" Amanda said placing her bag in the backseat

"Nice right. Come on lets go." Amelia said hurrying her younger sister

Amanda sat down amazed by the interior of the car. She pulled the door shut then put on her seatbelt. Amelia drove away from the campus heading into the busy traffic. Amanda ceased the silence instantly turning on the radio. Show Love played at a medium volume. Amanda turned the volume up while singing along with the lyrics.

Keep showing up

And I'ma keep showing love

Do you want it bad enough

I'ma keep showing love, showing love

Don't you forget it

I want you to be there, to be mine

Keep showing up

And I'ma keep showing love, showing love

All through the ride to home, Amanda and Amelia listened to music. The sun kissed her skin while the wind blew past her face. Amanda's surroundings became familar to her. Amanda felt overjoyed and a little nervous. After a few minutes, Amelia made a pit stop at Dollar General. Amanda furrowed her eyebrows wondering why they stop here.

"I'll be back. Do you want anything before I go inside?" Amelia removed her seatbelt

"I'm good, thanks." Amanda declined her sister offer

"Okay. I won't be long." Amelia said before leaving the car

Amanda gave her a nod. She averted her attention to her phone. Minutes later, Amelia came out the store with bags on each arm. She unlock the car placing the bags in the back. Amelia closed the back door walking over to the driver's side. Entering the car, she put her seatbelt on then started the ignition. She pulled off continued the route back home. Amanda felt tired so she felled asleep during the rest of the ride home.

The car came to stop but Amanda saw nothing but darkness. She started to panic until she heard her sister telling her to remain calm. Amanda realized she had a blindfold. Amelia quickly pulled her hands away as Amanda reached for the blindfold.
