I couldn't sleep again.
I'm not even surprised anymore.
I get up from the bed, woken up by the non stop ringing of my phone, hoping that the person on the other side is my dad but of course it isn't.
"Good morning Ms.Winters"
Nobody calls me that anymore.
"Yes?"
"Ma'am ,I am calling from the Mines Co"
The code name, it's the MIA.
"H-How can I help you?"
"Ma'am we'd like to talk you about your sister"
"I am a minor, would you like to talk to my father?" I was turning 18 soon, I just wasn't yet.
"No, there's a reason we call you Miss, not your father, please come to our downtown office tomorrow."
"Sure I'll be there"
"Thank you"
The MIA, is my sister dead ,what could they possibly want from me?
Cheers to another sleepless night.

I wear my best coat, apart from the one I was saving for my graduation.
Was my sister dead? I didn't know
Was my sister hurt? I didn't know
All I knew was that there was some news about my sister.
The first one in years and I absolutely had to find out what it was.
Mines Co. was located on the outskirts of the city and I took the tube to reach there.
As I reached the entrance I stopped myself and reconsidered going in.
I had spent every day hoping that my sister would come by and scare me from behind.
I almost expectantly gazed at the door while working.
It was saddening how much I thought of her and the fact that how comfortable I was with her being away that the thought of her being dead scared me so badly.
I had to get out of this alter state of mind I had created for my sister and myself.
I had to know the truth.
I had to do this.

"Hello, I have an appointment with Mr Clyde." I told the receptionist .
Michael Clyde, pen name for god knows what.
"Name please?" he asked.
"My name is Michelle Obama " I answered.
He smiled "Follow me"
Here goes nothing .
