Little Anabelle.

She held her head and closed her eyes, tightly. She cringed at the laughter from her friends. She let out a deep sigh and stood up. She headed for the door, grabbing the keys on the way. She wasn't sure where she was going, but she had to get out of there. She couldn't be locked up in that house for one more second.1

Silence filled the room, when she slammed the door behind her.
"Karyn, Where are you going?" her roommate called out to her.
"I don't know," she said as she opened her car door and got in. She rested her head on the steering wheel, with her face in her hands. "God," she prayed out loud, "Please, I beg you, give me the strength to move on." She let out a big cry and backed out of the driveway.2

She ended up at the cemetery. She drove through the opened gates, that lead into the cemetery. She parked on the side of the road, and walked over to the grave stone, where little Anabelle laid. She dropped to her knee's and bursted into tears. She put her face in her hands and weeped. She sat there and cried for hours. Karyn layed her head next to the grace stone, and stroked her fingers over the ingraved words: Here lies a beautiful baby, a gift from God, little Anabelle. 3

Flash back:4

**She was so excited when she found out the great news.
"It's a girl," she said, holding her big round stomach. "Her name is going to be Anabelle."**5

"I love you, baby." she said, forcing herself up.6

Karyn walked into the living room, still in her PJ's.
"Where'd you go last night?" her roommate, Mary, asked, sitting on the couch. Karyn turned around and headed towards the kitchen.
"Karyn," she called, getting up from the couch. "Are you alright?"
Karyn ignored the question and poured herself a glass of milk. She felt Mary's eyes watching her.8

"What?" Karyn asked, turning around. "I can't be human and get mad?"
"You can," Mary began, "But not for no reason."
"Whatever, I don't have to explain myself to you." Karyn said walking away.
"I don't know what your problem is but you don't need to be a bithc." Mary said. Anger boiled up in Karyn.
"I'm a bithc?" Karyn turned around, yelling. "Well then, F.U. You don't know shiit, so shut the hell up!"
"I would know shiit, If you told me." Mary yelled back.
"No, all you gotta do is mind yourself." She shouted, starting to get a bit hot.
"I'm just concerned," Mary said. "I'm really worried about you."
"Why," Karyn asked, "You're not my friend. All you are is my roommate, so like I said before, mind your own self." Karyn yell again and walked away. Jared walked out of his room, rubbing his eyes, sleepily.
"What's goin' on in here?" he asked.
"I was just leaving." Karyn said, and walked past him.9

Days went by, and Karyn was still having huge mood swings. She drinking more than she usually did, also.11

**"I need another beer," she said, as she dropped an empty beer bottle on the floor. "Jarey Bear, Can you please get me one?"
"I think you've had enough," he said, playing his video game. "What's up with you and drinking so much?" he asked, still focused on the game.
"I just want a drink," she said.
"Okay," he said, not even trying to figure what was wrong with her.
"Are you going to get me one?" she asked, slurring her words.
"No," he said.
"Fine, I'll get it myself." she said as she got up. After a few steps she stumbled over and hit her head on the table stand.
"Shiit," Jared said. "Mary, get out here."**12

Karyn laid on the hospital bed, staring off into the distance. She let out a big sigh and rolled over. 'Lord, What am I going to do?' she asked, thinking, to herself. She closed her eyes and saw Anabelle, sleeping in her crib. She stroked her hand softly, over the baby's head. A light smile came across Karyns face. Then she opened her eyes and saw her mother sitting in the chair, next to the bed.
"I think you need to come back home," her mother said softly.
"No," Karyn said, "I like it here."
"Just for a while." her mother begged.
"I can't go back," Karyn said as her voice trailed off, "I just can't."14

--15

**"Hi, I'm Karyn." she smiled, looking at Jared. "I got your flyer and it says you have a room for rent."**16

Karyn moved away from her home town, to escape her problems, but now they were coming back. After two years, of her depression, she decided to move, and starting her life over. A fresh start. But, deep down, she wasn't over with what happened.17

--18

Karyn came back home from the hospital and walked into the house. Jared and Mary were sitting on the couch, waiting for her.
"Karyn," Mary began, "We need to talk."
Karyn sat on the couch. "I know, it's time I've told you." She said.
"Okay," Jared said, "That was easy."
Karyn lightly smiled. "Um," she said, fittling with her fingers. "I had a baby and her name was Anabelle. She was the most beautifulest child ever. She was only three when she passed away," Karyn said looking down as tears filled her eyes. "And, I think of her everyday, -"
Mary cut her off, "You don't need to talk about it if you don't want to."
"No, I need to." Karyn said. "I spend forever trying to pretend it never happened. Like, she never existed. It worked for a few years, until now." Mary and Jared got up and hugged her. Tears poured out her eyes.
"It feels so good to let it out." Karyn smiled. 19

She wasn't crying because she was sad, she cried because of joy. because she can finally move on. She finally realised she can move on without having too forget Anabelle.20

Later that night, Karyn had a dream of Anabelle. She was sitting in the corner crying. Karyn tried to reach out and hug her, but Anabelle would only move father away.
"Baby," she cried. "Come over here and hug mommy."
"No," she said crawling away. "You didn't come for me."
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"You didn't come for me, mommy. You just let me die alone." She said and dissapeared. Karyn's heart fell out of her chest when her daughter said those words. She knew it was a dream but it felt so real.22

Karyn woke up in more tears. She stared at the celing, afriad to go back to bed. Then she knew what she had to do, she crawled out of bed and wrote a note:
Dear Mom, Dad, Jared and Mary,
I love all of you. You've been go great to me. I apperiate everything you've done for me, Mom and Dad. And thank you, Jared and Mary, for caring for me, I really needed it. I left so lost, lonley and confused. I needed to be with my baby girl. And now I know how to be with her. Please don't cry, I'm happier now. I'm the happiest I've ever been. I'll see you all on the other side.
Love, Karyn.
P.S. Please bury me next to my baby girl.

Mary dropped the note and cried. Jared call the police and her parents. Karyn's mother almost passed out when she found out.
"Was she not thing about how I felt?" she cried, knowing no one knew the answer. "Before she wen't and killed herself? Now I lost my graddaughter and my baby. I loved Anabelle too! I loved her too! Ugh, I want my baby girls back!" she cried and hid her face in her husbands shoulder.24

They put the funeral together. Karyn was burried next to Anabelle, just like she wanted. They put a new grave stone up. It read:
A mother with her beloved baby, at last.
