Chapter 1
Mariah:
It was a sunny morning in Georgia. Me and my family lived in Peachtree City. I have a family of 5, me, my brother Jackson, my mum, dad, and my little sister Elena. I'm in high-school. Sophomore year. While my elder brother Jackson, is a senior. And my little sister Elena is a freshman.
Well as we all know, its summer. The season to spend with family. My dad traveled to Mexico, to visit my uncle, who just recently bought a new house. While my mum had a highschool reunion, so she had to travel all the way to Washington Dc. So it's just us at home.
