I woke up lying on a bench. A girl was sitting right at the edge of the seat. She turned her head in my direction.
"Someone I don't know just died today." said the girl. She had the expression of a kid who just ran away from home.
"Why would you say that? How do you even know?" I asked cautiously. I sat up slowly and edge my way to her. "Everyone dies sooner or later. I could have easily said,'someone is getting married, or, someone just had a baby boy', but then it wouldn't be fun to say. If I said that to someone, they would say,'oh, that's nice. Who's was it?'" said the girl, without emotion.

"Well, that's true...But still! Its like you are making a wish for someone to die. Isn't that cruel? I mean, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't like it." 'Whats wrong with this girl? Normal girls shouldn't say things like that.'
The girl got up and started walking towards the national public park. I also got up quickly and followed her. I noticed that her eyes hardly blinked and that she had a stick. 'She's blind.' I realized in sympathy.

"I don't really care what people wish upon me. It never works anyways." She sighs and lower her head as if she was staring at her feet. By now, we have entered the walking trail in the public forest.
"Mom and dad tried to put a curse to 'help' me, because I said the Junie, my rabbit, was my only relative and mom and dad were my adopted parents...But It was true! Junie was my brother. their 'helping' never worked on me. Instead, it 'helped' my parents. They first went insane, then killed each other. Everyone said I killed them, thinking that i lost my mind in rage."

I looked down at her in shocked silence. 'What the hell did she go through? She's not even a teenager yet!'
She continued on saying, "They all tried to curse me but in result, killed them selves. From house to house that I stayed in, they brought me to witch doctors, gave me weird drinks that makes me past out."

"But all that is done, and now I only do my job." Said the girl. She chuckled a little and looked at me straight in my eyes.
I stared back right in her pale silver iris. 'Wait. Isn't she blind?'
She smiled a little too knowingly and said, " yes, I am blind, but i can see you."

"What? You're blind but you can see? How is that-?" I started to say. She cut me off, turning her head to the setting suns' direction. " Anyways, its getting late and you have to go before sunset. The Dark Ones will take you if you don't."

"What are you talking about? Dark Ones? Before the sunset?"

She looked back at me and smiled sadly, and whispered, "someone I don't know  died today. And it was...YOU."
Well....the title is true. my moms great aunt (i think?) died to day. my dad wanted my siblings and i to write a story based on a sentenced my mom pick out. and she picked " someone i don't know died today."
