Imagine. You see your son being dragged away. There’s nothing you can do about it. You reach out to him. You’re told it’s for the better. You remember.

Narrative Story It all began with a simple Phone call one night after dinner. “Matt,” my Father Hollered up the stairs, “it’s for you. It’s Joy, and she sounds upset.” As I came downstairs to pick up the phone, I was not happy. I was tired and had looked forward to a nice quiet evening at home, not another stupid adventure with Joy. Thirty minutes later, however, Joy’s silver Mustang convertible swung into our driveway, and Joy was leaning on the horn before the car came to a full stop. Grabbing

Additionally, it was made obvious how deeply she

The air in the basement became thick, and they, both began to cough and gasp for air. Miss Margot and Miss Muller rushed into the tiny room and frantically handed them their shoes and shouted, "We
