I am on vacation w/ Michelle, my dad, my aunt, and Marie. We are at an overcrowded beach and people can barely move around. There is a group of men who look of Middle Eastern descent splashing around in the water when one yells. I look over and see the water turning red with blood. I try to get my dad to leave the water but he is oblivious to what is happening. He tells me that it's vacation and we should enjoy the ocean. I shove him out of the water telling him that this man is bleeding and it was probably a shark.
We rush back to the condo but it is difficult since there are so many people. Michelle and I split away to avoid the crowd since we hate crowded places. The condo is very confusing and we are having issues finding our room. The elevator is made of glass but it can go multiple ways (similar to the glass elevator in Willy Wonka). Each floor has burgundy carpet with golden accents and the walls are a cream color. Chandeliers line the hallways. I think to myself how we could possibly afford a place like this!
My dad beats us to the hotel and tells us we're required to make a police statement on the matter especially since we were so close to the accident. Michelle and I both sigh. We both agree that we have school coming up soon and don't have time for police statements
A man I know to be my husband comes out of a bedroom. He looks similar to John Rayburn from Bloodline. For some reason I am annoyed that he is here and seem worried by his presence.
I tell John that I need to make a police statement and will be going to my parents' house for awhile because I am so traumatized by the incident. He says he'll come with me in support but I tell him I must go by myself. He kisses me goodbye. Michelle and I get in a black SUV and drive off to my parents' house.
Elizabeth is there waiting to greet us. She is surrounded by several people from my high school AH, DM, and one of my best friends DS. The kitchen is filled with balloons as a welcome home. There is a huge cake on the stove: multi-tiered w/ blue trim icing. I can't wait to eat a piece!
As I'm cutting the cake, I see John's car pull into the driveway. I tell Elizabeth to dress up as a clown to distract him and keep him entertained while I hide. I run up to my bedroom and decide that climbing out the window and hiding on the roof is the safest bet. I pack a small backpack with clothes and a toothbrush. I climb out and hide directly under the window.
Elizabeth opens the window. "Oh Emi-chan! You don't need to hide here. We would have protected you!"
