tomorrow to take it to the police station. I asked if I had to go and he said he didn’t see why I should.
    When it was time for bed, I was scared, so I asked the boys if they wanted to sleep in my bed. I had a double bed. They both said no. I told them I would tell them a really good story so they said okay.
    After we put on our pajamas, we went to bed. I started telling them a Cinderella story but then it got nice and gory about how the mom died. Then, when I got to the kissing part at the end, I called it, “Mooey, Mooey,” which is a funny thing to them, they laughed and we all went to sleep.
    The next morning, we all woke up tangled around each other, I loved sleeping in a dog pile.
    My mom took Chanda and me to school since my dad was going to the police station. I told Chanda in the car all about the note and she looked scared.
    I kept looking for the weirdo all day to see if he put a note in my bag and I didn’t see anyone.
    My friends at lunch were intrigued about this guy. They acted like it was some Lifetime movie and I was the star. I didn’t want to star in my own Lifetime movie, I wanted to be left alone.
    My mom picked up Chanda and me and she told me to look in my backpack. I did and I had a red rose. All three of us screamed like little girls. I didn’t know how he was getting so close to me.
     
     
     
    CHAPTER FOUR
     
     
    When my father got home, he had a lot to say and so did I, I let him go first, “First of all, your fingerprints were the only ones on the notes. So, he is either using some sort of tool or he is wiping them down,” my father said.
    “What kind of tool?” my mother asked.
    “ Like tweezers or something that will pick up the letters to glue them. There was absolutely no DNA so he didn’t lick them. He must be using regular glue or rubber cement.”
    “ What do the police think?” my mom said.
    “ Well, they think two notes are more serious than one, and that he got close enough to put it in her backpack—they are concerned,” my father said.
    “ Dad, he put a red rose in my bag today,” I said.
    My dad’s face turned red in anger.
    “I don’t like this, he is playing with you,” he said. “He means to terrify you.”
    “ I am not having any fun,” I said.
    “ I know, sweetheart,” my dad said, hugging me.
    “ Do you think he is dangerous?” I asked again, with my lip trembling.
    “ I sure hope not, because I still have my Navy training,” my dad said.
    “ Thank you, Dad,” I said, kissing him on the cheek.
    I went to my room and made sure my windows were locked and my curtains shut. I wanted my brothers to sleep with me again, but I decided to brave it out.
    I woke up with my heart pounding, did I hear something? I started to sweat. I laid there in my bed for about a minute. Then, I grabbed my pillow and blanket and ran to my brothers’ room. I shut their door and locked it.
    I didn’t know what was happening to me, was I just having a panic attack or did I really hear something?
    I tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn’t. I looked at the clock and it said five a.m. so I decided to get up.
    I decided to make breakfast for everyone. I knew it was early but I didn’t feel like reading. I was really good at making scrambled eggs and toast, they really smelled good.
    After the eggs were finished, I put them in a large serving bowl. I set the table for five. I put the scrambled eggs in the middle of the table. I went back and buttered the toast. I had eight pieces of toast, I figured that should be enough.
    I poured five glasses of orange juice and five glasses of milk. This was going to be a healthy meal.
    After I put a napkin next to each plate, I went to wake up the gang.
    I knocked lightly on my parents’ door my dad was a light sleeper.
    “Who is it?” he called.
    “ It’s Whitney, I made breakfast.”
    My mom said something quietly to my dad.
    He called out, “We will be right there.”
    I then went and woke up Jordan and Jacob. They were
