A few days after the kiss, however, Kyra was not at school. Or the day after that. And girls I had never seen before came up to me and asked me where she was and gave me dirty looks when I said I honestly didn't know. Teachers skipped over her name in roll. A small little formality, but definitely enough to notice. I think some students were asking where she was, and why she wasn't at school. I didn't understand it. The both of us had just talked for two hours on the phone the last Sunday night, and then on Monday, it was as if she vanished. I was starting to get worried, and I asked my teachers where she was. Mr. Warburton, who I suspected knew a little of our relationship, just nodded sadly at me and sighed. Home. I checked IM, phone messages, mail, e-mail, anything, but nothing came up. It wasn't until 11:43:12 that night that I learned her father had died. 2008-03-23T23:41:26Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/25100 <p>good job.<br />sequel ?</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/25100?basename=51069 2008-03-23T23:41:26Z Brandiee;*<3 http://ficlets.com/authors/tib_tib <p>I thought she herself was sick, but I could see the shadow of death hanging about somewhere. I thought you were going to kill the love interest off. I have troubles with romance&#8230;making it work&#8230;I typically end by killing someone, having a huge fight followed by time and sand, or a peaceful friendship. I&#8217;m intrigued by where you&#8217;ll take this.<br />LoA</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/25100?basename=50329 2008-03-20T22:12:47Z Storykeeper of Fae http://ficlets.com/authors/smile <p>Me neither, how sad!</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/25100?basename=50318 2008-03-20T21:25:11Z Lone Writer http://ficlets.com/authors/solopen <p>Oh my gosh!
