Chapter 1

LET'S GET STARTED

MY NAME IS LIVANA BERK, PEOPLE CALL ME LIV. I LIVE IN NEWARK, NEW JERSEY. UNLIKE MOST PEOPLE I LIVE IN A JOINT FAMILY, PATERNAL SIDE.

INTRODUCTION:

STARTING WITH MY AUNT NATASHA. HER HUSBAND UNCLE AUSTIN LIVES IN EUROPE. SHE'S GOT, TWO DAUGHTERS SHAWNA THE MATHEMATICS GENIUS, AND NINA THE I AM SILENT( FROM OUTSIDE).

THEN COMES MY WORLD MY MOM AUDREY AND MY DAD RICK.

WE ARE TWO SISTERS JENNIFER AND I. WE ARE CLOSE BUT WE FIGHT ALOT LIKE REALLY REALLY A LOT.

LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST MY FAVOURITE UNCLE HOLLAND AND AUNT ZOEY ( EVERYONE IS GOOD BUT HER'S OUR FAVOURITE ).

YOU CAN IMAGINE THERE FAMILY AS THE WEASLY FAMILY FROM HARRY POTTER JUST WITH A BROTHER AFTER GINNY. FIRST IS ZAC, THEN THE TWINS DANIEL AND DANISH, THEN FAIRY FAITH LAST BUT WHO WILL NEVER CONSIDER HIMSELF LEAST AIDEN. THE ONLY PROBLEM WHY HE DOESN'T VISITS US OFTEN IS THAT HE LIVES IN AUSTRALIA.

NOW THE ACTUAL STORY MY SISTER JENNIFER WANTED TO STUDY SOMEWHERE ELSE THAN NEWARK SO SHE DECIDED TO GO TO MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA. AND THE ONLY REASON WHY SHE WAS ALLOWED TO WAS UNCLE HOLLAND. YOU CAN IMAGINE MY FAMILY AS THE HONEST, GRACEFUL, KIND AND LOYEL ONES SINCE FOREVER. THAT DOESN'T SOUNDS LIKE A PROBLEM DOES IT? THE ACTUAL PROBLEM IS JENNIFER WANTS HER APARTMENT RATHER THAN LIVING WITH UNCLE HOLLAND AND AUNT ZOEY. REASON: SHE DIDN'T WANTED TO BE A BURDEN ON THEM. THEN WAS THE WAR OF APARTMENT AT MY HOME PEOPLE DEBATING AND CHAOS. BUT AT LAST JENNIFER WON! YAY!.

NOW COMING TO ME I AM A LIVELY AND PERKY LITTLE ONE WHO TALKS ALOT AND IS A TOMBOY EVERYONE LOVES ME. I AM NOT SAYING BUT EVERYONE DOES. I HAVE ALOT OF FRIENDS. I AM A BOOK WORM. I READ BOOKS I WRITE BOOK I LOVE BOOKS. AND I HATE LOVE STORIES I WANT ACTION AND ADVENTURE. MY COUSINS CALL ME A MOOD MAKER. TEACHERS, NEIGHBOURS, PARENTS ALL LOVE ME. I AM A BRIGHT STUDENT AT SCHOOL ALWAYS ON THE TOP TEN LIST BUT NEVER THE FIRST RANKER, MORE LIKE SECOND OR THIRD. ALL THE STUDENTS KNOW ME EVEN IF I DON'T KNOW THEM. I TALK TO TEACHERS LIKE THEY ARE MY FRIENDS. YOU CAN CALL ME AN INTRO-EXTROVERT.

SO COMES THE DAY WHEN MY MOM WAS DROPPING ME SCHOOL, I HAD BEEN TRYING TO CALL JENNIFER SINCE LIKE CENTURIES. BUT SHE IS SO BUSY THAT SHE WOULDN'T ANSWER.

"DID SHE ANSWER?" MY MOM  INQUIRED. "NO" I REPLIED WITH A FROWN. "SURELY SHE HAS FORGOTTEN US, LET HER CALL I WILL SEE WHAT TOOK HER SO LONG" I GOT OUT THE CAR. "LIV!" MY MOM CALLED.

"YES MOM"

"I AND YOUR FARTHER HAVE SOME WORK TO DO WE WOULDN'T BE AT HOME TONIGHT. SO BEHAVE WELL." SHE INSTRUCTED.

"OKAY" I WENT INSIDE MY SAME NOT SO OLD SCHOOL WITH A HELL OF NOISE. AS I SAT ON MY BENCH "LIV!!" I HEARD MY NAME IT WAS NONE OTHER THAN NICOLE MY BEST FRIEND SINCE THE SEVENTH GRAD ''GUESS WHAT HAPPEND''SHE WAS HARDLY BREATHING ''WHAT'' I INQUIRED. SHE STARTED TO TELL HER STORY, ANN WAS SITTING BESIDE HER. WE WERE BUSY TALKING THEN MY SIGHT WENT ON A PALE BOY WITH DIRTY BLOND HAIR AND BLACK EYES."WHO'S HE?" I ASKED NICOLE. "THAT'S ROMAN DENMARK HE'S THE NEW EXCHANGE STUDENT. EVERYONE LOVES HIM SO FAR BUT HE HAS SHOWN NO INTEREST IN ANYONE LIKE I CARE YOU KNOW" NICOLE GRINED. "YEAH.." I RAISED MY EYEBROW, JUST TURNED BACK AND SAW HIM WHO WAS SITTING BESIDE JHON AND PAUL.

IN THE BREAK TIME I RECEIVED JENNIFER'S CALL.

"SO FINALLY, YOU CAME TO KNOW YOU HAVE A FAMILY" SHE DIDN'T RESPOND "JEN??" I CALLED. "LIV CAN I TALK TO AUDREY" IT WAS UNCLE HOLLAND. "WHAT'S WRONG. TELL ME" I SAID WITH MY VOICE SHAKING.

AS PER UNCLE HOLLAND JENNIFER WAS FOUND DEAD IN HER APARTMENT.
