I looked under that missing persons flyer and found two more missing persons flyers‚ Maisy Johnson and David Peterson‚ my siblings. As I was staring at the papers I heard the front door fly open and my mom step into the house. I scrambled to shove the sheets under the bed again and grabbed the purse I had gone in her room to get.
