Chapter 1 - Oak Autumn

"Hey ma! I came back from school. It was a great day",said Oak as she entered the house. Oak hid all her pain and went to her room with a smile. Alyssa Autumn didn't have any idea what her daughter has been going through. But she was confident that Oak is a strong girl who can stand up for herself even when her mom is gone. Oak's parents never told her that Alyssa has brain tumor and she has been given a life expectancy. Everything was quiet in the Autumn house until one day Oak stumbled upon some medical documents. She couldn't stop sobbing as she read her mother's reports. It was the black day for the family. Hisa Autumn tried to put off the gloomy mood. But nothing changed for days.

Three of them started sharing the days together and did all the fun stuff they always did. The month had almost ended and time had come for Alyssa to say goodbye to her family. And then in a flash she was gone. Oak tried to appear strong but in reality she was crumbling inside. Another month had passed without her mom and she remembered her mom telling her that she left something for Oak in her secret closet. Oak opened the drawer, "A novel?huh. I wonder what kind of novel it is that mom called it extremely valuable"."Oak come down here right now i have someone you need to meet!". "Okay Pa! I'm coming down".
