''You're unusually quiet today.'' comes the voice of Elizabeth invading my thoughts as all I can do is say. I had almost forgotten that she was seated right next to me. the car ride wasn't supposed to be quiet. it wasn't supposed to be sleeping but a lot of things in mind one of them being her I was going to break the news to Elizabeth that her parents were not at the location that she thought they were in. I hadn't yet gotten over the fact that someone could have such absolute be careless parents. parent that wanted nothing to do with their own daughter.
