RECOVERED MEMORIES

Mia seemed to be in a daze as she just sat quietly in one corner of the living room.

After Stephanie had placed both her hands on her head, she had suddenly had a wave of memory hit her. And then she had remembered everything…

**FLASHBACKS**

It had just been a few days after her father's sudden demise and burial. The Sheriff had taken her in as his daughter, and she was already getting settled with her new family. She had been home, alone and painting in the sitting room. She had her headphone on as she worked, humming along with the music she was listening to.

Suddenly she had heard a faint thud sound, which she figured must have been a pretty loud thud as she had heard it even with the music blasting in her ears. Halting with her paint brush hanging in mid-air, she had turned to the door and almost at the same time she had felt a strong wind blow past her. Seeing that the door which had been locked was now ajar, her eyes and mouth fell wide open.
