"Elain, Elain! Come here you missed the notes we took today. ELAIN!!!" She turns around and realizes, she is alone in the classroom. Then she stutters, Breathes in slowly, "H-have I always been alone?" She starts crying and runs to the bathroom. She looks in the mirror and has no face. She thinks to herself, "Is this a dream? Am I really all alone?" She looked around and called people's names. But no one was there... Elain started making people up in her mind to fill the blanks of emptiness. She stays home alone, a never ending misery. She has no one but herself.
While she is home she gets an idea, "I'll make my own family!" Not to long after she made blueprints of robots and real corpses. She makes the robot first but it had no emotions. It did not care for her and it did not take care for her. She went to the cemetery and got bodies of men most were muscular and others were not. She got parts of them to make everything similar. The whole body was muscular from sharp jaw to running feet. He was handsome once she finished, but he still was not alive... she put all electricity in the man to make him come alive like a zombie or Franklin stein. After that, electricity went into his body. He started to twitch, she smiled and said to herself, "This is it, I will finally not be alone. I won't do things on my own and someone will love me and I will love them. I don't need to pretend people are here anymore... I'm not alone." She smiled more and got very happy inside.
Then she opened her eyes, the sun shining down on her fragile beautiful face, the loud sound of her brothers music, and the wonderful smell of her mother's Saturday breakfast cooking. She was glad it was only a dream. She got up out of her bed and put on her favorite sandals they were red, her favorite color. She walks to the bathroom and looked in the mirror faintly and turned on the water. She splash's her face with cold clear water and rubs her eyes. She grazes her face in the mirror and starts crying. She starts to feel lonely like in her dream. She then whips her tears and the water off her face with the towel behind her. Then she sighs, "DILL can you lower that my head hurts!" Her brother lowers his music and calls his girlfriend. Elain gets her way down stairs and walks to the kitchen fast and happily. "Wow mom that smells so good what are you making?" Elain says so excited. "I'm making eggs with beans and cheese with toast and pancakes." Her mother replied. "Great! Sounds goooood." Elain says more excited. Her mother was always the first one to wake up. Not after to long Elain turned 16 and her mother was gone.
