"Mom?"423Please respect copyright.PENANAqL3UXiT7Dl
"What, dear?"423Please respect copyright.PENANAKKDjkJByVW
"Do we have to watch the news on TV?"423Please respect copyright.PENANAFR1gVUbnEm
"Yes, dear. I want to see if there is something on the news."423Please respect copyright.PENANADrqNfS6vUc
"Like what?"423Please respect copyright.PENANA3uCLo2haZL
"Something you don't need to worry about."423Please respect copyright.PENANABpWNjcYNkC
"Oh, come on. Mom," I moan. "That's not funny."423Please respect copyright.PENANAn3zrggoyiX
"You are seven years old. No."423Please respect copyright.PENANAAz7GDC1Y7K
I moan really loudly.423Please respect copyright.PENANAdxHbptlPK4
"Stop. I can't hear the TV."423Please respect copyright.PENANAr1CzYVE3kM
"Fine." I sigh.423Please respect copyright.PENANA7VYQSiDsvV
Suddenly the news music plays and the news comes on.423Please respect copyright.PENANAm5NFUozliG
"Just yesterday two people were found dead in a building in Whitby, England. One was a woman, the other a man. Both were lying in a pool of blood. The woman ended up being Dr. Zoe Van Helsing. The man's identity we are not sure we should announce to the world. An open casket will be held for Dr. Helsing and the next day she will have a funeral and a burial. The man will just have an open casket and will be put in a tomb in the graveyard of Sighisoara, Transylvania. Here is a picture of Dr. Helsing and the man found."423Please respect copyright.PENANAQqQUArEpaw
I look up right as soon as the pictures pop up and I gasp. I jump up. I pause the TV and run to the kitchen.423Please respect copyright.PENANATIcop1JybI
"Mom! Mom!"423Please respect copyright.PENANAomkFZnqawX
She turns around and looks at me. "What? What is it?"423Please respect copyright.PENANAO0NaLBXr6f
I grab her arm and pull her into the living room. I point at the TV. "Look! Look! It's Count Dracula! That man found with Dr. Helsing is Count Dracula!"423Please respect copyright.PENANAvWHbogKjd7
She sighs. "He's not real."423Please respect copyright.PENANA9za1DRtVM4
"You're not looking!"423Please respect copyright.PENANApbSKytyAVD
She sighs again and looks at the TV. She gasps. "Oh my God. That's not possible."423Please respect copyright.PENANARBNkIVtinI
Suddenly, her phone rings. She answers the phone and puts it on speaker phone. 423Please respect copyright.PENANAchyE8oCrw1
"Yes? Hello?" She walks into the kitchen and sets the phone down on the counter.423Please respect copyright.PENANAdgMKM2OMDM
