The Most Important Day of My Life
The Day that Changed my Life
There I was having an ordinary day, a barbecue with my friends where all went as normal and then I get a call from my daughter, I was so happy as she hadn’t called me in over 6 weeks but that happiness was only temporary. She wanted to have lunch with me at that afternoon so I abandoned my friends and the barbecue just for her. While there our conversation stays on only one topic, me, until she wants the favour that I regret giving- my permission to go to Kenya for some charity work.
In hope of retrieving her trust, I agree to such thing as I thought she would be safe. I warned her about the danger of the world but I knew she didn’t pay attention. I went home worried and panicking, I couldn’t sleep or concentrate on anything else, I just waited for her call but when it came it wasn’t a good one. Kidnappers called with a voice so dark and horrifying that my heart almost stopped. Their words were “She is gone forever”, I cried and cried…
When I finally got full of anger, I got on the first plane to Kenya looked for someone who could help me, get a gun and get my daughter back. Then I found Rebecca, she told me that these kidnappers have been working for 3 months kidnapping innocent teens from the airport and taking them to the Old Stadium to auction

    “It’s like a crater, a hole where something happened” (Donoghue 321). Yet, this crater is flooded with so much more than the dust that provides a thin sheet of remembrance between the event in time and reality. It symbolizes not only the loss of innocence, but also the stripping away of freedom, both intellectually and physiologically, leaving the victim with a deluge of emotional struggles as he or he begins their journey towards a sense of normalcy. Unfortunately, this brutal reality is apparent for every single kidnapping victim.…

    Four years ago, on a normal Thursday school night, I was sitting in my room doing my homework and my aunt came bursting into the door saying my brother was kidnapped. I did not want to believe what I heard and kept asking her to repeat herself. I ran outside of the house and screamed because my emotional pain became so hard that my stomach felt like it was tied in strong ropes and I was ripping apart, I was devastated because my only brother was gone, I didn’t know if I would ever see him again, I did not even have a chance to say goodbye. I was angry at myself, at the people that took him. Life seemed impossible to live during the days he was kidnapped. My family finally came up with the ransom the kidnapers were asking for and through a miracle…

    She was a cute little six year old with blonde hair and freckles on her cheeks. I’ve stared at her picture so much that I have memorized every detail. She went missing in 2008, seven long years and every day since I have racked my brain looking for more details to help us find the little girl. The FBI decided to mark it a cold case after two years and nothing had lead us to her yet. I wanted to keep fighting and to look through every inch of this cruel world to bring Elizabeth back home to her parents. She would be thirteen by now, if she were still alive. The stats say that 78% of children that are abducted are murdered within the first twenty-four hours. I have always hoped that little Elizabeth was still alive and well out there. Maybe I’m just…

    Then sometime had elapse but it hadn’t past more than two hours. When suddenly, we noticed that there was a lot of border patrols passing by. One by one they passed through not stopping until they got to where they were going. The group of women had already left to the next stop we didn’t know where exactly was that other stop, so we went outside to go check what was going on but mainly to check if they hadn’t been caught. My heart shatter into pieces when as the moment we stepped out we saw the three women being taken by the border patrol. They had them sitting down on the floor with hands behind their back. All the hopes and relief I had seen when they left was all gone once again. They went back to being afraid, afraid of not knowing what would their future hold, afraid of not being capable to supplying their families. I quickly remember that one of them had a child that was only four years old, but not only that but also that they had worked a lot to be able and gather some money to be able to come however they could. I wanted to do something, try to protect them, try to help them, try to show that they had a reason for why they had chosen that option, but I couldn’t…

    “Your mom and I have been thinking, and, uh. We have decided that we want you to go on a little adeventure, okay?” He was talking to me as if I was a little child, as if I did not understand the meaning of his words. “We have the money and we are going to pay a very decent man.

    I was forty-one weeks and one day pregnant, lying in an uncomfortable hospital bed, wearing a hideous pink gown, and counting the minutes until my next contraction. Apparently, you were very comfortable in my tummy because there was no sign of you making your appearance any time soon. I was having plenty of contractions but was not dilating; our doctor was looking for a count of at least 60 on the room monitor, but I was only in the mid-20s. Before long she ordered that Pitocin be administered to induce productive labor. It seemed to work-- after only twenty minutes, my contractions went from the twenties to the eighties and continued to increase after that. A few more long hours passed.…

    Saturday, April 3, 1990, became a day that I could never forget. After a long night’s sleep, I started the day with a smile on my face. On that day, I planned to be going on a simple bike ride with a friend. First, after I awoke, I was to call my friend and plan the ride. My friend and I had planned the bike ride to a place in town that we had never seen. Quicker than ever he arrived at my house. Upon arrival, we took two Gatorades and headed off on our way. While riding we saw a bike ramp that we had never before seen. The ramp screamed out with color, and that feature made it unusual. The ramp had pictures of animals drawn on it. We then both challenged eachother to go off the ramp. Agreeing to go off the ramp at the same time, we headed for the ramp at full speed. As we gained speed, we noticed a large swirling mass of light on the ramp. Trying to stop, we were thrown from our bikes into the mass of light. Next, we awoke from our fall to notice that we warped into a weird dimension that was dominated by animals and humans were the animals’ slaves and pets. We realized that if we did not turn around and leave, we would be trapped. As we turned my friend noticed the porthole of light closing. Finally, we returned through the porthole just in time before it had closed. Just as we entered the real world I heard a loud buzzing sound. Lastly, I realized it was all just a dream, but it all felt too real to…
