When I was seven, an earthquake hit while my sister Edith and I were playing hide-and-seek. My parents rescued me first, but the rescue team searched day and night for three days and still couldn't find Edith anywhere. With red, teary eyes, my parents pressed me for answers, but I just stood there, frozen and lost, whispering, "I don't know... I don't know where Edith is hiding..." After that day, my parents, who had always spoiled me like their little princess, never smiled at me again. This time, my parents were going to visit Edith's grave. When I said I wanted to go as well, my mom completely lost it. She screamed at me, "Get lost! If you hadn't wanted to play hide-and-seek, Edith would've still been alive. It's your fault she's dead! "If you love hiding so much, then get in there!" She was screaming at the top of her lungs as she forcefully shoved me into the suitcase. But she forgot that it was a password-locked suitcase. Once it locked automatically, I couldn't open it no matter what I did.
