In the middle of the night I hear a scream, one I'll never forget. As I awake, I wonder. was Lilly having a nightmare? Had Jake watched a scary movie before bed? Did a mysterious noise make Bella wakeup? As these questions ran through my mind, I thought nothing of them. I slowly crept towards jakes room, he had heard the scream too, but was too scared to get out of bed. I told him to go back to bed. That everything was okay. But inside I felt as though I was living a nightmare myself. Then I heard Bella, she was crying, something wasn't right. but Bella was okay. As quiet as I could, I opened Lilly's door. "honey? are you okay?". She didn't answer. Again i asked, "Honey? Are you awake?". As i lifted the sheets...She was gone. Where had my baby girl gone? I ran all over the house. She wasn't anywhere. When I walked by her room again, the window was open. As I looked out the window, I saw Lilly. A man threw her into the trunk of his car, as if she was a rag doll. That was the last time I saw my sweet little girl. My angel. She was only 8, and someone took her away from me, stolen from her own home. I instantly called 911, heartbroken, I tried explaining what had just happened. The police arrived, but there was nothing they could do.
半夜里我听到一声尖叫，那是我永远也忘不了的尖叫声。我醒了，纳闷着到底是谁的叫声。难度是女儿丽丽做噩梦了？还是杰克在睡前有看恐怖片？或者是一些奇怪的声响吵醒了贝拉？随着这些问题闯入我的脑海，我没有想到他们。我轻轻地走到杰克的房间，发现他也听到了尖叫声，但因为太害怕所以不敢从床上下来，我让他继续呆在床上，告诉他什么都会好的。但事实上我也感觉自己像是在做噩梦。随后我听到了贝拉的声音，她被吓哭了，我隐约感到有些不对劲，但贝拉并没事。我放下贝拉，尽可能轻地打开丽丽房间的门"宝贝，你醒了吗？"当我掀开她的床单，她不见了。我的宝贝女儿哪儿去了，我发疯似的跑遍整座房子，都没有她。就当我再次回到她房间时，发现窗户是开着的，我走到窗户向外看，我看到了丽丽，她被一个男人像是仍布偶猫一样扔进了车的后备箱。那是我最后一次见到到我的女儿，我的小天使，她才八岁，而有人把她从我身边夺走了，在她自己的家里被偷走了。当时我立即拨打了911，我心都碎了，我试着解释刚才发生的一切。警察终于来了，但他们也无能为力。

A month after the incident, the doorbell rang. It was christmas eve, so I thought it was just another gift from grandma an grandpa. I read the label. There wasn't a return adress? or any adress? Just a box, with a card. I opened the card to read it. It read "merry christmas, here's your angel back". My heart stopped. Was the card referring to my daughter? I opened the box, in horror, I fell to the floor. They gave me back my daughter...in pieces.
就在这个不幸发生后一个月的某一天，门铃响了。那天刚好是圣诞节，所以我想可能是他们的祖父或祖母又送礼物来了。我看礼物上的标签，上面没有写回寄地址也没有任何其他地址，只是一个盒子和一张卡片。我打开卡片看，上面写着"圣诞节快乐，你的天使回来了."我的心咯噔一下，卡片上提到的是我的女儿吗？我打开盒子一看，瞬间害怕地跌倒在地上。他们确实把我女儿还给我了…--一堆肢体。
