A/N: Just to say, in case you didn't know, I am doing a sequel- Rising From The Ashes and the first chapter is out now. Here's a preview.

"Uh. I was. I was. Won-wondering if." Oh come on! "I was wondering if you could tell me some stuff about Mom?" He looks at me with an expression I can't read but I plough on. "Like, where she lives? I want to go see her." It comes bursting out of me.

"Sash, that's not possible."

"Why not? I'm fourteen years old tomorrow and I still have never met my mom even though I could of."

"I don't want you to get hurt."

"Well if you won't help then I'll do some of my own research!"

I make my way outside carefully avoiding the 'security' cameras. Finally (shivering in my pyjamas and slippers) I am outside the window of Dad's office (which he conveniently forgot to lock and didn't completely close either)! I push it upwards and seeing as I'm so small I can easily fit through. I see no cameras scanning this room however it is filled to bursting with computers and desks. Paper with scribbles on it all over the floor. My eyes widen as I look at one of the computers. The screen is divided into four and it shows different areas of a house. One is a bedroom and in that one, I can make out the figure of- my mom! She's different obviously, much older. But it's clear to see that it's really her!

Thanks for reading All The Things I Lost and I hope you enjoy the sequel xx
