Excerpt
Donnie
could hear the tears behind his words.
“There’s
something wrong. I can feel it. She’s not acting right.”
“She
locked herself in her room and won’t come out. Camille is crying
and I don’t know what to do,” Johan said.
“I’ll
come back right away,” Donnie said and hung up the phone. Donnie
sped on his way back, luckily avoiding the attention of any police
officers and arrived within five minutes. Johan was waiting for him
at the door.
“Where
is she?” Donnie asked.
“Still
in her room,” Johan replied. Donnie went upstairs while Johan tried
to console Camille. He reached the door and knocked. There was no
response.
“Abbie,
it’s Donnie. Please open up baby. I know something is wrong. Let me
help you,” Donnie pleaded, and again there absolutely was no
answer. He placed his ear to the door and heard nothing on the other
side. He knocked a lot louder, just in case she was listening to
music and wearing earphones, still, no answer. Donnie tried the
doorknob. Unlike what Johan had said, the door was unlocked. Donnie
opened the door and screamed. Johan and Camille were surprised by
Donnie’s cries and ran upstairs as fast as they could. When they
got to Abbie’s room, they found Donnie trying to hold up Abbie’s
limp body.
“Help
me!” Donnie cried out. Camille fainted and hit the floor hard.
Johan ran over to Donnie and Abbie. She had strung a rope from the
high rafters in her room and hung herself. Her feet were nearly six
feet off the ground, and Donnie was not tall enough to adequately
lift her high enough to relieve the pressure on her neck. Johan being
a foot taller was able to lift her easily.
“Get
the ladder! I have her!” Johan yelled. Donnie ran and retrieved the
ladder and a saw from the basement. He dialed nine-one-one as he ran
down the stairs and help was on the way. When he got back to the
room, Johan was on the verge of panic.
“Hurry,
she’s so cold!” Johan yelled. Donnie climbed up the ladder and
cut Abbie down. Johan laid her on the bed and loosened the rope
around her neck. Donnie started performing CPR, but it was too late.
Donnie wailed endlessly as the grim reality hit him. Abbie was dead.

R.M. Garcia
I was considered a dreamer by all of my teachers, but I never thought that label was a bad thing. I was initially very shy until I got older and stopped caring about others' opinions of me. I realized that I was, who I was, and you either liked me or you didn't; simple as that.
I have been called weird, quirky, funny and trustworthy, all titles I hold dear. I wrote the short story of The Foundlings when I was still in high school and it was not until much later that I fully developed it into a book. Back in the day, I also wrote poetry, but story telling became my true love.
After high school, I moved to Florida and went to college. I dabbled in various professions over the next several years. I worked in jobs such as Hotel Manager, Accountant, Insurance Agent, Travel Agent, Customer Service Rep, Draftsman, and even a Fry Cook.
When I started on the book, I realized that this was my passion, what I was ultimately meant to do. I loved writing The Foundlings and even if it does not become a best seller, I will continue to write. Publishing my first book led to me meeting my wonderful wife. So God willing and with the help of my fans, The Foundlings will make a mark in the literary world. Thank you for reading about me.
