This is unusual because Ellie always answers her phone. Lexie went on to tell the Tarn family that she has been trying to reach her as well. She said that Ellie went home two days ago and hasn’t heard a word since. Immediately, the Tarn’s and Lexie’s family called the police and they sent out a missing report. While police were on the scene, it was getting late. Lexie was in her bedroom laying with her windows down, curtains closed, and lights all off. When she rolled over in her bed, there was a silhouette of Ellie Tarn. Lexie got up panicking, thinking “Oh my God, and I high?” Lexie rubbed her face saying this is just a dream, but it wasn’t. Ellie was there that night questioning why did Lexie murder her. Lexie couldn 't sleep with the fact that Ellie was with her all night haunting her and questioning why it was her that was murdered. The next morning Lexie felt as if she was a completely different person. Around lunch time, she was going with her family to the scene that the police had found some serious clues which dealt with a murder. All of the first responders were at the scene. Policemen were questioning random people that walk through this area. Crime scene tape was all around the bushes that Lexie had placed the body.

The close attachment one feels when entering a close social relationship is based on the biological neural and chemical components that trigger these feelings we have on a psychological level. Interestingly enough rats experience this phenomenon as well.…
