After putting all books where they belong, Emily get her coat and her keys and go home but after locking the library for tonight, she hear a loud of a window crashing. She turn to see a bar window broke in pieces, [i][color=a2d39c]Someone throwing something at the window, probably. A bar fight, most likely.[/color][/i] Emily thought to herself. Emily try to ignore the scene from the bar and headed home, Emily think she like to go to that bar sometime. Paradise, she thinks that's bar named, Emily like to go there to, you know, hang out and meet new people but due to her very awkward and shy nature, she doesn't have the strength to go there, and beside she doesn't like beer, it taste terrible for the first time she try to drink it. Emily have made it home.....Ok, it's a Apartment but it still home. She enter her [url=https://www.englishforum.ch/attachments/property-wanted/5811d1228731873-2-room-apartment-zurich-oerlikon-zimmer.jpg]room[/url], put on her pjs and lay in her bed. Before she go to sleep, she check on her phone for news and found one in Gravette and it about the recent murders. Emily parents hear about it and they are extremely worried about her, they call her everytime when another murder happen. Emily told her parents that she ok and everything is fine but in all true, Emily worry herself about the murders, like why are they happen and what the cause of people killing another people? I mean, there got to be a reason, right? [hr] [center][h1][i][color=f26522]Anahi[/color] and [color=f9ad81]Alberto[/color][/i][/h1][/center] Anahi was in some gas store, while Alberto was waiting outside, hoping that his sister won't get caught by the clark. Anahi was only one at the store beside the clark, Anahi take few stacks and few water bottles and stuff them in her backpack, she know that it is wrong to steal but what choice does she have, she have to take care of her brother and keep him alive. after zipping up her backpack, she ahead toward the door "Hey. Stop right there" [i][color=f26522]Crap[/color][/i] Anahi thought, she be caught and she was frozen where she stand next to the door. "I know what you are trying and you think you are smart? Well let me tell you, there in no way you are not stealing anyth-" the clark stop talking and look out of the door window to see Alberto head pop out. the clark sigh "......Ah hell, I didn't...Look, you and I know that stealing is bad but if you need to take care of someone and yourself, well that an't bad at all" the clark said. Anahi sigh in relief, thank god he is not calling the police or worse. The clark handed Anahi five twenty and few coins, Anahi say thanks to the clark and her and her brother walk away from the gas store. Anahi and Alberto have been walking for what feel like hours. [color=f9ad81]"Um...Sis?" [/color]Alberto ask Anahi [color=f9ad81]"Are we going to sleep in some alleyway again?"[/color] Alberto ask [color=f26522]"Yes." [/color]Anahi say with a sigh, they have been on the run for one year for now before running away to Gravette. [color=f9ad81]"Um, I hear about place call the Paradise. Maybe they have some rooms"[/color] [color=f26522]"Yeah but I saw some police drive over there, so no, we are [u]not[/u] going there."[/color] But also because Anahi doesn't trust anyone. [color=f26522]"Probably someone got murder over there." [/color]Anahi say [color=f9ad81]"Don't say stuff like that, sis! Probably someone got really hurt."[/color] Alberto tell Anahi [color=f26522]"Yeah, sure"[/color] Anahi say with a smirk [color=f26522]"Ok there a alleyway over there, Let's go"[/color] Anahi and Alberto walk toward alleyway. Anahi and Alberto pull out sleeping bags from their backpack and slip in to the sleeping bags and watch the stars...There was silence between the two until Alberto broke that silence [color=f9ad81]"Hey, Ana?" [/color][color=f26522]"Hey, Al?"[/color].....There was a small silence for a while [color=f9ad81]".....Do you think we will see our cousins again?" [/color]Anahi froze when he ask that question, what her answer? I mean, she doesn't know if her young cousins are still alive and all she know that their older cousins are dead along with their parents, their aunts, their uncles-.....When Anahi think about her and Alberto uncles, she think about her uncle J, she hated him since after what he did on at night, she should kill him where he stand if he was here right now. Alberto is still waiting for her answer, Anahi sigh, she have to tell him, tell him that his cousins are most liking dead. She turn on to her belly and look at him in the eyes, Alberto still have those young eyes of his, his eyes still have that spark of hope which Anahi have not that spark in her eyes anymore. Anahi takes a deep breath and say [color=f26522]"Yes, of course we will see them again." [/color]Alberto smile warmly to that answer, [color=f9ad81]"Thanks Sis, I hope we meet them soon, good night"[/color] and with that, Alberto went to sleep. Anahi say good night as well but instead, she look at the stars, hoping to see her cousins again as well.
