Authors notes: helloooo! Not sure about this story, I only really write Jecker… Oh well. By the way, this is what I sit and think about in global studies… I wish this was real.
It was 10 o'clock at night and Jess was just about to go to sleep. It had been a really long day and all she wanted to do was crawl into bed and sleep for a year. Suddenly she heard a knock on the door, so she reluctantly opened it to see a young girl dripping wet staring up at her with big, tear filled, blue eyes. The girl expected to be questioned and then helped on her way, but instead she was being rushed inside, wrapped in a towel and sat on the sofa with a bowl of mint ice-cream. Then came the questions.
"My name's Jess, what's your name and why are you here." Jess said calmingly.
"I ran away from home, I was hoping to find my uncle. Someone said that you knew him and that you could help me and… and…" The girl almost started crying again but Jess quickly said something that stopped her.
"You ran away from home?"
"Well kind of…" she started, looking at the floor "It's not really home, I… I… I ran away from an orphanage. I still write to him loads and we keep in touch other ways too, but he doesn't know about me being set to the orphanage yet, ever though it was years ago… he was in Afghanistan at the time."
"Oh so your uncle is probably one of the soldiers at where I work" Jess said and the girl nodded. Jess was thinking about starting now, but it was half past 10 already. Jess thought that since Abby and Connor don't live there any more the girl could stay with her the night and she could take her into work tomorrow. "I'll go set up a spare room, yeah, and you can stay here for the night, we will find your uncle tomorrow."
Jess set up the room and showed the girl the way. Before she walked through the door she turned round and said "My name's Kira by the way. Kira Becker." With that she turned and walked into the room leaving a very stunned Jess behind her.
Next chapter will be longer I promise and it will have Becker in.
