The Beginning

Slight crunching of snow between cement and rubber rings in my ears. My breath comes out in white huffs as I walk through the bustling streets of Los Angeles. Fitting in has always been fairly easy, but locating the safe house is always difficult. I wonder, if maybe my director chooses weird places for safe houses on purpose. When I've reached a park, I know I've missed the safe house.

"Excuse me, is your name..."

I turn around to find a girl in her early twenties, if that. She's uncertain about saying the name.

She whispers the next word, "Tern?"

I arch an eyebrow at her, which she takes as confirmation, "Thank goodness. I'm Mina, the safe house owner."

Heheeeeeeeeee new story :) Comments pwease :)))
