Disclamer: We will never own RENT, no matter how much we want it...
Chapter 2: New Bohemians?
"Where the hell are we?"
"New York City… where else?"
"I got that part from the multiple sky scrapers. I meant where exactly are we?"
"Alphabet City, NYC. This is our new home. What do ya think?"
"Um… it's ok."
"Ok? What do you mean it's just ok! It's the best!"
"You do know we are standing on the sidewalk looking at the door of a dilapidated old building with no signs of life around us, save for the cars which are a block away?"
"Hey! Cut me some slack! It was the best I could find considering our parents cut off all our funds once we told them we were dropping out of college."
"I still say we should turn around and go back. It is only the middle of the summer, I'm sure they will still have our spots open. Plus, I don't want to leave my parents alone since my sisters are no help at all."
"Sure Kayla. Whatever you say."
"It's true! You know what my sisters are like. They are horrible little witches who don't care about anybody bout themselves. Maia! You remember the time they came into my room in the middle of the night with shaving cream and honey during a sleepover? Yeah, I swear the honey is still in the quilts."
"Calm Kay. I remember. I was the one who had to listen to this rant every day since we drove up and for the past 10 years, so I think I have it memorized by now."
"Sorry Maia. It's just I don't trust my sisters not to do something horrible so I will have to take care of them… I will put them in an orphanage if I have to, just to get rid of them! They are-"
"Evil little witches, I know."
Anybody watching this scene would have though these girls were crazy. One was almost throwing a temper tantrum in the middle of the street, while the other was staring at a door with peeling paint looking amused. Across the street was a man in his 30s, filming the two girls. He had a sad smile on his face. He stopped filming and put his camera away, looking as if he was going to cross the street but stopped himself at the last moment. Slowly, almost sadly, he turned and walked down the street, away from his past, away from the memories, away from his past life.
This is a intro/filler chapter. Sorry it isn't longer, I just had to end it somewhere without it being superfluous. Please R&R, we like knowing whether a chapter sucks or not.
Peace,
