Chapter 4 – Many Questions, No Answers
Dan's POV
I was sitting on the couch, watching TV. ´Where is Alice? She should have been home by now. I hope nothing happened.´ I was getting worried. Shop wasn't that far from the house.
Then I heard someone knocking. I opened the door. ˝Shun?˝
˝Hey, Dan!˝ Shun smiled.
˝Hey, man! What brings you here?˝ Then I saw worried expretion on his face. ˝Is something wrong?˝ I asked.
˝Nothing. Just…I waned to check up, if Alice came back home…˝ He wanted to check is she was home? Was he with her? I was suddenly got a weird feeling like something happened.
˝Wait! You were with her?˝
˝Yeah, and then I had to leave. I had something to take care of. I just wanted to make sure that she came back home, that's all.˝ Shun told me. I froze. She should have been home by now already. Something must have happened to her!
˝But, she's not home yet!˝ I snapped.
˝What!? It's been 15 minutes since I left the shop! You don't think…something bad happened to her?˝ Shun was getting even more worried by the second, as well as me.
˝Well we better go look for her!˝ I said rushing out and locking the door.
Normal POV
Dan and Shun were just on their way to look for Alice when they saw her coming towards the house.
They ran over to her.
˝Alice! Hey, Alice!˝
˝Uh…oh, hi guys.˝ She was still little shocked from what just happened to her in that ally few minutes ago. They both saw something was wrong.
˝Are you okay, Alice?˝ Dan asked looking at her.
˝I'm…I'm fine.˝ She smiled.
˝Where were you?˝ Shun asked.
˝I was in the shop. You were with me. What's with all the questions you two?˝ Alice asked them.
˝I came to Dan's house to check if you came back. And you still didn't. It passed 15 minutes since I left. And shop isn't that far away.˝ Shun pointed out.
´Should I tell them?´ Alice wondered. She didn't know what to do. To tell them? Or not?
˝Alice?˝
˝Um…well…I…umm…there was little girl and her cat couldn't get of the tree so I…helped her.˝ Alice lied. ´I can't tell them. They'd worry to much.´
´Little girl's cat stuck on the tree, huh? She's obviously lying. She was never got at it, anyway. Why would she lie? What happened?´ Dan was now sure something was wrong. He looked at her and he could see she was scared.
Shun's POV
˝Um…well…I…umm…there was little girl and her cat couldn't get of the tree so I…helped her.˝ Alice said.
I don't know her for very long, but could tell she was lying. And I Dan did too. I don't understand why, but maybe she'll tell us when she wanted to.
˝It's nice of you te do such a nice thing for that little girl.˝ I smiled at her.
˝Yeah.˝ Dan smiled too. ˝We better go inside.˝ Dan said.
˝Okay. Well I gotta go home you two. I'll see you later.˝ I waved at them.
˝Bye Shun.˝
˝Bye.˝
Both of them waved back. I entered the house and went upstairs to my room. For some reason I couldn't get Alice out of my head.
Her eyes, her hair, her voice, her smile…
She is so nice and kind. Such a good person.
I don't know much about her or her past, but I know one thing…I want to get to know her.
Somewhere else…
In an old abandon house.˝We're back!˝ Shadow yelled out entering into the house followed by Ace.
˝Took you long enough.˝ Blue haired woman hissed.
˝We would have been done sooner is SOMEONE didn't try to hit on a girl and treathend her.˝ Ace said leaning against the wall.
˝What happened?˝ A boy with light green hair asked.
˝I wasn't hitting on her you idiot! I was trying to get the money! I mean that is our job!˝ Shadow said turning to Ace who looked mad.
˝Our targets are rich men! Not teenage girls!˝ Ace snapped.
˝Oh, do you maybe know that girl? Oh, little Ace is in love…˝ Shadow chuckled.
˝You…!˝ Ace was about to punch Shadow when Hydron steeped in.
˝Enoug! Both of you!˝ He walked towards them. ˝Shadow, you know what we agreed on. Only to steal from rich! So no more attacking teenage girls or kids! You got it!?˝ Hydron turned to Shadow.
˝Yes, boss.˝ Shadow said.
˝And you Ace, if you don't want your friends to get hurt you better do as we say. Am I clear!?˝ Then he turned to Ace.
˝Yes.˝ Ace said.
˝Good.˝ Hydrond turned and walked away.
In Kuso's hose…
Alice was in her room lying on the bed. Then she heard someone knocking.
˝Alice? Can I come in?˝ Dan asked.
˝Yes.˝ Alice answered. As he came in she sat up. ˝Do you need anything?˝ She looked at him.
˝Alice…what happened?˝ He asked.
˝What do you mean?˝
˝On the way home from the shop. Something happened, didn't it?˝
She lowered her head.
˝Alice, answer me!˝ Dan demanded.
˝Nothing happened!˝ She said. ˝Why are you so sure something happened?˝
˝I know you, Alice. I know that you don't like to lie. I know when something's wrong or when something's bothering you. I know when you're lying and I know you were never good at lying. So spill it out,Alice! What happened!?˝ Dan asked again raising her voice.
She lowered her head, her eyes started to fill up with tears. ˝I'm sorry…Dan…˝
˝Sorry for what?˝ Dan asked, he was getting even more worried now.
˝I'm sorry…I…can't tell you.˝
