Chapter 2:Who we used to be...

By:fire demoness

Kaen opened the front door with a loud creak.

"Mom? Dad? Anyone home?"

As she stepped gingerly inside the cold empty room, bringing inside with her the dropped around and abused bag of groceries. Her brown, snow- encased, and worn boots tredded on the welcome mat. She set the groceries down on the floor gently and walked inside the still house.

**crinkle**

Kaen almost had a heart attack. Under her foot was a scrap of paper. After waiting a few minutes for her heart rate to go back to normal, she picked it up and read it. There was a thud and all that could be seen was an unconsious body and a scrap of paper by her.

(the paper, italics)

" Kaen,

I'll keep this to the point. I cannot live with your father anymore. He tried to sell you to a brothel and I refused. Now I have run away and will never go back to that hearless bastard. I'll come and get you in 2 months time. Im sorry I cant take you with me. I have to be sure I can provide for you and not be found by him. For now, my sister will come and get you. At least I hope she will. If not, then I trust you to have survial skills. I have to go. He wont let me divorce him and I cant stand for you to be with him alone. I can protect you some if im there, but now, you have to leave. Go to your aunts house. Anyplace. I'll know. Please don't judge me dear, I love you. I hope someday you shall know just how much..."

~Your loving mother"

**someplace...different**

**in first person view**

I walked along the snowy grounds of the park, looking for nothing and just wandering around. My brother was at home, still talking about the "superwoman" that had saved him. Kaen. I wonder if she does remember me. We're not the same anymore. Not who we used to be. But the big question is...

Does she remember me?

I would tell her. Damn that old hag. Some rule about not telling the others. I walked to the end of a fence. The end of the park. Might as well go home now.

I walked off into the night, darkness surrounding me as it had so many times in the past. Only that time, it was around my heart too...

TBC?

Mann. I don't have a lotta reviews for this, however, since I DO update by reviews, thanks to those that DID review!
