So Much for my Happy Ending
Recap
"Can't I just stay here and watch my show," Amane wined at her brother. "You'll only be gone for a couple of minutes."
This was true, the grocery store was right across the street. Ryou was hungry for dinner and let it get the best of him as he left Amane home alone.
A minute after Ryou had left the door of the apartment began making sounds and the door opened.
"Ryou?" Amane cried as a commercial came on. She heard foot steps, but they were too thunderous to be Ryou's. Chills ran up her spine and she turned off the TV and sunk down on the couch.
Who ever it was entered the room where Amane was and whispered in a low, raspy voice, "Ryou…"
Amane did not recognize this voice, nor did she like it. Her arms were shaking as she surveyed the area for a phone. Ryou had always told her to call 911 incase he was not their in an emergency. She saw the cordless phone on the chair next to her. Her hand reached out to pick it up when a voice stopped her.
"Ryou!" the voice shouted again. He was now in the kitchen, and of all things he was going through their fridge.
"What does he want? Where's Ryou!" Amane thought over and over again as all her fears came true.
"Guess the little bastard ain't home," he chuckled as he walked into the living room. His footsteps were loud and intimidating. Amane put her hand over her mouth to prevent her screaming in terror. She wanted him to leave, but was too defenseless to even move.
She curled into a ball and sucking her thumb. Above her, there was breathing. She sat their for awhile waiting for him to leave. After what seemed like a lifetime she looked up and was face to face with the man who had broken into her home.
Meanwhile at the store, Ryou was having some difficulty in the frozen foods section. He couldn't pick which pizza or dinner he wanted. Ryou always felt terrible that he and Amane seemed to eat nothing but unhealthy food everyday. Upon realization that he was even worse leaving her home alone for ten minutes now, Ryou had to make a quick choice. Blindly, he reached his hand into the coldness and pulled out a package of Mac n' Cheese.
"Amane, I'm home," Ryou said as he took off his shoes and laid his frozen package on the kitchen counter. Silence crept through the whole house. "Amane!" Ryou shouted as he furiously began running around the house in search of her.
Thoughts, stories, and excuses flooded Ryou's head as to where she would be. Sadly, she was not in the apartment. Ryou picked up his phone and dialed 911. In a short matter of time, police where scrutinizing his home.
"So let me get this straight, you left your mentally challenged sister home alone for ten minutes as you ran to the store to buy food," the cop told Ryou as he read the notes he had taken.
"True, but you don't have to make me sound so evil," Ryou said as he put his head down in shame for what he had done. He would never forgive himself for anything that happened to her.
"We found this," a fellow cop said to the man speaking to Ryou. The cop held up a plastic bag with cans of beer in them.
"You drink?" the man said to Ryou as he poised his pen to write any comment or movement he would make.
"Hardly sir, why is that such a concern," Ryou said as he started to breathe hard. He knew he was innocent, he was at the store.
"Sir, we're going to have to arrest you," the man said as he put his note pad away and a cop out a pair of handcuffs around his arms.
"That hurts," Ryou said as he tried to move his arms so they were in his vision. "I'm innocent! I just want my sister back and safe."
"Alert the news, we have quite an interesting case here," the man said as Ryou was escorted by two cops into the back of their police truck.
"Anything to say for yourself?" the cop in the front asked Ryou.
"I'm innocent," Ryou pleaded. The cop just laughed and they drove away.
