Chapter Two: Just like me.
"I was only fourteen when it happened three years ago." I started.
Flashback
"They slaughtered my whole village, house by house just burning. I stood outside watching them gather all of the females that were between 10 and14 and killing everyone else. My mother and father grabbed me and another young boy and we escaped. We hid in different places every other night. When we finally thought we were safe... I asked my mother questions that have
been plaguing me
"Why?" I asked then yelled. "Why are all our family and friends died? Why don't we have a home anymore?" I cried into my mother.
"Honey, there's something we need to tell you. You were born with a special gift that evil people want to use."
"A gift, what gift?"
"You are the only one to be able to...."
End of Flashback
(Lenny's POV)
"I wonder why she stopped and what's she thinking about." I thought.
"Ayuma, is something wrong?" I asked. She was about to answer when June walked in with food. "Perfect timing, June..." I thought.
"I brought some noodles and beef and water for you." She said setting it down on the dresser next to the bed. "Do you feel better?"
"Kind of..." She whispered.
"I hope that I didn't make it any worse." I thought. "I shouldn't have told her she should talk. Stupid, Lenny that was so stupid!"
I stood up to leave and walked to the door.
"Lenny." I heard Ayuma called me and I turned around. I saw her looking at me blushing. "Thanks, it did help." I nodded my head and left smiling.
"Maybe I did do the right thing, but why are they after her? I wish she would have told me..." I thought, "But I am just a stranger, so she didn't have to tell me that much. I guess she was really lonely...just like me."
