A/N – Thank you so much for the reviews, please keep them coming!!
Anne - Chapter 4
"How was school hunny?" My mom asked when I came home. My sister was already at the table drinking a glass of milk. I hoped she had met nicer people then those girls I had met at school.
"Fine...Do we have any Coke?"
"No, would you like some milk instead?"
"I think I'm going to take a walk and find some Coke," I told her, setting my backpack down.
"Alright, here's a dollar. Be back before dinner please."
"Yes, ma'am." I quickly left the house and got onto the street. Our neighborhood seemed quiet enough but nothing like the rural area that I had grown up in.
I turned right on the sidewalk and walked slowly along the street. I had no idea where to go, but I didn't want to go back to a house that I didn't feel was mine. I'd been walking for about a quarter mile when the houses began to look shabbier. I wasn't paying much attention though so I didn't really notice it at first. The lawns here were unkempt, the paint was peeling off the houses and there were kids hanging out on the front steps.
It was the kids who finally caught my attention. They were the kids who had been sitting to the right side in chem class. Now they were hanging out on their stoops and smoking...and staring at me as I walked past.
This made me uncomfortable. I looked around quickly and saw a DX station. They'd have Coke there and I could escape from these stares for a moment.
A/N – I know this one was kind of short, but the stories beginning to take off a bit. No more updates till Monday or Tuesday, I have a Model U.N. conference to be at starting tomorrow. I'll update soon though, promise!
