Chapter 10
She left school at the end of the day. Dark clouds surrounded the sky bringing in a darkness, but she continued walking. It was in her best interest that she leave Joel alone for the time being. He had just been to the hospital he didn't need her right now. The rain soon poured from the darkness above. She stopped and stared in to the rain. She sighed to herself and continued walking. The roads seem desolate even though it was just after school, where was everyone picking up their kids? She thought to herself. She arrived at her drive way drenched in the rain above. She opened up her brick house and stepped inside.
The lush green paddocks were as a lake, as the cold frost extended to the horizon. Looking back, things were different to they have become. She hasn't been since those memorable yet painful days, but time has passed so quickly. The cold hard rain pounded the thin glass window, observing the frost covered paddocks. The relentless rain assaulted the old rusty iron roof. The red and orange of the friendly consoling fire, together with the old black and brown woolen blanket, which was so precious to her. The fire crackled, her friend, her companion and her loyal warrior. The darkness so enveloped her eyes and she fell into a slumber.
The next morning she was met with the orangey glow of the sunrise, it was a weekend so she had no reason to go to school that day. She considered going Joel but his parents would be having their day off so she decided against it. She got off her bed and started rummaging through her house. She soon found and old worn out cardboard box with the labeled 'Memories' on it. She got curious as she had no recollection of this box being here and looked inside it. She pulled out a old photograph.
Smash!
She dropped it as soon as she picked it up. How could there be surviving pictures? She thought to herself.
"I swear I destroyed all of them..." She spoke to herself. This box has definitely taken her interest. She searched more and more. Finding down items she never new existed, old picture frames, objects and much more. What will I do? She thought to herself. She thought she had destroyed everything involving that stuff.
What if Joel found out?
No. She couldn't drag him into this. This was her problem, Joel couldn't help much anyway. She grabbed as much as she can and quickly took them back to her room. Inside her room lay a red wooden bed, a grey shelf and a wooden wardrobe. She took out some old papers.
"Where is it..."
She scrambled through those papers looking for what she needed, not what she wanted. She saw old photos of her and other people across all genders, but what seemed strange was that some old photos contained of someone looking very similar to her, but she often wore different clothes and had different hair styles. With messages like 'where?' 'Why?' 'How?' And other scribbles not recognized in the English language.
"Finally! We found it" She took out a case inside containing various pictures and drawings. Most of the paper inside was covered in drawings and scribbles. She took a moment and smiled at the pictures before adding some of the items she scavenged inside it. She closed the case and quickly put everything away, closer just a little more time. She just needs to keep Joel away, if he found out everything she worked for could be lost. But could she? That curiosity of his always got the better of him but she couldn't afford to lose him too. She refused to see it happen again. She grabbed her wallet, phone and other essentials and headed for the door. She had places to be, the word calls for her.
Now it's finally time for her to pick up the phone.
