Chapter 2: Anonymous Package

The next day

I opened my eyes as the sunlight shined upon me, I got up off my bed and walked to the washroom to wash my face, I looked at my face in the mirror, “should I have peirced my ear?” I ask myself laughingly.

About an hour later after getting ready I looked at the clock it was 7:30am. I was going to make myself breakfast but I dibt have any groceries, I had a lot to do this weekend before Monday which is 2 days away.

After checking out of the hotel I went to a café then to the mall, I entered many stores and bought a lot of clothes, I had to buy my daily necessities and a phone.

I sat down on a nearby bench taking a 2 minute break. “This sure is a lot of work.” After buying clothes I bought my necessary school utensils and a covering for my bed for when I move into my dorm.

Half a day later

I went back to my hotel and went to my room and took a shower, I’ve had a long day, so I might as well rest tomorrow. before coming back to the hotel I bought groceries to last for tonight and tomorrow.

I sat on the sofa after taking a long shower and switched the tv on watching a movie while falling to sleep.

The next day I woke up from the knock on my room door, I opened the door and looked at the young girl “may I help you?” I ask her,

She smiled and said “hi I was sent here to deliver your package.

I collected the passage and thanked the girl, then closed the door after she left. I observed the package trying to remember if i ordered something. There was no senders address but the receivers address alone.

I opened the package and found wrapped inside a watch which was set for 12:00pm with a note. Saying:

You’re new here right? Welcome to country A ask me for anything I’ll help you.

-the person you saved 12 yrs ago

My hands started shaking, “how....how did he know? Is he-a-alive?!!” I was sure I saw him die in my hands from drowning “I slumped onto the floor.

12 years ago

“Ethan do you think the water is deep, anyone who fall into the water can drown?” A little girl stooped down throwing bricks into the water alongside a little boy about a year older. “Maybe.” He says also throwing the bricks into the water.

“Oh...” “I’ll go ask mommy” the little girl added. She ran up the hill and ran into the house, she walked to an room with art hanged around on the wall, as her mother focused on her painting, she swept her hair back looking like an angel.

Her mother looked up at her “molly you’re back?” She says smiling opening her arms for molly to run into them. Mommy you look like an angel when painting.” Molly says smiling squeezing her mother even tighter “I love your smell.” She added, “alright, alright, where is Ethan?” Molly’s mother asks.

“Oh he’s at the river bank throwing pebbles into the river.” Molly mentiones.

“What?! He’s there by himself?” She asks in usion. She left what she was doing and ran outside to check on Ethan.

When she reached out she saw no one there, “Molly where is Ethan?!” She ask panicking again.

“This is where I left him, I swear!” Molly continued saying, “I’m right here.” A voice of a young boy sounded out from behind,

“Ethan! Where were you?” She asks him. “I went to the garden to pick some flowers for Molly.” He said,

“Next tome you two must always stay together, don’t go outside without me,” her mother say

“But why mommy?” Both Etan and Molly Asks again, their mother knelt down and rubbed their heads, “because there is some scary monsters that is looking for us.” She replies

“Monsters.” They asks again, “don’t worry much, with mommy and daddy here I will protect you.” She says reassuring them.
