    " That!" He said pointing towards the direction of the car, I turned around following where his index finger points. " Oh no. The car is on fire! " I scream, as I grabbed Greg's left hand and helps him up and supports him while we moved faster and far away from the car which is about to burst into flames. A bit far away from the flaming car, Greg snatched his hand away from mine." Hailey your bags are in there, I need to get them!" He limps as he ran towards the car." Greg No!" I wail at him but it was too late for him before he could reach the car, there was a loud explosion which threw him far away from the fuming car." Greg!!!!" I shouted as I ran to him, while laid on the ground. His clothes were torn and the skin on the elbow was scratched and wounded when he came down in full force." Greg, Greg! Are you okay?" "Mmmm! he groaned as he nodded his head to my question. I'm fine you need not worry. He forced a smile. Suddenly his eyes lit up agai

    Hours later, I arrived New York City. Stepping down from the plane as my feet touched the ground, it hit me instantly that I have nothing, no luggage, no destination, no money. The only thing in my hand is the cell phone given to me by Greg's driver. "The phone!" I said out loud . Quickly I proceeded outside the airport, there as I stood at the Exit way , I switch on the cell phone and browse through the contact list. Greg's number is the only contact in it as I click dial on the number while placing the phone on my left ear, the number isn't going, I hung up and dialed again but it yields the same result. I continue dialing over and over and over again but to no avail, his number is switched off. I felt frightened at this point, I am right here, at the biggest city in the world and I'm lost, I have no nowhere to go or whom to go to. " I shouldn't have come here, I have once again made a big blunder. I should have gone back home to new Mexico, to my mother." I weep sil

    I pick myself up from where I am left, again, in a dark alley, in the middle of nowhere. I start walking towards the boulevard, suddenly there was some sort of climate change as the night breeze turns chilling on my bare skin.I endured the cold air as I found a means of shelter at the restaurant across the street, walking into the diner, I carefully took a seat right next to the window while blowing some warm air into my hands with my mouth." Hello, what can I get for you?" I heard a voice say and I turn to find a lady dressed in casual jeans and a black crop-top,She wore a frown on her face, that compliments the dark shade of lipstick she was wearing. She had this mean temperament, I felt awkward talking to her. " Umm....hi, can I get a cup of coffee please!"" What kind?"" Huh?" I barely understand what she meant." I mean what kind do you prefer, how do you like your coffee, expresso, De cafe or......"" Oh, sorry now I get it. C

    " Babe!!" She calls out, which got me wondering, " Is there someone else in the apartment?" Well my question is answered when a guy with a towel tied around his waist, his looks aren't anything striking at all, but I don't think I am in any position to be judgemental, I'm merely a guest in their home." Oh, hey babe!" The gentleman walks up to her and gives her a warm kiss on the cheeks," Hey, why are you tying a towel! Can't you see we have a guest here?" She whispers to him." I just came out of the shower when I heard you at the entrance... Don't give me that look, I'll go put on some clothing, Okay?" He steals a glimpse at me and continues out." Don't mind all that, come... Have a seat, I will be right back!" She leaves me all alone in the living room and proceeds to her bedroom.A while later, " her boyfriend " I presume, walks into the room while shining a bright smile as he moves towards my direction."

If it wasn't urgent then..."" Then what? Who do you think you are to barge into my office and create such chaos?" He walked up to me and grabbed my arm." Nobody. I'm a nobody."

    We are here, eventually, my heart won't stop scampering throughout the entire trip. Sam and I make our way into the building which seems like a warehouse of the sort, there are some packaged goods in cartons stacked on the floor by the corner and some men standing and having a chit chat while some are busy arranging and repackaging the unknown goods in the cartons.It didn't look anything like what I had imagined on my way here, at least there isn't a group of varmints puffing smokes while counting stacks of cash, rather the men here seem to be more engrossed with what they are doing and everything seems legal to me." Hey! Excuse me, Sam waves at one of the men standing across the hall as he slowly takes a few steps closer to us with his brows furrow." Yeah?

She states.My room was always filled with the echoes of honking car horns and distinct noises of new york city, suddenly in those brief seconds as I hold the phone in my left ear and listening to the doctor without a word. The only thing that encompass my room is an eerie lull which sent a cold shiver and skepticism running down gently in my spine.Could this be a malediction in my fate, why does despair often knocks at my door each time there is a ray of hope and happiness in my life?"

I could sense something fishy but I can't seem to wrap my hands around it.We got to the shop and I resume my duty immediately, During my entire shift I try talking to Sam, however, she continues to avoid me on each attempt I make, using the term " there is no relation in business." Whenever I come to talk to have a word with her.I understand, perhaps I meddle in other people's matters but she isn't just anyone to me, she is my best friend and a sister to me, and I believe sisters don't keep their pain from one another.I know she is hiding her feelings, something must have happened to her to make her keep faking her smile and harboring so much anger in her heart."
