156 I GOT YOU

LUKE’S POV

Here, I was driving home, still thinking about the news that had come to me. Harrier was out of prison; she broke out of jail, and now I don’t even know if I should be sad or happy. Reminiscing about the times we spent with each other was really awesome, but the fact that she had caused me pain really changed all of that. She murdered them all for the sake of love. But she was the one who had ruined everything in the first place.

Now this news came as a blow to me. I wasn’t going to lie. I wondered where she could be now. I knew something crazy was going to happen in the days to come; there was no doubt about that. Harriet had proven that she was a psychopath. And she could be dangerous around people, but I wasn’t afraid of her. I was just concerned about the people around me. The fact that Ariel and I were now passionate toward each other. And Harriet might try to do something to separate us. Go to be careful; the lady broke out of prison, and this was no movie where she was playing the lead role.

And as I was driving, I spotted two little children running on the road.

Unfortunately, I applied the brakes and the vehicle came to a complete stop prior to any catastrophic events transpiring.

“Can’t you two watch? What if something bad had happened to you? You both got to be careful next time, okay?” I scolded, bursting out of my car. They didn’t answer; they just stood like statues, staring at me. The sad expression on their faces had this swell of guilt moving right through me. I was now feeling bad for scolding them.

I sighed and hunkered down, close to the both of them. “Look, I’m really sorry. But you two need to be careful just in case next time. There are numerous insane drivers

on the road, and they could run you over if you don’t watch out. I’m sorry for being too harsh on you guys.”

They refused to give me a response, and they were both still staring at me. I was wondering if they could even talk. Okay, I guess I shouldn’t be going too far.

I looked around and glanced back at the both of them. “Where are your parents?”

One shook his head slowly, and the other answered softly, “We don’t have parents.”

“We’re orphans, and we have no place to stay.
