I Can Only Hope

Chapter 4

I walk inside Chris's house and go into his room. I sit on his bean bag chair and he sits on his bed.

"The police came to my house. My parents were drinking last night." I tell him

"Are they gonna go to jail?" He asks.

"I don't know."

We sit in silence for about 20 seconds until he asks me "Wanna go down to Prince's house?"

"Sure."

I had no choice really. I mean I was at his house. Prince is a boy in my class who is supposed to be in a year higher but he got held back.

We walk to Princes House down the street and down a block and we are there. Prince lives in an old house with the old style like the ones you see on the tv show Full House. It isn't really in that good of shape though, with the front window busted by a burglar a few weeks ago. The burglar found nothing though, and decided it would be nice to knock over all the furniture in his living room. They never cleaned it up.

"What you want?" Says Prince looking tired after we knock on the door.

"Were bored," Says Chris "Can we come in?"

"No, my parents aian't home."

"Like you care," I say laughing "Whats that smell?"

I smell something that smells very strong come out of his house.

"Uh.. nothing I have to go." Prince says slamming the door.

"You do know he smokes weed with his older brother right?" Says Chris Walking down the porch.

"Oh," I say following.
