*knock knock*
"Room service!"
Nina and Kira found a hotel. As soon as they settled in, they went straight to bed.
*knock knock*
Nina jumped out of bed alerted. She was awoken by the second knock, so she didn't hear that it was room service. She shook Kira repeatedly to wake her up, but it didn't work.
*Door starts to unlock*
Nina ran to the door, looked through the peep-hole, and let out a sigh of relief. As the door opened, Kira woke up also.
"Oops, I can come another time." said the maid.
"Thank you." Kira smiled at the maid as she left. Then she went back to bed. Nina couldn't because she had gotten too scared before. So, she took a shower, brushed her teeth, did her hair, got dressed, and went to go get a bite.

*rrrrringgg*
"Hello?" Nina answered.
"Where did you go?"
"Chik-fil-a."
"Oh. Get me something."
"Okay.. Hey Kira, do you remember Chris?"
"Chris... Your brother Chris? Yeah, why?"
"Nothing.. Uhh, I'll see you later."
Chris is a year younger than Nina. Making him 19. They split up after their parents died a year ago. It was a tough time and they didn't know what to do. So, they went their separate ways and never kept in touch. They never really thought that they would see each other. But they thought wrong, as Chris was standing in line somewhere behind her at Chik-fil-a.
She couldn't help but to step out of line. She walked over to him, hoping he would look up from his phone. He didn't.
"Excuse me, sir. You're next in line." Nina said in a low voice.
"Oh. Thank--" he looked up noticing it was his sister. He gave her a nice, long, hug, and they walked over to a seat. They talked about all that's happened in the past year. Including Nina's "runaway" situation.

"Kira, I'm back!"
"Finally, I'm hungry."
Nina's face got pale . She got so caught up in talking to Chris, that she forgot to bring food for Kira and herself.
"Sorry."
