When we finally reached my house, the sun was coming up. We all showered, ate, and we took turns sleeping with two people keeping watch at a time till everyone was fully rested.
I look at Jade and ask, "why would your parents want to kill everyone."
At first, she was like, I don't know, a little like she was hesitating on answering.
Then she was, "like, remember when you guys locked me in that abandoned apartment building? Well, after You guys let me out, I got home late, and my parents were about to ground me, so I told them what happened, and they were so mad. I managed to convince them not to call you guys' parents, but they were still mad."
"Were they mad because you got home late or because we locked you in?" asked Lenny
I kinda just looked at him as if he was dumb and said, "wouldn't you be upset about both if that was your child?"
We all got hungry, so we went into the kitchen to get some food. While we were eating, I started thinking about how did Malcolm and Lenny getaway? I don't think they would just let them go; they knew something.
I just decided to ask them how they got away. They looked at each other and made eye contact.
Then Malcolm said, "that they didn't know; the last thing they remember before being at the clubhouse was everyone screaming.?
I was still a little suspicious of them, but I didn't say anything because the only thing to be wary of was how they got away, but I was still gonna keep an eye on them.
It was quiet; everyone took turns cleaning themselves up and putting on warmer clothes because it was freezing outside.
I finally broke the silence saying, "We can't stay here for long everyone that is after us knows where I live."
"Where are we going to go?" Lenny asked.
I wanted to split up because I still don't trust them, and having them away from us would make our odds better. As the saying goes, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
I decided that we could stay in this little group.
