"Hey Alyssa!"
I turned around and saw Melissa. I let out a sigh of relief immediately and hugged her.
"My mom and Kiera found out about us- my mom kicked me out and i don't have anywhere to go..." I told her, with tears filling my eyes
"Oh Alyssa... I can get you a small apartment to live in rent-free, but you need to help me with a job first. I need you to burn some papers that you'll steal from an address I'll give you." She said, looking at me with an evil look
"I'll do anything mel-! Give me the address and I'll do it-" I responded, looking at her desperately
"Good then, your help will be highly appreciated..." She said, and turned around
"I need to go now. I'll call you once everything is set up and you're good to go." She said and walked awayI sat down on the bench and started thinking to myself about what I'll do next. Should I actually do that job? What if i get in trouble? I needed to distract myself...
I got my electric guitar out of it's holder and practiced a song i made with Kiera, named "Ferrystuck", the melody is slow, and the tune is D-tuned. Strangers passing by left some cents or a dollar or two, which would help me significantly.
Next day was going to be big, so i should get some rest...
