Day and Night and the Ritual

Ch. 12: Mister Han's Visit

Sasha sat at the table drawing Night, one half his cat form, the other half his dragon form. Helen, who insisted on being called Miss Helen, was sitting in a corner reading a book. She was sucked into the book. Miss Helen wrapped up her book then went over to Sasha and sat down. "What are ya drawing?" Miss Helen asked. "Night." Sasha responded and continued drawing the outlines. Miss Helen observed Sasha's drawing and looked closely at it. She started to see the cat outline look more like a cat. The Dragon outline wasn't even started yet. Sasha started to hum and kick her legs against her seat. Miss Helen watched as the cat transformed to look like Night as a cat, she hadn't seen Night, so she didn't know if it was a good representation of him. Sasha soon finished the cat side, then started on the dragon side. Miss Helen watched as Sasha added the horns and reptilian eye. Sasha soon finished the drawing, and frowned, she missed Night. Sasha hung the drawing up on the refrigerator on a magnet that had Sasha as a baby on it. Sasha sat back at the table and rested her chin on her hands. Sam came down the stairs from the bedroom and sat by Sasha. Sasha stared out the window with her eyes brimming with tears. Miss Helen patted her on the back trying to make her feel better. A man came to the door, Miss Helen opened the door. "Oh, Hans." Miss Helen said, eyeing him. "Hi Helen, I just want to know how the search for Day is going, it's been a month since she has gone missing." The man said looking nervous twisting a hat he had in his hand. "We don't know." Miss Helen answered and started to shut the door in his face. "No, I got to talk to you." Mister Hans said, keeping the door open. Mister Hans slipped to the door and sat at the table next to Miss Helen. "You know how Margret does not like animals right?" Mister Hans asked. "Yeah." Miss Helen muttered. "I'm here to ask you to take care of Day after we find her, I still love her, but I can't have her, I love Margret too much, after all we are going to marry soon." Mister Hans said looking at Helen. "Omg! Really?" Miss Helen asked cupping her mouth. "Yes, after all Margret will not let me keep Day, but if you get her, I could visit her every once and awhile." Mister Hans said, looking at Miss Helen. "What's going on?" Sasha asked. "I'm giving my dog to Miss Helen. My fiancé dislikes dogs and other animals greatly, she recommended me putting Day down, but I remembered how much Miss Helen likes her." Mister Hans said looking at Sasha. Sasha gasped and looked at Miss Helen's face. Miss Helen's face was shocked, yet excited. "Well, good day Miss Helen." Mister Hans nodded and left the house. Sasha looked at Miss Helen. "I know I shouldn't be excited because I may not be able to keep Day..." Miss Helen said, her voice wavering. "So? We can hope." Sasha shrugged.
