I noticed we're all we've got left.
Scarlet POV:
"Scarlet, come in here right now!"called the director of the girls home that I am staying in. I didn't choose to be here, but my parents didn't care about me or my brother, so we lived in someone from his gangs house for a while until he moved to Thailand, then I got sent to this girls home, and only dallas managed to run away from the fuzz. The last thing I remember him telling me was,'I'm gonna find you someday. Even if it means I have to travel the world, I will come.' And then he left. Now I am in this girls home wich isn't particularly great. I'm still living with the hope that one day dallas and I will meet up again. "I said come here, Scarlet Jay Winston!" I heard her scream again. I was shaking as I got on my way to Ms Lenoras office. "You forgot to make your bed again. God dammit! Stop being useless!" She screamed. Then she proceeded to hit me multiple times with a wooden ruler. She did that often, but since I was one of her least favorite girls here, she hits me most. After she was done hitting me, I ran out of her office and managed to escape the girls' home. Tears streaming down my cheeks. I live on the rough side of New York, so there are many dark alleyways and dangerous people and gangs, but I didn't care right now. I sat in an alley and cried. My whole body shaking. Then I heard some footsteps and a familiar voice. "Scarlet? Is that you?" I knew immediately that it was my gang. I am in a gang of seven girls, including me. Their names are: Jade (16yo), Ella (19yo), Ruby (17yo), Anna (18yo), Emma (16yo), Jane (15yo), and me. I looked up and saw Ruby approaching me. "Did the old hag hit you again?" I nodded and felt her pull up my left sleeve and touch my arm, to which I lightly whimpered since I had bruises and somewhat cuts on it. "Oh, I'm sorry. Come, let's go to my house and get you freshend up." She said.
Dallas POV:
I was at my place, for once, thinking about something concrete. My sister. For the past four years, I have been trying to remember where the girls' home is, that Scarlet is in. I have been searching my whole apartment for at least a little piece of paper that has an address or something. I even asked Buck if he remembers me telling him something about the girls' home that she is staying in. And I honestly don't know why it is only coming to mind recently. I mean, I've always thought about finding her. I decided to get my jacket so that I could go to the dingo and look for trouble or something like that. Then when i opened the closet I noticed a note that I had never seen it before. I looked at what was inside, and sure enough, it was a letter.
On it was written:
-------------------------------------------------------------
To: Dallas Tucker Winston
From: Scarlet Jay Winston
Dear dally,
In case you remember, four years ago, we were forced apart by the fuzz. I got sent to a girls' home, and you managed to escape to Tulsa.
I don't mean to sound rude, but you said you would come find me some day. I wanted to let you know that the girls' home is horrible and that the mistres, Ms Lenora hits us. If you want to, which I can understand, if you don't, you could find me either in the alleys that we always used to go to, you know, the dark creepy ones that people get kidnapped and jumped in or in Lenoras girls home, wich is on the map wich is by the way also on the rough side of New York.
Sorry if I am disturbing you, or if you don't want to come, then that's fine with me.
I hope this finds you well.
XOXO Scarlet Jay Winston.

I was soooo happy that I came across this letter since it was dated two weeks ago, which isn't so long ago, and buck probably put the letter in here. It still hurts a little that she would think that I don't want her. Then, the realization hit me. I need to tell the gang.
