Little Flower

Search

We all stood near the entrance of the forest as the littles were all confused about what was going on. "Flower ran in this direction, so we spread out in teams of 2-3 people," Steven said as Richard just nodded. We divided into groups and started to search.

I was paired with Noah and Asher. I didn't care they were so focused on each other and the situation that i could easily sneak away. I knew the forest like the back of my hand of how often i tried to run away (not anymore) or threw a fit. I stopped in my tracks as i heard crying. I slowly approached, looking that no one saw me. "What are you doing here, Flower?" She looked up at me as i sat down,"hurt," she pointed at her foot."What happened?" I looked at it she must have stepped on a stone or thorns. Either way, it wasn't good. "Meanie," i looked up. "Me ?" She shook her head, whipping her tears coughing, letting me hear a rattling from her chest. "Are you okay ?" She shook her head."Nari meanie, like Wellton," i looked at her, knowing the name from somewhere. "You know their first names ?" She shook her head "shirt," she looked confused as i called out "YELLOW," Immediately, you could hear running."Jack, what were your cousins with surename?" Jackson looked confused as Lisa picked up Flower."I don't know right now, Why ?" I just shrugged as we started to walk back. Wellton, i knew it, but i don't remember.

Lisa hugged me tight as we got to our house. Noah and Asher wouldn't leave my side either. "Why did you run ?" I looked down." I was scared you'd hit me," Asher just shook his head. "Asher would never hurt you. In fact, none of us would hurt you," i nodded, unsure."I think I know Leo from somewhere," they looked at me but didn't say anything. "But i don't know you," i looked at lisa in question. "I'm his cousin," i nodded. I closed my eyes, leaning back on Lisa. "Let's look after your foot," i looked at Asher as he took my foot, whispering something to Noah, who ran away and came back with a box. "Thank you," Asher kissed Noah on his head before he sat down beside him, giving Asher stuff that he asked for. I watched them as they looked at it, making me anxious about what they would do. I watched as Asher picked something up, and Lisa turned my face away when i felt pain go through my foot. I started to cry silently, scared to make a noise. "Flower breathe, you need to breathe," I shook my head as a second pain came through me, making me sob and gasping for air. "Should Asher stop for a minute ?" Lisa asked as i started to get dizzy, i shook my head as she made me look at her."we take some deep breaths before asher continues, okay?" i nodded as she started to breathe, making me copy her. Noah came on the couch with us as he hugged us, making me calm down.

After a lot more pain, i got picked up and put to bed.

I was sitting with Luke and Elijah in the living room as they reassured me that it wasn't my fault Flower ran away. "She always did hide but never ran away," i explained as Luke hugged me. "What did you talk about before she ran ?" I looked at the floor."She wanted to go home in the city, and i got a bit loud and told her that the city isn't our home and she ran out," they nodded, hugging me thighter "Is in the city something she was going to often or she forgot?" I shrugged my shoulders."i didn’t keep track of where she was going when she wasn't with me in the house or at work," they nodded. "Let's not focus too much on it, okay ? Lisa and Asher are there to take care of it," i nodded, relaxing into Lukes arms. i wanted to slip but didn't feel ready yet to slip alone around them.
