Going back couple of years,me and Kylie were best friends since childhood,we basically grew up together in this mess.probably the fact that we had to share the same experiences made our friendship stronger.
One day when we were 15 we tried,actually succeeded to escape and get thru the gates, without being chased by the guards.Somehow we end up running ,soon enough to realise we were lost. The cold air of the night hitting us, darkness and a crispy wind blowing away dead leaves, the only light to appear it was the moon. Although the sky was beautiful ,lots of stars perfectly aligned shining through the dark soul of the night able to hear the silences between black and grey buildings,empty, like it was a storm that washed away the hole place,leaving behind just ruins .it was hard to belive that we gonna find someone on those endless streets that can help us.Time was not helping, we had to be back by the morning, at 4:30.Rules were there to obey,at least..Of course, we did get lost and started to freak out .
"Madison,what are we gonna do now?!"
"You crazy?! You re the one who came up with the idea! I shouldn't had listened to you,Ky."
" Yea,right! And when I told you to stay home? Why didn't you?"
" You re my stupid best friend! Of course if you go down,I go too!" Rolling My eyes i was so angry on myself too this time.
Laughing a bit loud, i heard some noise coming from one of the houses.
" Girls,what on earth are you doing in this side of the town?! Come inside,is not safe.." an elderly woman showing at one the doors.
We both froze,being shocked, but all the sudden we heard sirens from far away so the safest thing to do was run in the house. Typical Kilye,dragging me into this.
" Why are you too in this side of the town?" The woman said while locking and checking the door carefully.
"Oh well, we wanted to explore. Who are you tho?"
"Lana,and you girls?"
"I m Madison,and that my best friend Kilye.You look So familiar tho..have i seen you before?"
"No..are you an Evans?"
"Yea,that's my last name.How did you know?"
"Because you were meant to find me..unfortunately I don't have all the answers you looking for.First, you need to learn what questions are allowed.."
"That's doesn't make any sense.Look,we have to go back,and right now.Is getting late,and seems like they started to look for us. Is gonna be bad if they found out we're missing.And not to blame anyone,but this is your fault,Kilye!" I said giving her an angry look, sarcasm being written all over my face.
"Before you go,Madison.. have you heard about "the paradise?"
"No..what's that?" I curiously asked.is safe to say that she got my attention.In fact,I lied. I heard some stories about it, just before my mom was taken from me .She would often talk about it,small stories with a perfect description making that place so real.
"You know you re not supposed to lie,Maddy." Lana gave me a sad look,making me feel bad about it.
"Ugh,fine! Yea,i heard some stories from my mom.But i was 6 years old..i remember some of them.oddly specific she talked about how she wants to look for it " suddenly i feel a wave of tears appearing.Memories with mom appeared like a movie that's playing in my head..memories i though i forgot.
"Maddy,you okay?" Ky took my hands,as i come back to reality.
"Yes, I am." I looked back at Ky,and then to Lana
"We really have to find a way to go back,Ky,or we gonna be in so much trouble" Ky nodded.
"Do you know how we can get back,Lana?Can you help us?"
She looked at me and smiled, turning around, moving towards an old wardrobe.Right underneath some old clothes she takes out a grey notebook,handing it to me
" This will guide you back,you still have time. Also if you look more,can be the answer.Madison..dear child.." she looks me in the eyes and I froze.
" I hope you know you too are always welcome here"
"Thank you.." shyly I took the notebook ,grab Ky s hand and we were out thru that door.



What is this woman talking about tho? We can't just walked in someone's house,in a part of a town that supposed to be abandoned.. it doesn't make sense..
