sky sat in miller's bathroom.

her eyes burned as tears fell. no sounds of sobs, just tears.

sky's thoughts ran wild. maybe she could start a new life. but she knew that could be difficult.

she got up from the cold floor, and looked at her face in the mirror.

her cheeks are hollow and blotchy, her face almost the color of paper, and her eyes bright red. she looks down in shame of herself.

sky exhales deeply and runs her hands through her hair. she looks behind her, and sees the shower.

she sighs. "might as well."

she quickly undresses herself, and turns the water on. she stands under the showerhead and thinks about what to do next.

miller hears the water going and sighs of relief. he nervously shakes his legs, and rubs his face with his hands.

sky was his only little sister. he felt that he needed to do something before she went back to tyler.

miller pulls on his hair. as much as he didn't want to argue with sky again, he was going to do it.

he picks up his phone from the coffee table and dials the number.

"911, what's your emergency?"

"hello, um, this is kinda of a long story." miller sighed.

just a quick little update.
