〈running out of time〉

Chap 2: Saved

Savannah's POV

"Savannah, my watch says ten minutes!" Keziah exclaimed. I started panicking and running my hands through my hair. "Hide in the store!" I whisper yelled, hopefully only Keziah heard me, I started dragging Keziah along with me. Her black hair was flying in her face. We entered and head straight for the dressing rooms. We hid together in one. Keziah fixed her hair putting extra strands of her hair behind her ears. She looked back at her watch. "We gained back the time." She said. "That's great. At least we won't die today." I replied, a chuckle following my sentence.

We both exited the dressing room quietly closing the door. I watched as Keziah walked around looking through several clothes, shoes, and accessories. She only ended up with one outfit which was one bag and I ended up with that too.We took a taxi back to our apartment and we changed.

Keziah wore a navy blue dress with rhinestones on the collar with a white headband and her hair was wavy, she paired it with a pair of white flats and a pearl bracelet. I wore a black dress with a cardigan and some ankle boots.

Keziah's POV

I put on some perfume and fixed my head band. I looked at my watch, my normal watch, to find out that it was 7:53 PM. I heard the doorbell ring and I rushed toward the door. I opened it up to see Cameron. He stared at me for a couple of seconds before he regained his thoughts. "Dinner is starting at my house and I invited some other people." He said, scratching the back of his neck.

I nodded my head toward Savannah and she came along with me. I brought my navy blue clutch and walked outside with her. I watched as Cameron opened the door to an apartment. The apartment was huge. There was a black bowl south white flowers inside of them. I pushed out a chair and sat down next to Savannah. I looked at her with a 'hope for the best' look in my eyes. I saw another boy walk in, around our age. "Hey, I'm Raymond. I'm a friend of Cameron's." He explained holding out his hand for me to shake. I shook his hand.

I looked in my bag for my hand sanitizer. I found it and put a good amount on my hands then rubbing my hands together. I looked as Cameron entered the room with steak. I moved my eyes toward Raymond to see him carrying sparkling cider and water. He set them down. 'Let the feast begin!' Is what I wanted them to say right now. "Let's start off with a prayer, shall we?" Raymond suggested. I nodded my head and folded my hands together and closed my eyes leaning forward.
