Madelyn's POV
I grab my brown small cross body bag digging through in the payphone booth trying g to find a quarter. I first emptied my change holder of course it was empty. I roll my eyes in frustration looking in my wallet, all I had was a twenty. I look around hoping someone was open,
"Yeah a store is gonna he open at 4 in the morning, good thinking Maddie." I roll my eyes and search through the body of my purse. All I could find was a single dime. I take it out. I stick it back in trying to think of how far I was from home. "Only like a dozen blocks so, you can walk in the rain." I sighs urging my bag back on and exiting the payphone to start walking home. I put up my hoodie or Dally's hoodie that was for sown reason in the back of the car. I cross my arms and try and hurry home.

   It took twenty minutes to get home finally. I sigh in relief heading up the steps. I stop when I see a note slipped into the door. I grab it with shaking hands. 
"Dallas and Madelyn,
It seems you've been behind on your payments for a few months and we sent you a letter a couple weeks ago saying that you were being evicted, your things are still in the house and I just can't keep you in the house anymore, so I will allow you this Tuesday to gather your things, thank you.
Yours truly
Landlord
Ryan."
I sigh heavily again letting tears rush down my cheeks. I crumple the letter throwing it against the porch.
"What fucking letter?" I whisper to myself trying to think of a letter we've gotten, we haven't gotten any letters at all for months, so what the hell? I sink to the porch steps trying to think of what to do. It was now 4:30 in the morning that Sunday night. I was screwed, I haven't spoken to my family in over a year and the closest people that we know are the Curtis's who live more than eight miles away. I start to cry harder.
"Why is everything going wrong?" I whisper wiping away tears. "I don't have a choice, I can't stay in the rain, I'm gonna get sick." I sigh wiping more tears away and standing walking for the Curtis house hooks they would let me stay.
