Lanore?

Holy crap she looks so different. It's been so long since I've seen her, the last time I saw her was at the hospital after the accident. But what is she doing with Shelly?

I can't hear anything this far, I just can see Shelly whispering something to Lanore and gave her the plastic bag and went inside the house with her. What's going on? I better wait here.
-
I've been in my car for almost an hour until Shelly finally came out of the building, she drove off almost immediately so I followed her to downtown then I lost her.
What is she doing with Lanore and most importantly, what is in the bag?
-
'Mom, I saw Lanore today.' I said to her while preparing the food for dinner.

'Ethan, you better not be joking around.' My mom put down the knife and look at me.

'I'm not mom, I swear I saw her today.' I replied.

'Where?' My mom's eyes widened.

'In WeHo, I think it was an abandoned building.' I replied.

'You shouldn't be in that part of the city Ethan, it's dangerous. What's Lanore doing there?' She asked.

'I don't know, she was with my friend Shelly, the girl I met on the first day of school? Shelly came to the building to see Lanore, that's all I know.' I replied.

'Well, don't get involved in Lanore's business, I don't trust her.' My mom said, I felt her anger and I understand.

My mom haven't let go of what happened with Lanore, I know my mom is afraid of Lanore and what she will do to the family. Lanore is a really bad person, she used to beat us up including mom, but we never said anything to her, we should have. But it's too late now.

I was thinking about the whole thing for the whole night. Should I go ask Shelly? Should I intervene with this?

Holy shit! What just happened? I better tell Vic.

'Victoria open up.' I knocked on her bedroom door.

'What do you want Ethan?' Victoria glared at me.

'See for yourself.' I showed her the phone.

'Lanore?!' She said surprisingly.

'Yeah, I was following Shelly because she was acting strange and she had bruises and cuts on her arm.' I added.

'Ignore her, you can't believe this woman. Now get out! I need to go to bed.' Victoria said and pushes me out of the door.

What a wonderful little sister.

I decided to let it be, Victoria is right. Lanore can't be trusted.
-
I walked into the lecture hall and thank god I wasn't late, I barely made it.
Something's missing though. Shelly is not here again.

I tried to stop myself from over thinking until I hear my phone buzz, so I took a peak.


SHELLY

Lanore was serious? Oh god no.
