Callie POV
after the trucker dropped me off, I didn't know what to do. I was so hungry, but I didn't have any money. I knew I would have to steal something so I could eat. I entered the convience store, they were busy at the time so I thought I could pull it off. I walked around for awhile, then slipped a bottle of water and some chips into my bag. after doing so I looked up and saw a girl, I thought she might have saw me but wasn't sure, so I just quickly exited the store while the cashier was busy. once I got out of the store I quickly turned the corner. then I heard a voice call, it was the girl from the store and a group of other girls behind her.
Girl- hey, you going somewhere?
Callie- n..no
Girl- look I saw you steal that stuff from the store
Callie- are you going to turn me in?
Girl- maybe, unless you come with us
Callie- where?
Girl- come on, I'll show you what we do for money
I followed the girls down the dark alley
Brandon POV
I had been up all night, wondering and hoping moms had found Callie and were bringing her home now. when the returned home later in the day, all our hopes were dashed. they had found Wyatt, but Callie wasn't with him anymore and he had no idea where she had gone. moms said they had searched the area for awhile but came up with nothing.
later that night I was headed to my room, when I heard crying coming from Jesus and Judes room. I sofly knocked on the door and entered. Jude was alone in the room sitting on the floor by his bed. His eyes were red from crying. I sat down next to him.
Brandon- you okay?
Jude-its my fault Callie left
Brandon- what? no it's not, if anything its my fault
Jude- it is my fault, after I caught you guys I got so mad at Callie. I yelled at her and said horrible things I told her she didn't care about me and she was selfish. she wouldn't have left if I hadn't said those things to her.
Brandon- it's okay
Jude- I didn't mean it
he started to cry again
Brandon- I know you didn't, Callie knows that too
I hugged him and we both just cried
