the boy raps his pale knuckles onto the large door
it opens instantly
revealing a smiling girl; his little sister
'louis!' she shouts, hugging him
the boy smiles a faint smile and hands her the bag of candy
he tells her to tell their mum that he'll see her soon
the little sister smiles and closes the door as the boy walks away
she digs into her bag of sweets, thankful for her older brother
little does she know her brother's fate
in what is now
thirty minutes.
