Mysterion's girl

Chapters 5- 6

school let out and I was walking home, it was a bit cold and I held my project with both of my hands. Kenny and I decided that instead of going to the café, that we would go to his house, make coffee and work on it in his room. We were actually unknowingly neighbors! I was really happy to know that. Kenny ended up ditching a bit early, and said he would meet me at his house.

I was going to stop by my house to pick up my markers. on my way home I bumped into Kyle.

"oh, hey olive." Kyle smiled at me, "want to go to my house, me and Stan are going to play guitar hero!?" Kyle pointed in the direction of his house. "sorry maybe another time, me and Kenny need to finish our project." I was a bit sad, but I'm sure he'd invite me again some time.

"nah, it's cool dude, we also have to finish our project." Kyle waved goodbye and I smiled and continued walking. when I arrived to my house the kitchen smelled kinda funny.

It smelled like our old house, the musky scunk like aroma. They were smoking the leaves again. I sighed a bit and walked further in the house. my mom was smoking with a few people I didn't recognize. I sped walked to my room to grab my colored pencils and other art supplies. I quickly shoved them in my bag. I didn't want to go through the front door again while my parents smoked, they'd probably not want to see me right now, they always acted weird around me when they smoke. So now I needed to find a new way out of my house. The only other way out of my small bedroom was the window.

I opened the window and popped out the screen. I looked out and saw a large mound of snow right out side the window. I grabbed my backpack and chucked it out the window, I then got up on the window sill and dangled my feet out. Keeping in mind that I was on a second story floor I swallowed my fear and hopped out. Upon impact on the soft mound of snow I managed to cut my wrist some how. The cut was not critical, but it did sting. I rubbed some snow on it, and it felt a little better.

Smiling at my accomplished escape I walked over to my backpack and brushed the snow off the fabric. Although the snow made my backpack and cloths a bit damp I wasn't upset, just a bit cold.

I made my way to the house that was in the middle of the unfinished complex. Conveniently there was a sign that said 'historical Kenny's house', I giggled. What is the purpose of this ridiculous sign. I opened the gate and made my way to the front door. I didn't see a doorbell so I knocked seedily three times awaiting for Kenny to open the door. 

I heard a shuffle behind the closed door and the shackle of locks being unlocked, then the door opened to revile a little girl, her hair was in little pigtails. She held a baby doll and smiled up at me. "Hi, I'm Karen! Are you Kenny's friend." Karen opened the door a little wider and let me walk in. 

She was absolutely adorable! "Yes, I'm olive its very nice to meet you!" I held my hand out for her to shake, which she did. Her hand felt so fragile in mine, like if I held any tighter I would have broke her fingers. 

Instead of letting go of my hand after shaking it she held it and led me to another room in Kenny's house. she led me in front of a door with a poster of a women in a bikini holding a beer bottle.

" Kenny's in his room, ima go play with my dolly!" Karen ran off before I could thank her, she is so sweet.

I turned back to the door, and knocked, once my fist made contact with the door it slowly opened. and no one was there. I didn't want to invade Kenny's room but at the same time I wanted to finish the project. I took a few steps inside the bedroom and closed the door behind me. I took the time to look around. Kenny had many posters of NASCAR and half naked women on his walls. there were a few old toys laying on the floor, a dresser, and a closet. I saw that our project was sitting on Kenny's bed and decided to add onto it while he was out. I set out everything on the floor and started citing quotes from my history book.
