"Sorry ammi." Said Anaya looking down.

"You will not change"

Her parents  shouting was heard from her room and she closed her door.

She smiled looking at her bracelet.  He is the one who could always bring smile on her face. watching the time she left taking her keys purse phone and wallet she left.  Destination to her secret place. To  his secret place.  To their secret  place.
