Trust no one

Chapter 4

As we reach Mer's house we see her mom sitting outside in the garden reading a magazine. I suppose she has just finished the household chores and is now relaxing. She didn't work because Mer's father was an architect and made enough money for both of them.

Their house is really big, bigger than most of the houses in town. It has two floors. In the first floor there is a huge living room that constists of black leather sofas, a glass table and a TV of modern technology.

In the first floor there is also the kitchen and the bathroom. Even though the family is wealthy and the house big the decoration is minimalistic. Neither Mr. nor Mrs. Reighard (Mer's parents) like extremely fancy things.

We get into Mer's house and go upstairs where there are her room, her brother's room and her parent's bedroom. We go inside her room and she closes and locks her door. Even though I come here almost every day I can't stop myself from observing and admiring her room every single time I come.

I'll admit that I'm a bit jealous. Her room is double the size of mine. It's painted in a really cute pink colour and has decorations hanging on the walls such as pictures of us when we were younger and some paintings. Her bed is as big as her parent's even though she sleeps alone and has pillows of all shapes and sizes on it.She even has her own little bathroom and a huge closet with all her modern clothes and shoes in it.

I'm lost in my thoughts fantasizing how it would be to have a room like this and how I would decorate it when Mer brings me back to reality.

"Emma, can you hear me?" she yells.

"Yes, yes"

"Finally! What are we going to do? Will we get in his room?" she asks.

I don't know if it's a good idea to get in her brother's room and start searching all his things. I wouldn't like anyone going through things in my room but there there isn't another way to learn where he might have gone. So I just nod in aggrement.

"Well, come on" she drags me out of her room and we both get in her brother's room and lock the door behind us in case her parents decide to come upstairs.

Mer opens the closet first and we see all his clothes in there.

"Nothing is missing. All his clothes are here and his backpack, too. I don't think he planned to leave beacause he would have taken something with him" Mer says.

We spend a lot of time searching everywhere. We search under his bed, in the closet, on his desk and we can't find something useful only a few old comics, dvds and dirty socks.

"This is our last hope" I tell Mer as we both stare at the drawer below his desk. We open the drawer that is full of different kinds of trash. I doubt we'll ever find something useful in here but we keep searching anyways.

We have almost finished searching when I drag some old papers that cause something to fall. At first I don't get what it is but after I see Mer's surprised expression and hear her gasp I understand.
