"I'm really sorry, Mrs Peterson. I think you don't get good sleep lastnight. I can see dark circles around your eyes" l try my best to become comfortable.

"I'm interested in craft work. So, I do some painting for my friend. Her birthday is coming day after tomorrow. "she replied.

After few minutes, Rose father and brother Brent enter dining hall. They Carry a big wooden box with them.

When her father see me, Mr Peterson greet me. But Rose brother don't even look at me. He come and sit beside me in dining table.

Her father is tall with salt and pepper hair. I can't see her brother face properly. Because he sit beside me.

Then we started to eat. We discuss about many things . Now I become more comfortable with Rose family without her brother. He don't talk to me anything .He only reply "Mmm" "yes" to me.

After finish eating, Rose take me to her room. It is really nice. Many craft works are there. They are all made by her mom. I like it.

Rose tell about her schooling and collage. She is major in English literature. Her brother is major in music.

My brother called me and asked to come fast home. It's around 6.30pm. I say good bye to them.

I take my way back to home. After few seconds, someone is calling me .I turn back and see. It's Rose brother . He is tall with sharp nose and black eyes .why he is calling me?

"Hey, wait. Just a minute. My father ask me to give this bread to you. "he give me the bread and take his way even without saying anything.

While going home, I buy some butter from bakery for my brother. Because he like bread and butter combination. The market is same as two years ago.

"Hey, do you need anything?"a woman around 50years old asked me from the shop near the bakery .

"No thanks . I don't want anything. "I replied.

"I guess you need that "she replied again. So, I decided to go inside the shop.

When I enter the shop,there is a small christmas tree there. But this is not Christmas season. I noticed that there is a flower pot in the table. Flowers in the plant are in different colours.

The shop contain many things. But, they are arranged prfecty. Many things in that shop are made up of wooden materials. Some are look very old.

Many photographs are there. Some paintings and some paper works are there.

She is searching something in the shelf. Finally she take a old book from it and say

"you need it. Take care of it. "she give me that book. It's very old. Small effort can tear the paper.

I open the book .there is nothing in that book. It's empty. I look at her. She smile at me. Then she went inside into a room.

"Make use of it. I don't need any money for this " a voice come from that room. I'm confused.

I reach home. It's around 7.30pm.I give the bread and butter to my grandma. After finished my dinner, I sit in the sofa and watch TV.

Timmi, my pet play with my brother.Then I joined them . While playing, Timmi slip from the table and going to fell down along with that book.

My brother run and catch Timmi but that book fell down .I take the book and noticed that some papers are there.

I look at that paper. My pupils dilated.I see a drawing of a two little girls. I don't no who is the other one but I'm there in that drawing.
