Chapter 3:
"Alright..but first mustn't i tell u my name?" The man scratched his head. "Yes if you may but it really isn't at the upmost importance considering the circumstance were in.." Astoria harshly replied. "Oh well its Leonard, but you can call me Leo!." He said in a giddy tone. Astoria looked at him in disgust. Is he honestly being serious right now? Can this get any worse? I have no idea where my siblings are, who this man is, whats going up with my parents and a million and one other things. I wanted to break out and cry and him talking to me like I was an old pal of his wasn't helping!
She rubbed her eyes and yawned. "Can you please tell me now?"
He looked around and then scoffed as if it was an absurb question.
"Uhhh.."
"Uhhhh..? Is that all you have to say! You owe me an explanation! Tell me." She scolded
"No."
"No!" Thats all you have to say! No!
"Its not the right time girl! Please you will find out soon enough! Just..you need to trust me on this..please...stay." She could hear how desperate and defeated he sounded. "Or else..." He replied quietly. "Or else what" She spat out."Or else...or else..or else you wont see your siblings ever again.
"No!" She cried.
"You must understand! I wouldn't do this unless I had too!"
"Unless I had too. Is this old baboon acting like that this is hard on him? Im the one thats one hair strand away from snapping!" She clenched her fists, her knuckles went paper white because of how much pressure she was putting on her hand.
"Alright" Astoria gritted her teeth.
