"We'll be back Mama!" Emma screamed .

"Take care my children and make sure you're back before dinner!" Our mother shouts back.

"Yes mama!" They both say and they giggle to each other.

The 14 year old boy with brown hair  and his 8 year old sister with brown hair too giggled as they went to the ice field in their town.  They loved to play and skate on the ice in the town square. They should have noticed that it was a bad luck day because the field was deserted and the sky were a different colour.

"Jack! Look at me I'm skating!"
Shrieked the little girl

"Yes Emma I see you! Good job but bet you can't do this!" Jack says and does a backward flip.

Emma ooohs and tries to copy. They have fun in the field but as time goes on the real danger comes.

Emma starts to skate and then she realizes that there is a crack. Jack notices and tries to make her calm down.

"Jack, I-I-I am scared. "

"Don't be. It's just a small crack that's all. Nothing to be afraid of. Just calm down. Everything is going to be okay. We'll take this as a game of hopscotch yeah yeah like you mostly play." He pretends to skip.

"Really?"

"Yes so how about this we do this. I skip and you skip twice as fast as you can and you win."

"O-o-okay"

"Good ready 1-2-3!!"

Emma screams as she skips

"EMMA!!!!"

Just as that happened everyone gathered. 





Later in the evening

They brought Emma's body. The Mother and Father were shock with grief but Jack couldn't bear because he felt he had killed his own sister. His last he remembered saying to her was her trying to play hopscotch. His parents tried to make cheer him a bit but he locked himself in his room and he never went to the funeral but he knew where they buried his sister.  He only came out 5 years later when he decided to go to college in the city and he had a new look he changed his hair white but he never looked cheerful and he lost his sense of fun.






Presently
FROST INC.


"We really need to upgrade our company Mr Frost." My personal secretary; Melanie says

"We've already done that. We have Horrendous Tech Department with Hiccup as the CEO and we have Toothiana's teeth department that even celebrities come to fix gold and diamond teeth, Aster's Easter surprises for Easter time, North's Christmas surprises, what else do we need?" I say and point to them as I speak.

"Yes Sir but the other companies are surpassing our high mark and this is as a result of them merging their companies. " Melanie continues and points to our chart.

"Jackson. What Melanie is trying to say is imagine this two companies very big ones merging to create an unstoppable company that will rule the world. " North says.

"Hmmm. Interesting what do you have in mind?" I say because North has a great influence even though I am the overall boss.

"Well Sir, we have The Arens and The Black." Melanie says as she looks from her board.

"Let me think about it." I say and use a flick of wrist to dismiss them all.

He dismisses them all and they all leave except Hiccup.

"So what do you think?" I ask my bestie friend since high school.

"I think Black is good but you've got to think of it." He says and looks at me.

"Yes yes true."  I say and see a missed call from Punzie.

I'm dead. She's gonna think I intentionally missed her call.

"Hic, gotta go bae called." I say and unlock my phone.

"You should hurry and marry her already. " Hiccup says and grins.

I roll my eyes and call her.

Punzie is my girlfriend from college and we've been together since then but I'm not ready to tie the knot with her now.

"Jackie! Why did you miss my call?" She screams from the other end of the phone.

"I was at a meeting Punz." I say irritatably .

"Okay. I wanted to tell you. I have got great news! This will require a romantic dinner." She says and I could feel her smirk. Our romantic dinner always ends in something interesting.

"What's so important that you can't tell me on the phone and it requires a romantic dinner?'" I ask .

"You'll know. Let's meet at AU gardens at 9pm." She says and I could feel movement.

"Okay bye!" I say and remove my phone from my ear.

"Bye!" I hear as the sound goes off.
