25 things to do before I die ༄ m.m

chapter 5

"Christoph catch!"

Jackie desperately tried make the poor dog to chase after the rubber Ball, but with no luck.

"Hey , Jacks I need to go to Mrs. Admons's, like, now."
Melanie said and took the ball from the floor.

"And please don't break the house," she said while her eye trailing across the messy room, "I still need a place to leave in."

Jackie rolled her eyes "haha so funny."

"I was deadly serious." Melanie protest and threw the rubber Ball on her.

"Don't you worry," the girl replied with a smile as the puppy barked on a rabbit shape pillow.

Melanie didn't like that.

"Cm'ere Christoph" Jackie tapped on her knees as to show the puppy where should he run to.

"Okay then. Bye." Melanie escaped before Jackie could say anything.

The puppy thing wasn't hard.
Actually Jackie really grew attached to the dog.

And Melanie just loved him.

Jackie even announced that now little Christoph is part of the family.
A minute after doing that, the puppy jumped on her, excited, as he really understood what she was saying.

Melanie smiled at the thought.
Age knocked on Mrs. Admons door and waited.

Usually, Mrs. Admons would call her to come in, the smell of the chocolate chip cookies filling the room and Mrs. Admons hugging Melanie and thank her again and again.

Saying how grateful she is for her.

Melanie was so happy after that.

But now, the door didn't open and no sound was heard.

Melanie didn't know if she need to be worried.

Maybe she's just went out, for a walk?

But Melanie knew that Mrs. Admons was too tired, ("and old" the lady use to mutter,) to go for a walk.

Even the shopping Melanie was doing for her.

The only time the lady get out the house is for her grandchildren.

But she would call to mention that to Melanie.

Melanie hesitated before opening the door, who never been locked.

"Hallo?" Melanie's voice was shaking with stress.

As she walked in she noticed there wasn't any sweet smell as usual.

She walked into the kitchen, to find two men in there.

She was too confused to ask.

Finally she dared to speak, "urm.. excuse me ?"

The two men, who were hugging until now, one of them even let out a soft sobs, turn around and faced her.

The sobbing one had a black shaggy hair, his chocolate eyes were red, full of tears, he wore a black work suite, he was only a bit taller than the other one, who had blue icey eyes, he wore a black v- shirt and had messy blonde hair.

"Who are you?" The sobber asked shakily, the blue eyed man frowned as looking at her making him a headache.

"I- I'm m-melanie" she spat out the words "I'm helping Mrs. Admons who-?"

"Melanie? Melanie Martinez? Rosa's young friend?"

Hearing Mrs, Admons's name was so weird.
