Maya and Josh were looking at maps of the whole US but was unsure what to actually do.
Where Maya was from she didn't know.
Just that it was some small place.
Josh exhaled walking over to the kitchen as Maya pulled her backpack closer.

"Maybe there is something in here which will help," Maya said.
"It's worth a shot but I don't..."
"Josh," Maya said causing him to come closer.

In her hand she was holding a old picture of a place where there were lots of people.
It was a old park but behind it there was a name.

"That's a park in Wisconsin. That is not far from here so we can try to go there first. It's a good start," Josh said and Maya smiled as she looked further into the backpack finding a letter.
"What is it?" Josh asked.
"A letter," Maya said as she started to read it.

"Eric is my brother. Okay let's go to New York first," Josh said and Maya nod.
