Getting Away

Strangers (Chapter 3)

The lady walked closer to me as I thought of anything else to tell the Family.

" Hello Rain i am Cynthia, I am married to Anthony Rivers the man over there..." she said he nodded to me and then she continued

"... this is my eldest son who is 19 and his name Seth Rivers and next to him is my 16 year old son Blake Rivers." Seth nodded to me while Blake stared at me with a smile on his face.

" I have two young ones at home Ryan Rivers and Lila Rivers they are both 3 years old." Cynthia continued now talking to Blake asking if he has a photo of the twins on him. He took out his wallet and walked over to me with the wallet open to a picture showing he handed me the wallet so i could get a better look at the kids.

"They are adorable Cynthia!" i said. Handing Blake his wallet

"So, sweet heart I was wandering where you were headed to get away from this man you speak of." Cynthia asked

"Anywhere is better than there. I really uh... don't know actually. just Away. i don't even know what city, state, country I'm in. I assume I'm in the Uniter States but Im not all that sure." After i said that I was looking down at my hands that where in my lap fiddling my fingers

"Well we are in California and that's in the U.S.A. " Blake said, thats when i hear a squealing noise coming from beside me when i looked up i saw Cynthia Jumping up and down looking at all the boys with a look in her eyes that she had an idea.

"I need a word with you three out in the hall. We will be right back Rain" they all exited the room to do god knows what but i will find out sooner or later.
As I waited for them I got up and walked over to the bathroom that was connected to the room.i didn't here the door open to my room or the people walking in until I was on my way out of the bathroom. I was opening the door thinking 'nobody is out there' the next thing I know is some one is standing in front of me and I let out a scream and jump 3ft in the air clutching my chest trying to slow my breathing back to a normal rhythm.

"Don't do that ever again! You guys scared the crap out of me!" I shouted at them while all of them where laughing there hearts out.
Cynthia was closest to me and also one of the first to stop laughing.

" Rain, my husband and i would like to know if you would like to come live with us. Just a warning we were planning on moving to Seattle, WA because Im needed over there more than here. " I thought about it. I can't intrude on there family, I don't want them to get hurt because of me, and they would be safe away from me.

"Rain, don't you dare think you are intruding on this family, you won't hurt us we can help protect you. We can
keep you safe. So don't worry about it okay." Blake stated

"I spoke my thoughts didn't I?" He nodded "ops"

"I'm not your Responsibility Blake or any of you guys. I can be on my own" I tried to tell them but I didn't win

"THAT'S IT! Rain your coming with us to Seattle! And it's final" Anthony yelled while leaving the room
