Epidemic of Extinction

Chapter 2

*Jordan

I was caught off guard by the offer but I went along with it she seemed nice enough. I felt compelled to tell her of my poor and dark past. I had recently lost my mother, she was the last of the family I had. She was the only family I had and now she was gone too. Stupid epidemic. I had no where to go so I decided to go along with it. She had a sad past too. Except she had 1 last thing to take care of, Madison Grace Smith.

We rode back my in my truck. It was old but it was functional. Wow. She lived far out. I walked into the house. OMG. It was huge! The living room was a dark turquoise blue. With hints of beige. It was very open concept. I moved into my room when I heard Macy singing. She was calming the baby. She had a voice like silk. I moved to the doorway. And let her finish her song. Eventually she noticed me. She looked at me awkwardly, and just stood there.

She is so pretty. She had silvery grey eyes and brown hair. She was very lean. Nobody could ever deny her beauty. I was staring. She started feeling even more awkward and she said

"Why are you staring at me"

"Because of your beauty " I replied

She suppressed a smile, then left the room nervous as could be, Then I heard something in the backyard. I walked back there and found a 13 year old boy sitting there digging for something. I grabbed him and put him in a choke hold.

"Why are you here!" I exclaimed.

" I thought the house was empty! I'm sorry! I was just scavenging!" He said.

I heard the door open and looked into Macy's eyes. She said,

"Bring him inside."

So I did and I let him out of my arms he looked like he had been nearly beaten to death. Macy tended to his wounds while I sat with Madison.She was very careful with his cuts. Eventually when she was done she took Madison to put her to bed. Meanwhile, the boy just sat there. When Macy came back we questioned him.

"Why are you cut so bad?" She questioned.

"My dad beat me and my family but the rest of then are... deceased." He said calmly.

"What's your name?"I asked

"Carter,"he replied.

"How'd your mom die?" Macy asked.

"Drug abuse " he said.

"Dad?"

"Epidemic"

"Oh, well do you need a place to stay?"Macy asked, already knowing the answer.

"Yes."

"Well, you can stay here."

"Really? I would love to stay here."

I then went to bed and listened to Macy's crying. I wasn't going to sleep tonight I guess so I went into Macy's bedroom and calmed her until she fell asleep. Then I went back to my room to get some restless sleep.
