Fifteen minutes had passed; I still don’t know how to go home. I keep on staring at Matet and looking at the surrounding back and forth. I look at the people passing by. I don’t know any of these people, I don’t even know how to talk to them and ask for help. If only Brandon was here, if only my big brothers were here. “I’m in a big trouble here”, I said to myself. I feel I want to cry, I can feel the tears already. I’m hopeless.

 

“Are you okay?” A guy was standing in front of me looking concern. I just look at him. He was tall about 5’9 I guess, short hair and was wearing a jersey shirt and jogging pants “You look lost.”

“Literally, I am lost”, I said wiping my tears away. “Actually, my dog and I..”. I added looking hopeless.

“Well, how can I help you?” The guy asked me sincerely. “Well, where do you live?”

“I don’t know the address”, I said. I really don’t remember actually our address. I was still 7 years old when I left the country. “I left my cell phone at home, so I can’t contact my mom or dad”.

He took something out from his pocket and gave it to me, it was his cell phone. “Here, use mine.” He offered it to me, reaching from where I was sitting.

 

I was hesitant at first. I look at the phone and Matet back and forth. It took me three minutes until I get the phone from his hand and dialed Brandon’s number. I give quick information on where I was and that Matet was with me. I ended the call and gave it to the guy.

 

“Here you go, thank you….”

“Jacob. Jacob Anderson.” He took the cell phone with his left hand and reached out his right hand.

“Thank you, Jacob. I’m Kyla Bradley”, I said as I reached my left hand to his right.

 

Jacob and I talked for a while as I wait for my brother. He’s a life saver as I can say. 15 minutes after, a blue Mercedes Benz parked in front of us. Justin came out and look at me and Jacob.

“Hi Jacob. So, I assumed you help my sister.” Justin said as he walks towards us.

“Yes Doc, I saw her here crying already”, Jacob said with a smile in the face.

“Well, thank you for helping my sister.” Justin said and looks at me. “Let’s go now, Mom and Dad are worried already.” He said to me and let Matet get in the car. I followed him back to the car and take a glimpse on Jacob.

“Thank you Jacob, you’re my life saver.” I said happily and smile. He smiles back.

 

In the car I got scolded by Justin. But it was light since he understands why I don’t know how to go home. “Next time, don’t forget your phone. What if you’ll get lost next time?” Justin muttered while driving. I was just nodding and I can’t argue with him. We were back at home. Butler George was at the front porch waiting, he’s worried. He greeted us as we came out from the car. We went straight to the dining room where it was just in time for breakfast.

 

“Good you’re here! Thank you Justin.” Mom said thanking Justin as she hugged me.

“It’s nothing, for my sister’s safety. We were preparing for breakfast when you called.” Justin replied as he took his seat in the table. I went to take my sit. After eating, I went straight to my room to take a shower and changed my clothes. I saw my phone in the drawer where I left it. I went to the computer and check my email. Someone knocked at the door. It was the usual knock from Brandon. I let him come in. Brandon came in and sat in the couch.

 

“Hunter mentioned  to me there’s a skate park near the park. You want to check it out?” Brandon said as he plays with Matet. “I know your dying to look at it”.

“I am, but before that, I need to settle some things first.” I said as I open my luggage since I haven’t unpacked yesterday. “Beside, I need to get familiar in the place...”

“So you won’t get lost next time?” he said teasing me about what happened just this morning.

“Forget my cell phone, stare at Matet, do nothing until someone came and offer help and be my savior. Yeah, and I would never do that again.” I said looking dumb at myself. Brandon laughed at me and then keeps quiet for a moment.

“If you just come here to tease me, you can step outside now.” I said irritated as he tease me.

“Awe! Don’t be like that Kyle, I’m your twin. What if I’ll treat you chocolate ice cream?” Brandon persuades me after teasing me.

“Just because you’re older than by me by three minutes and 10 seconds doesn’t mean you can tease me that way.Now, get out.”

“Chocolate fondue?”

“I’m not buying it!”

“Okay, okay. It won’t do that again. I promised”, Brandon assured me with a grin. “But if….” He tries to continue.

“Do you want to say goodbye to your beloved Green Lantern action figure?” I try to threat him.

“Okay! No more teasing! Just don’t touch my collection.” Brandon promised.

 

Seconds after, someone knocked the door. “Kyla, Brandon? Are you two there?”

Brandon open the door, mom was looking at us.

“Your father wants to talk to you about Adamson. He’s at his office, waiting.” Mom told us and went downstairs.

 

We went to our dad’s office which was located on the right wing of the house. I felt like I’m going to the court with my brother begging the judge that I should not be sentence for imprisonment. I can’t help thinking like that, is it my fault that his office was that scary? It was dark and bookshelves filled the wall. There was a huge window in front that was behind dad’s table. There was a chandelier in the ceiling. Dad was sitting in his office chair where he was waiting for us. We sat like business like and I’m not good in formal gestures. It was almost noon when dad stop talking about Adamson. He was interrupted by a phone call from work.

 

There’s not much things to do. Brandon and I were killed with boredom. We called Derek, Violett and Joanna to hang with us. We meet at the park where I got lost. Brandon told them what happened this morning and they all laughed at me. We hang at the mall and played in the arcade. I was on my way back to the arcade when I bump to someone. I was surprised seeing Jacob again and happy. We had a quick chat since someone was waiting for him while I was on my way meeting my brother and my friends.
