I thought you had pills for it
Answer my question

Wanna meet up at the park?
Sure, why not
I'll be there in 15
Hopefully I don't caught by my sisters lol
What about your parents?
My dad 's on a business trip. What about YOUR parents, huh?
Not this again... See you in a few
Fine
I frowned at my phone. This did seem a little fishy. Every time I came over, Chan was home alone. Maybe his parents are always at work?
Quickly scrambling around my room, I found a black mask that covered up most of my face(including the dried tear streaks on my red cheeks). A black ring hat I had found lying around helped complete the outfit. I tip-toed out my room, every step making a small squeaky sound.
It was nearly 4am as I snuck out of our house into the chilly air. I inhaled a breath of the frosty oxygen outside. The snow that had fallen on the trees were beginning to thaw a bit, hinting a glimmer of spring. As I arrived at the playground, memories of youth begged to push through my mind. I reminisced my childhood, filled with carefree joy, where my greatest problems were swinging higher on the swing set.
I traced the cold rubber on the seat with my finger before sitting down on it to wait for the older. I held onto the metal chains, gently rocking myself back and forth in the silent breeze. My eyes were shut and my head was tilted back; I remembered to take a few seconds to just be mindful in the chaotic day.
After a couple enjoyable minutes, I heard a pair of tennis shoes jog toward me in the tanbark. I didn't open my eyes, continuing to savor the relaxing moment. There was no telling when the next one would be.
To my left, the ropes clanked together as weight was put on the swing. I finally blinked, letting the gust of wind make my eyes sting and mess up my hair.
"Felix."
"Chan."
Did he know his smiles warmed my heart?

My Dear Alice - A Dark Awakening
He’ll cross a lethal land to bring her back home. But is she willing to be found? Appalachian Wasteland, 2072. Jamie Henderson wants to forget all about his ex-girlfriend Alice. Except this nonviolent fixer has been hired to find her after she went missing in the ongoing AI-controlled war. But his quest through the hostile post-apocalyptic terrain turns deadly when a roadside raider attack sees him captured by a terrifying matriarchal clan. Stranded in dangerous territory, Jamie’s jaw drops when he discovers his ex among their numbers. But with her personality split and scattered, his own survival will depend on reaching through her fragmented mind… Can this pacifist hunter make the truth known before he’s sentenced to death? My Dear Alice is a fast-paced companion story that bridges Seasons 1 and 2 of the gripping Cyber Overture dystopian series. If you like complex character studies, gritty worlds, and shocking twists, then you’ll love D. B. Goodin’s outlander opus. Note: This should be read after Sonorous. This story has been published, but I'm adding it here for Royal Road readers to enjoy.
