Snippet #2388848

Kenleigh dropped the light from his face, her eyes narrowing. He didn’t seem like he would hurt her, but those who are corrupt didn’t always look the part. She shifted as he rambled on, a bemused smirk crossing her face.

“Oh, I’m very real. I won’t shoot you, either.” She said. “ But if you so much as touch me, your dead.” The warning came out harsher than she meant and she cringed. After all, she hadn’t seen another person in almost a year. She sighed, shifting her feet.

“Wait- You said I had a guitar…” Her face clouded in confusion, “But I don’t own a guitar.” Kenleigh had heard a guitar earlier, very quietly. That’s when she found this man.

“Follow me.” She said, turning around and making her way back towards her little living area. The girl had to blink at the light that filled the room after her eyes had adjusted to the blackness. Looking up, she watched the rain pelt the windows that gave her the light.

The stray barked at the man, who she still didn’t know his name. She get glancing at him, making sure he didn’t do anything that would put her into a bad situation.

“If you saw a girl with a guitar and I heard it, then someone else is here.” She said, grabbing her bag off of her cot. “Looks like my wish came true.”

The possibility of seeing two people almost made her a little giddy. She didn’t know how the other person would respond. The girl grabbed the hair band that sat on her wrist and tied her hair up in a quick bun so it was out of the way. They needed to find the other person.
