Myra took a few steps back in shock. Her head banged loud as the doctor’s words sunk in.Blood wasn’t pumping to Mum’s brain? What exactly does that mean?“What’re you trying to say, doctor?” Kevin spoke up beside her, grabbing Myra steady.“We still have to perform some tests on her to diagnose her real condition. Her passing out was probably due to a lot of stress. We advise that you keep calm till the real results come out.” The doctor added and made his way down the hall.Tears were already rolling down Myra’s cheeks. She slumped to the floor with a thud “It’s all my fault, I should have looked after her better. I always work and spend days without calling her. It’s all my fault.” She sobbed hard. “I’m never going to forgive myself if she dies, Kevin.”Kevin crouched in front of her, taking her hands gently. “It’s okay, Myra. Mum is going to be okay.

"Common dear, come along to the park with us?" Mrs Brooklyn muttered knocking on Nina's bathroom door. She'd locked herself in her room since she arrived yesterday. Even refusing to have dinner. She'd ran into the bathroom when they forced the door open a while ago. "Do you want to be all alone? It's gonna be fun Nina. Common". A boy shrieked waving a banner up in the air. The Annual Holly Festival was going to begin in the next few hours. It was to take place in the town's Park. Mrs Brooklyn wanted Nina to participate so she'll make some friends. She's too quiet. "Alright" Nina said weakly. "I've got to dress first ok? I'll meet you in the garage in fifteen minutes"Mrs Brooklyn sighed and walked out of the room tugging her over excited son along to give Nina some privacy.

Lisa walked to the wardrobe, she opened it and gasped! She ran her hands through the clothes, it was filled with clothes suitable for strippers. She backed off as realization hit her! They probably want to use her as a sex slave!As anxieties flooded her, Lisa willed herself to be calm. Her eyes caught a small compartment in the wardrobe.
