HAVE A RENEWED HOPELouisa woke up from her bed the next morning.She got out of her room and headed to Grandma's room.After three consecutive knocks, without any response, she opened the door and barged in.Grandma Anderson was not in there.The bed was disorganised, and so was the whole room.She looked around.That was so unlike grandma.

Have you heard from Rebecca or any of the others?" Grandma asked Louisa. The answer was obvious, but she just wanted to be sure.Louisa shook her head in the negative." Nothing from them yet.I bet they are mad at us.I can really tell.I wonder what we are going to do about them, or should I say, what they are going to do to us." Louisa said, shaking her head." They won't do anything to you, I am their target, I am their main focus I called for the arrest and prosecu

Hi, Louisa, how are you doing?" Mr David responded with a smile." I'm good, sir.Where are you heading towards?. Where is your car?"
