Thud!!
The sudden sound of door being harshly opened made Evan stumble upon the chore he had been practicing. He turns around to see a over smiling Shane entering inside.
"The hell man! You could have just entered slowly. What is the rush about?" The now fuming Evan retorts being pissed of Shane acting weird these days.
"Yah! Did you finish your practice?" Shane asked while Evan looks at him from the large mirror placed in front for practice. "Just a little left. Why?"
"Nothing. Just wanted to have our bro time like we did before. I just miss those days." Shane said shrugging while Evan just nods.
"Then lets go for one. Shall we?" Evan asked making Shane surprised. He nods his head smiling like an idiot. "But what about your practice?" He asked. "Its okay. I can continue later. Don't ruin my mood before I change my decision." Evan said making Shane grin widely.
...
"Where shall we go?" Shane asked being bored walking along the park where they always hanged out. "Umm. We can't go far tho." Evan replied which Shane nods agreeing. "Lets go to the street down the city. Like before how we used to do."
"But isn't it crowded? What if we get caught. Manager will kill me if that happened." Evan says concern growing for his dear life. He knows how his manager can get fierce from soft person. And for sure he is scared to see that side.
He will kill me for sure.
He thinks before agreeing to Shane who was begging for him to accompany him down the city. While Shane beams happily imagining his old days where they both used to play a lot in the streets. And even dance when ever they feel like. Them being noticed by some people for their frequent performance. He loved all those moment.
Here they both were covering themselves within the crowd to protect their identity. With mask and hood covering them it was barely possible for anyone to recognise them.
They played around laughing and enjoying their moments. They entered few gaming houses and enjoyed what they had missed since long. Goofing around and playing around they came up to a street which was too crowded and there was someone performing.
They both went closer and saw two boys dancing around. When they saw them dancing they both went in flashback where they were both like them once. They saw themselves in those two boys. They watched the show which wet eyes and warm heart. They felt alive once again.
Soon the crowd cleared and they two to went along their way. But Evan was feeling much more than that. He felt as if someone was eyeing him. But when he looked around he saw none. Just the head of people walking away. He then turned his head around but then he caught a glimpse of someone. He stopped and turned around again to confirm once again to make sure if he was imagining.
But he saw no-one or someone who he was eagerly waiting to see.
Am I imagining? Am I okay?
That was what he asked himself when he was not sure if he did imagine or really saw. He was lost in his deep thoughts glancing the way he imagined someone .... that someone who is Evelyn.
"Evan!! Evan!!" ..."hu-h? Umm--? Yea.." He replied stuttering after he was broken out of his deep trance. He found himself being jerked by Shane who was eyeing him concerned.
"You okay? What are you looking at?" He asked now eyeing the way which Evan was looking at continuously. "No.. nothing. I just felt like I saw someone." "Who?" Shane replied confused. "No one. I couldn't figure out. Maybe I was imagining. Yea I guess." He said more like explaining himself than to Shane. As for sure he was more confused then Shane was.
But the one thing he made sure was the hope of finding her. Tho it might be imagination but he had told himself to find her as fast as he can. For her.. her family. Mostly for himself. But he was not sure why?
Do I really like her? Or am I feeling responsible?
Again with the same question he comes up with every time he thinks of her. He was not sure of himself. He was not sure what he felt. What he wants? He just was sure of one thing that-- she is alive and he needs to find her.
"Evan?! What is going on in your mind?" Shane questioned finding his friend lost in his thoughts and that made him worry. He wanted to know what did he saw that resulted him to be this lost. But knowing how he is he let it slide and decided to play along. He wanted Evan to come up to him himself not with force. He know the result of using force on him. He would just go further far- just opposite of what should be.
"No.. I am fine. Lets head back. I am sure manager must be worrying. " Evan continued with the hope of diverting Shane's attention to other subject which he does.
"Okay. Lets go then." Shane says back. Then they both head back.

"Mom!!! I am home!!!" Yells the girl who just showed up. "Evelyn! Is this the time to show up. Didn't I ask you to come early. I told you Rick's family will be coming over." Her mother retorts back making her scrunch her face in disgust.
"Mom!! I hate their daughter. I said I won't be home. " she says making her ways upstairs. "Yah!! You should at least respect her parents. She is your brother's friend tho." She heard her mother still yelling from downstairs.
"Yea.. yea. Mom. Next time." She says entering inside her room. You let yourself fall down on your bed. You groan stretching your body tired. It was indeed a long day for her. She had spent her day all roaming around the city to pass time not wanting to head home soon.
She smiled affectionately remembering someone whom she saw during her walk. Someone who she loved. Her Idol. She was in her thoughts when the door burst open making her jump in fear. She saw her brother running towards her with an expression she couldn't comprehend.
"Wow.. wow. What is it?" She said when she found her brother standing in front of her with his arms folded around his chest and face which screams danger. Instead of replying he just huffed out breath and took a seat on the edge of the bed.
"Yah! At least you should have told me you were leaving .... I would have joined you." He said making me laugh. I know how much of a bitch she is. And we both will do our best to avoid her.
"I thought she was your friend." She said smirking making him scoff. " Yea my ass befriends her." He said making her laugh out loud. While they both did ... soon they went silent still smiling.
"You don't know how I escaped today. She is such a leech I swear." He said making a disgusting expression.
"Yea and I hate how she manage her two face. I feel like vomiting." She said making him nod his head in approval.
"Then? What did you do today?" He said. "Umm.. I did roam around the city. And I saw him today." She said jumping happily.
"Who?" He asked confused. "Guess?" She replied. He acted as if he was thinking but he looked at her and said "umm.. I give up. Who?" She giggled and grinned widely.
"Evan.. Evan Grimes. I saw him."
