And that's how on that fateful day, I ended up in front of Ms. Wong's house.
The sky was black, the day was over.
But mine was just beginning.
My heart raced.
"Are you sure?", asked Tristan.
I took a deep breath and let it out.
"I have no other choice"
I looked at him. He nodded his head.
Let's do this...
I was risking the lives of Ms. Wong and Mi, but this is good for everyone if all goes well.
I hope...I hope...I hope.
"Let's go"
Heartthumpingthumpingthumping we rushed up the stairs.
I rang the doorbell. Ms. Wong... Jennie, although I never call her that... opened the door.
"Hell's bells look who's decided to show her face. You look like you got run over by a train, girl".
No... did I?
But there wasn't time for explanations.
"Ms. Wong, I need your help"
She looked surprised for a moment then flicked her hand in my companion's direction.
"Who's the boy?"
"He's my friend"
