Re-opening Scars

With a perplexed expression, Rose asked Raph saying "Is that your house?" while pointing at a rundown house that just came to her view.

"No, it's a friend's"

She nodded as both of them approached the house. Only to see that Raph was taking her to the back of the house. She sat stopped right in her tracks and said "Where are we going? I'm scared"

Rose couldn't help but feel unsafe in this new environment she was in. Raph had already assured her that as long as she was with him no harm would befall her but still.

The gloomy air in the environment made her stay alert, the hairs on her skin doing the same. It felt as if everything was watching them even to the very air they were breathing right now.
