Nora laid on her bed trying to get some sleep. But no matter how long she tries, sleep seems to be miles away from her. Frustrated, she got up and walked to the window. She stared into space. She heard a knock on her door. She wondered who it could be. She was sure her mother would still be chatting with Lucas by now, and her father would probably be in the study with his head buried in piles of files. "Who is it?" She asked. "It's me," came the response from the other side of the door. She recognized the voice to be her father's. She wondered if she had perhaps done something wrong and was going to be scolded. "Come in dad," she said as she mentally prepared herself for what might happen next. The door creaked open and Alex walked in with a tray of food in his hands. She was a bit surprised by the gesture. She hurried to him and was quick to collect the tray from him. She placed it on the small table in front of the couch. She proceeded to sit on the couch. Alex sat beside her

She was quick to place her hand on her mouth to prevent her from screaming further. Her hair looked disheveled and her eyes looked so puffy. She ran to the bathroom. She came out after taking a bath and stared at herself in the mirror. She smiled at her reflection. She remembered how your g cared for her the previous night. She chuckled slightly.She got dressed and left the room. She made a mental note to avoid her mother at any costs. With this thought, she walked sneakily down the stairs."Going somewhere this early, Alice,"Alice halted midways as she heard her mother's voice. She bit her lip and cursed inwardly. She turned around slowly and saw her mother standing with arms crossed. "Without breakfast too? "Patricia said with an eyebrow raised."Good morning mum, I'm just heading to school," Alice said and forced a smile on her face. "Good mornin

Alice sat at her desk, looking confident and self-assured as she waited for the class to begin. Next to her, Nora sat quietly, her eyes fixed on the teacher's desk. The tension in the room was palpable, and the students could feel it in the air.Ms. Johnson stood up and began speaking, "Good morning, everyone! Today, we'll be starting a new science project…" she paused. "I've divided you all into groups of four," all the students groaned, revealing their disinterest. Ms. Johnson continued. "The groups will work together to complete the project. For this project, you'll be researching a local ecosystem. Each group will be assigned a different ecosystem, and you'll need to research its plants, animals, and other characteristics. You'll then write a report on your findings and present it to

He picked it up and made to open it before Nora snatched it from his hands."Give it to me me," she said."Fine," Fred raised his hands defensively. "Hey! That is not fine. You can't just snatch something from someone like that." Alice fired at Nora. She snatched the wallet from her hands. "Give it back," Nora yelled."No I won't," Alice said.

"Your fingerprints were found on this wallet," he said. "We need you to tell us how that happened."The friends looked at each other, their minds racing.

On the other side of town, Nora was facing her parents' reaction to the news."You should have told us you were going into the woods!" Nora's father said, his voice raised in anger. "We had no idea where you were!""I'm sorry," Nora said, tears in her eyes. "I didn't mean to worry you. I just wanted to explore a little.""You could have been hurt!" her mother said, her voice trembling. "What if something had happened to you?""But nothing did," Nora said, trying to stay calm "and I was only there for a school project, we already explained everything to you dad." "Your teacher asked you to go into the woods?" her mother asked, her eyebrows raised in disbelief."Not exactly," Nora said. "We were just doing a research project on local flora and fauna, and we wanted to see some of the plants up close.""That doesn't make it any better," her mother said. "You should have told us where you were going.""I'm sorry," Nora said again. "I promise I'll be more careful in the future.""We're goi

She approached Fred first."There has been an emergency," she whispered.Fred looked up from the book with a confused expression on his face."I'll explain everything later, alert Reggie and meet me in the chemistry lab. I'll go get Alice," she said and walked away from him."Why does it always have to be me who gets Reggie everytime?" He mumbled.Alice was so focused on her laptop that she didn't see Nora approaching.
