He seemed not so happy about the attention Alpha Atlas put on me. ”May I ask what’s the purpose of our visit then,I believe it is a great chance for us to build some connection between the North and the South. For hundreds of years the North had kept independent, but we all know it’s not a good thing for both of us. ” My father looked directly into Alpha Atlas’s eyes and showed he is serious and he was concerned about the answer of his question. “I don’t think the North and the South can build a connection just because we meet each other, Alpha Rick.”

I ask pretending I don’t worry about her sometimes. “Back to the North, back to Leo and the other two muppets and figuring out where my man is.

If they had only known. The town’s two sides had been forced into a rivalry from the early generations. The civil war between the two had made the residents hate each other, even now, hundreds of years later. After the North of the town won the fight, it got divided in two: the Northside and the Southside. The development and the manner the citizens acted were greatly influenced by the side they lived on.

The schools were great, the high school had a nice reputation, and most of the teens were accepted to the New Field Community colle

"This time of year is usually pretty cold but I promise that Summer is absolutely amazing!" Beta Ian interjected, a small smile on his lips as he gazed at me through the viewing mirror. I appreciated his effort to break the ice within the silent car ride. I was stumped, not quite sure what to say to my mate who seemed to be equally engrossed in his own thoughts. Turning back to the Beta, I granted him a wide smile, glad for the interesting facts about the North. "It really is cold. The South is usually a little warmer than this during the cold season. Seems I'll have to adapt."

**On the Horizon** The days blurred into each other in the best possible way. Lillian and Nicholas continued their journey north, following the rugged coastline, stopping whenever a small town or hidden cove caught their attention. Each new place felt like a discovery—a piece of the world they hadn’t seen before, each offering its own quiet beauty.

His smile faltered and we stared at each other for milliseconds that, to me, could be compared to hours. I tried to pull myself together -even with the bad feeling of tightness in my chest- and resumed my steps, no longer staring at him.
