No.3 The Mystery
A smaller girl emerged from the woods.
Dark hair with lovely curls, a face that speaks of cuteness and wisdom, the strikingly familiar rainbow ribbon around her left wrist.
“Sherry?” I asked before I realized my mistake. The girl had brown eyes, not those green ones with flecks of gold that I shared with my sister. I glanced at the masked girl, who didn’t respond.
Portia took small steps towards me, not in the skipping way like Sherry usually did. She looked up at me. Then she burst into tears.
Out of nowhere, a chill went up my spine. Only when someone was killed in a Hunger Games would Sherry have cried. She’s no crybaby. Neither was Portia, I can tell by her branch-torn outfit and toughened feature. Then what?
Portia pushed something she’s been clutching tightly into my hands. It was wrapped in brown paper. Then before I could say anything, she turned around and ran back towards the woods. I heard her sobs before she disappeared from my sight.
“She still couldn’t face you. But after all...you must remember it wasn’t her fault.” The masked girl sighed. “Remember, don’t let your family see this. Return at this time tomorrow if you decide to trust us.”
“I didn’t understand.” I whispered.
“You will.” She smiled again, signaling me to leave. “And you must.”
As I walked back towards the direction of home, I saw Portia had returned. She buried her face in the girl’s long cloak. The setting sun cast bright shades of gold on both of them. The blue eyes staring at me were surprisingly soft.
I hired a car, spared my parents worry by telling them I had been dropping in at a friend’s and forgot the time, and locked myself in my bedroom. I looked at the little package, and doubt finally arouse within me. Why would two complete strangers, one of whom resembled the lost Sherry, give me something in such a strange way? What are they trying to accomplish?
The answer must be in the package. I tore the wrapping paper apart.
