On the weekends, Amy would often find herself doing nothing these days. She was too afraid to go out on her own ever since Raven had abducted her and Stacy. Even if the fifteen-year-old teenager did want to go somewhere… who could she go with? When thinking about this, her heart just sank deeper.
Today was just one of those days when Amy felt like her life was cursed. Even more than usual. Her eyes were puffy and slightly sore underneath due to how much she had been rubbing them, and she had nearly emptied out the box of tissues on the table.
'Ah damn... Gary is going to get annoyed at me for wasting this many tissues.' Amy thought, looking at the box. Imagining his angry reaction, she couldn't help but chuckle at the thought. Thinking about her brother was the only thing that cheered her up these days.
'Where did Gary even go? Was it just a coincidence that he asked me about Stacy yesterday? Did he somehow already know that she's… dead.' Unwilling to keep thinking about her former best friend, who was now deceased, Amy tried to focus on something else.
Unfortunately, her mind jumped from one bad thing to another, in this case the bloody clothes she had found. As much as she tried not to think about them, throughout the day, whenever the girl would end up using her own wardrobe, she ended up looking at her brother's where the clothes had been left.
'Why didn't he bury them or burn them by now? Did he keep them here because he wanted me to know?' The high school girl sulked, feeling the heavy burden of having to keep such an important secret. Usually, it was bearable, but with today's news, it felt far heavier than before.
At that point, Amy had gotten up and grabbed her phone. Perhaps it was because she was trying to keep her mind off Stacy's death, but her mind was now filled with Gary. She wanted to know what had happened that day.
Amy didn't plan to get involved in whatever he was doing, but she at least wanted to learn the truth. No matter what he had done, she knew that her brother must have done it for her, but at least she wanted to share that burden with him… even if he might never learn that she did.
'Besides, knowing him, he might be out doing something crazy to try to cover this all up… Yeah, if I leave him on his own, he's just going to get in more trouble. I have to help my brother out!' The teenage girl tried to justify her behaviour.
Scrolling through her contacts list, there was one person who Amy believed would have an idea of what Gary had been up to recently. If she was lucky, then he might even know the truth! Someone who was as close to Gary as she was.
The high school girl wasn't in a waiting mood, though, so rather than send a text, she had decided to give him a call instead. After a few rings, the other side had picked up.
