Raymond was walking around, looking for nothing in particular, really he was dragged there by his sister. He miserably moped about the shop, stopping every now and again by a mirror.<br/>What is wrong with me? Why do I look so different from other people? He watched as a passing shopper crossed behind him. He narrowed his eyes at her, trying to place his fingers on the difference, but she was different from other people as well.<br/>There was a sort of glow from her. It was as if she was the opposite of him. Where he absorbed light, she emitted it, as she had swallowed the sun and it was trying to escape her small body. He quickly looked away, when he heard his sisters footfalls.<br/>"Ray, what are you staring at?" She asked, standing next to him and looking in the mirror, a bag of the clothing she just bought in her hand.<br/>"Nothing. Thought I saw someone I knew before." He answered, flicking his eye to the place where the girl had been standing. She had moved from where she had stood. He quickly looked back to his sister before she noticed someone else had caught his attention. "You ready to go yet?" He sighed. His stomach was getting empty and he wanted to fill it.<br/>"Yep. Come on, kid. Let's go home."<br/><br/>Once they were outside the store, Ray froze as he crossed the threshold. The shopping center was packed.<br/>"Oh, I hate people." He muttered, glancing around, looking for a break in the mass of bodies where he could fit through. His sister, undaunted by crowds of people, shoved her way through the throngs. With a heavy sigh, Ray pulled his jacket tighter to his body and followed in the wake of his bold sister. "Marye. Hey, wait up!" Man, shes fast for someone with short legs. Where'd she go now?<br/>As he looked around for her, people flowed around either side of him. Getting agitated, he felt someone collide into him from behind. He spun around and caught the girls hand, then, in his surprise letting it go accidently dropping her on the floor.<br/>"I'm so sorry." He said, reaching down to grab her things, as she was already getting up and dusting herself off. In a spur-of-the-moment decision, he stuck his hand out between them. "I'm Ray. You didn't happen to see a short, blue haired girl with a corset and converse walking about, have you?" He looked at the floor, shuffling his feet, anxious to get moving and out of this crowd. "I lose my sister and its a long walk home." He lied.<br/>Marye and Ray had made the choice to live where their work took them. The car they moved around in was a little too nice for a 16 year old looking girl and a 25 year old looking boy to be cruising around in. They also didn't look too much alike, so the weird looks they got were endless.<br/>A hand grabbed on to Rays upper arm and hauled him off. "Well, nevermind. I found her. Bye, be safe and watch that glow. It'll get you in a lot of trouble one day." He called as Marye dragged him to the car. Before the crowd swallowed the girl, he raised his arm and gave a little wave.<br/><br/>Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
