As Ollie and I walk out of Carla’s place, we notice two dark figures in front of the passenger side of the car. “Wait here.” He says I wait and watch Ollie inch closer to the figures by the car. One of the figures stand up and walks towards him. As it moves into the light, I begin to see that this figure is a young man. I run up next to Ollie thinking it might help being that he would no longer be alone. This guy’s skin is extremely pale and his hair looks bleached. He and Ollie stare at eachother in a perplexed manner. “Sulei? What are you doing here?” Ollie asks “I just needed to hang here for a while.” “Why?” “None of your buisness man.” The other figure stands up and walks quickly towards us. “Sulei, why are you so difficult?! …show more content…
His name is John and should not be able to foster anyone at all.” She explains. “What’s wrong with him? What does he do?” I find myself starting to pry. “He is a drug addict and alcoholic. The fact that he was able to get a foster licence is infuriating.” “He also beats me up if I don’t give him the money I make.” Suleiman adds. “Today he was so high on some kind of hardcore drug that he pointed a gun at my brother.

We all make our way in the car, but it then quickly fills with anxiety. “Can we stop by the mini-mart please. I need to get some stuff” “Seriously Sulei? Can’t you wait?” Asks Sybille. “No, that's why I’m asking genius! Why can’t you just shut up and―” “Yes we can go! We need to get stuff as well.” Ollie interrupts. We park and enter the store. Suleiman runs straight to the restroom which is probably the only reason why we are here. I grab some waters. Ollie grabs some chips. Sybille is overwhelmed with fear. As I walk towards her, she snaps out of it and whispers to me, “We need to get out of here fast.” “Why? What’s wrong?” I frantically say. “Shhh. John is over there.” She responds Right then, Suleiman walks out the bathroom. I tell Ollie that John is here and to quickly get to Souleman before he draws any attention to himself. Ollie quickly turns around to jog to Suleiman and... Ollie trips on a low shelf, knocking everything over causing a huge commotion.
