'Tonight's the night.' I thought, at 1 in the Monday morning. 'Everyone's asleep.'

I pulled on my black, torn up sweater, and my black pants.

I silently crept out of the room and down the stairs, grabbing the piece of paper with the address.

'Let's do this.' I thought, opening the door to the house.

'Aunty knows what I'm doing. I have to do it for the good of my family, especially now that theirs another mouth to feed.' I convinced myself, running out into the night.

I looked at the paper.

Windrow Sycamore 922

'That's where I need to go.' I thought.

I ran in the night, no one seeing a thing. I ran until I reached the neiborhood that Kika lived in.

'Wow, rich mansions.' I thought, going up to 992.

'This is it.' I thought, climbing up a tree and into an open window.

I silently crept through the house, making sure that even mice couldn't hear me.

I opened the door into the main hallway. I heard a munching sound, so I stopped.

I looked around and found a mouse, not paying any mind to me.

'Wow, I guess even the mouse can't hear me.' I thought, proud.

I snuck through the house and found what I was looking for.

The vault room.

I gingerly opened up the door and snuck to the big vault in the room. I put my ear to the door and turned it slowly, making sure I got the numbers right. When I did, the vault slowly clicked and revealed thousands of dollars.

I grabbed 10 bundles, put them in my coat and locked the safe.

'22, 19, 04.' I wrote down the numbers to the safe.

I stealthily snuck out into the hall, making sure I blended with the shadows. I climbed thought the open window, closing it on my way out, and climbed down as fast as I could. Once I was out, I ran away as fast as my legs could carry me.

"Yess!!! I did it. I hate doing this, but I need to. My family would die if I didn't keep doing this." I said outlould, happy, then guilty.

I ran all the way to my house. I opened the front door and walked in, closing it behind me, making it lock.

I walked up the stairs and I was about to go into the boys room when I heard thrashing coming from the girls room. I opened it slowly to find Sora, her face bright red, and twisting and turning in her bed. I ran to her and sat her up, hoping that I would help.

"Sota.." She called, in her sleep.

"Shh, its ok. Just breath and calm down." I said, and she took a deep breath. She sighed as she could breath again. I layed her, sitting upright, leaning against her closet walls.

'Hmm, what can I do to help her......aha! I got it.' I thought.

I ran into the boy's room and grabbed my pillow and the spare one. I ran back to the girls room. I sat Sora up, placed a pillow on each side of her and one behind her, and watched as she fell asleep sitting up.

'Ok, now that that's settled, I'm going to bed.' I thought, kissing Sora's head.

It was burning. I sighed and ran into the kitchen, grabbing the fever medication.

I walked back in to see Kika up, holding a wet rag to Sora's head.

"Thanks." I whispered to Kika, which I startled her.

"No problem." She whispered. "I need to help the little ones."

I smiled at that last bit and whispered

"Sit her up, please?" I said, looking at Sora slipping.

"Sure." She whispered, sitting Sora up again.

"Sora, time to take your medication." I said, in a feminine voice.

Sora smiled and opened her mouth. I placed the pill on her tongue. I pored water into her mouth and she swallowed the pill, still asleep.

"She was always sick as a little child and their mom couldn't afford that, so she left them with us. Sora's taken so much medication, she can do it in her sleep." I whispered, leading Kika back to her bed.

"Goodnight, brother." She said, snuggled up in bed.

"Call me bubby if your more comfortable with it. Brother is for Soshi, Miyu, Ryuta, and Moka." I told her, kissing her forehead. "Wake me up if Sora gets worse."

"I will." She said, sleepily.

I yawned and got up.

"I'm heading to my room. Theirs a bathroom in here if you need it. Its the one decorated 'toilet.'" I said, usuing jazz hands, gaining a chuckle out of her.

"Goodnight, Kika." I told her.

"Goodnight." She said, before I closed her door.

I crawled back to the boys room, shutting the girls room door. I was so tired, I almost didn't make it to my bed.

'Sleeeeeep!!!' My mind screamed.

I managed to open my closet door, climb in, and get under the covers. And as soon as my head hit the pillow, I was out like a light.
