One Month Later

Brendon had grown accustomed to his new life, and he was happy as ever. He was being home schooled by his mother to make up for the nine years of education he missed. Jude and him were almost as close as if they were tied together. Brendon and his older brother shared a room now, and

Jude introduced him to quite a lot of interesting music that Brendon enjoyed. Bands by the names of "Blink-182", "Fall Out Boy", "My Chemical Romance." All very enjoyable.

"Bren, do you want to go the grocery store with me? Mum has the flu and can't go herself." Jude asked, leaning against the white of their doorway. Brendon shrugged and joined him, placing down his new cell phone he received as a present.

They drove over to the grocery store, listening to Jude's music. Brendon still found it somewhat difficult to being in such a vastly different surrounding. When they arrived, the boys chatted as they grabbed items here and there from the shelves, until Brendon noticed a certain girl.

"Huh. That's weird. That looks like Talia," Brendon pointed out, "I told you about her." Jude shrugged,

"Weird." Brendon stared at the girl as she walked away, and as she turned a corner with whoever she was walking with, Brendon saw her face.

Talia.

Brendon ran and tried to find her. She was no where to be seen. He looked in the next aisle, and the next. And the next, and the next. No where. She somehow disappeared, but Brendon was determined to find her.
