You’re brother was and is your only comfort...you sob as you get to your feet reaching for your coat,as you finish rapping your scarf around your neck you run out the door not bothering to tell your parents where you’re going.Furthermore,why should you?You just discovered that you’re brother is missing and was possibly abducted,you have every right to run off.As you sped through the woods you bumped into something large and solid.Quickly getting to your feet,you mutter a quiet ‘sorry’.Just as you were about to run off the person you ran into grabs your wrist,while trying to wriggle free you hear a gentle, familiar voice call “Aiko what’s wrong?Is everything alright?” You look up to see your classmate Xavia lowering down to eye-level with you as not to intimidate you.Quickly shaking your head she pulls you into a tight yet gentle hug, “There, there let it all out...” She ushered as you lay your head on her chest crying “Is it about Xin?” You couldn’t speak but gave a small nod hoping she wouldn’t continue,taking the hint she didn’t touch on the subject again and she continued, “do you want to walk with me to calm down?We don’t have to talk you just don’t exactly look like you want to be alone right now.”she gave me a gentle,comforting smile,not pity full.She was genuinely concerned about you.And so,you spent the night just walking in a comfortable silence.It was dawn before you both realised the time.You bid farewell before hugging and walking in opposite directions.And so,that night was the last one you would ever see Xavia or Xin again...

Or was it?
