Kendra felt it. The magnetic force. She didn’t know where is would lead her, but she couldn’t wait to find out. She left a note on the fridge and sprinted out the door with her backpack in hand.

Lilly felt it. The magnetic force. She was relieved. She had no idea where it was going to take her, but any where was better than her house. She crept out her window and down the drainpipe. She couldn’t wake her dad up, she didn’t want another bruise. She was gone.

Kendra sprinted down the street, the force pulling her by the chest, by the heart. Her mother had told her that she’ll know she found the right thing when she sees it. Something will click in her brain. Suddenly rain began to pour. She halted briefly to pull out an umbrella, and kept running.

Lilly only knew about the force from school. She didn’t know what is led to, or why she felt obligated to follow it, but the force was pulling at her heart, urging her onwards.

Kendra has been running for what felt like hours when she saw something. A light. A colossal light atop a red and white striped tower. She knew it was time to climb the lighthouse.

Lilly had been walking for around 30 minutes in silence and pouring rain that soaked her to the bone when she saw it. A lighthouse. She knew her destiny lay at the top.

Kendra scaled the stairs. 3, 2, 1, a lightbulb greeted her. Nothing else. Her face fell until the forced pulled her to a chair. She had to wait. The forced seemed to be telling her what direction the thing was at.

Lilly got to the door and pulled it open. The forced was pulling her. Up, up, up... some people found money, their dream job, a house key, a pen. She reached the top.

Kendra stared into Lilly’s drenched face.

Lilly stared into Kendra’s hazelnut eyes.

It wasn’t a house, money, a job, no. It was something much more valuable. They both new it.

Lilly tripped in to Kendra’s arms.

They had found each other.
