Hey Guys!
Sorry it took so long for me to write you, I bet you guys are mad at me. Anyway I been okay, my first day was pretty…embarrassing. But after the first week its going really good. I got a job at a restaurant with my new friend, his name is Max. He’s sort of strange, but who isn’t? Oh and the weirdest thing happen. You know the bracelet Bell gave me, well it disappeared! One day I’m wearing it and the next day its gone! I have this feeling someone is watching me, maybe whoever it is they took it? I don’t know, I been freaking out lately. Maybe I’m still getting use to living on my own. Today I’m planning to visit my parents, they’re buried at the local cemetery. This will be my first time actually, sort of meeting them. I was thinking after I was done visiting them I look for their house, the house I lived in before. Like I remember it, but it’ll be nice to look at it. So next time I promise to write sooner, if I don’t write within a week something is wrong and come looking for me. XD

The morning light made its way through pale pink curtains. Cora slept peacefully in her bed. Her mind was blank, nothing but sleep. Then something started to interrupt this peaceful state.
“Gah!” Cora opened her eyes wide and sat up. “Who is knocking!?”
Cora threw her covers off and rolled out of the bed. She dragged her feet down the hall, to the door. Cora blinked a couple times to gain focus, she looked through the peep hole on the door. Max.
“Max we don’t work today!” Cora shouted.
“I know, just open the door!”
Cora sighed and opened the door. Max stood cheerful, while Cora looked at him with a drowsy face.
“So what do you want?”
“Well I was wondering if you wanted to hang out today?”
Cora suddenly felt trapped. “I, have plans today.”, she stuttered.
“Aw come one Cora! The only time we ever hang out is at work. Don’t you want to be friends outside of work?”
“I do, its just I was planning to see my parents today.”
Max’s frustration simmered down. He knew what happen to Cora’s parents.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know.”
“It’s okay, I should of told you.”
Both stayed quiet for a moment. “But I won’t be out all day,”
Max’s face lit up, “Really?”
“Yeah, we can hang out after I’m done.”
“Promise?”
“Yes,”
“Pinky promise?” Max held out his arm and put his pinky finger up.
Cora rolled her eyes. “Yes, pinky promise.”
Max laughed. “Okay I’ll see you later then!”
“For sure! I’ll go by your place when I’m done.”
Max nodded and walked away. Cora smiled and closed the door.

It was mid-day and Cora was dressed and ready to visit her parents. On the outside she seemed calmed, but on the inside she was nervous! Something inside was screaming and left a mark of guilt.
Cora left her apartment with a side backpack that hung off her shoulder and John’s knife in her back pocket. She locked her door and walked towards the exit of the apartments.
Cora walked down the crowded streets of Naji.
“I should of listened,”
“I will do anything to protect my family,”
“Naji, the safe place. That‘s where I‘ll be.”
Flashbacks of her father’s words ran through Cora’s mind. The last entry he wrote was a promise to save his family.
Cora reached the local cemetery at the edge of town. The sun was bright and Cora held flowers she bought on the way.
