Bab 306: The Police Want To Talk To You

Sophie Quinn was making her way home from school when she got a text from her mother asking her to pick up some milk. She needed it for the recipe she was making for dinner and they were out.

She rolled her eyes. How come she was always the one stuck with these sorts of chores? Just because she was the oldest child still living at home? Aiden was lucky—he escaped the Quinn family's apartment and was living on his own so he didn't have to deal with this anymore.

She felt a bit of sympathy for him. He probably used to have to do this all the time since he was the oldest. 

Annoyed, Sophie kicked a bottle cap lying on the sidewalk. It ricocheted off a brick wall before hitting a dark shape lying on the ground in the alley. Was that a person?!

"Hey, are you okay?" she cried in alarm as she stepped closer.
