Fallen

Fallen Episode 3: Give Me A Little Elbow Room

|11:09 A.M. Location: The Shop's back room|

I stand in the back room, during the storm.

Someone broke in. And took almost, everything.

I felt the sudden heart break in my chest, I was reluctant to move. But I forced myself into the store area, "Someone took the fucking register" I growl to myself.

I sit down and rest my head on my hands. Rita and Tony quietly walk into the room, "Marco?" Tony called. My head popped up, "Yeah?" "What happened to the shop?"

I sigh, "It was broken into last night..." Toby walked over to me and hugged my waist, "I'm sorry Marco, I hope everything with be okay and you get your money back!" Tony smiled happily.

I smile back, standing up.

|12:56 A.M. Location: Marco's house|

I lay in bed, finishing one of the books of the Gods and Goddess, I pick up another book. It had no cover nor name, but I felt strangely compelled to read the book.

"Hmm.. Enough reading for tonight, I must get a shower" I sigh and start stripping before I got into the bathroom. Feeling a presence hovering over my shoulders I turn around.

"Meeow" I hear faintly, I look down to see a small white kitten. "Hey little buddy" I smile and pick up the kitten. I check to make sure if it was a boy or a girl, "Oh, so, your name will be... Atsuko" I grin happily to myself as I hold my new companion.

I lay on my bed in my briefs with Atsuko, I scratch under her chin which she seems to like, and behind her ears, she nearly fell asleep. Forgetting my shower I fell asleep along with Atsuko.
