HEARTLESS

March 3,2018.

"Lee,I'm home" She yells and locks the door behind her.She takes her boots off and walks in the living room, where her younger sister,Leslie is laying on the couch, watching TV. Leslie had a high temperature so her older sister allowed her to stay at home.

Alyssa Taylor Miller,18-year-old.She has blonde curly hair and bright blue eyes. Alyssa was born on December 13,1999 in Reading,Pennsylvania. When she was 6, her family moved in Nashville and when she turned 8 they move in New York. Alyssa's sister Leslie was born on January 21,2002. She's 15 and has blonde wavy hair and blue eyes like her older sister.Both sisters resemble their mother,Jessica. Unfortunately Jessica passed away when Alyssa was 10. Sisters live with their father, Scott in New York. Scott works as a cop for 7 years now. Alyssa goes to university and Leslie goes to high school.
Alyssa works in a cafe as her part-time job, with her best friend Amy Smith. They've been friends for over seven years now.

"Have you heard the news?"Leslie asked when her sister came in the room.

"No,what news?"Alyssa said,putting her bag on the table.

"That murderer, I mean sadist Harry Styles escaped from prison"

"Gosh, what time is it? can't those cops look after one prisoner? he has ran away for second time!" Alyssa said while taking out books from her bag.

"That's third time by the way"Leslie corrected to her sister.

"Are you hungry?"Alyssa changed the topic.

"No,I ordered pizza, it's in a fridge"Leslie said and grabbed her phone,texting to someone

"Can i stay at home tomorrow,too?"Leslie looked up at Alyssa and asked

" No, you're going to school tomorrow" Alyssa said,walked to the fridge and grabbed a slice of pizza.

"Come on please,i still have a high temperature and my forehead burns like hell!"Leslie begged. Alyssa rolled her eyes and said

"just tomorrow, you got it?"

"you're the best sister ever!"Leslie exclaimed. Alyssa sat down at the table to do her homework.

"You going to work tonight?"Leslie asked

"yes. at 4 pm. gonna stay with Amy after work so take care."

"When will you come back?"Leslie looked up from her phone to her sister

"After university, around 3 i guess."

"Ok"Leslie gave a short reply.

It was 3:30 so Alyssa started to get ready for work.

"I'm leaving,Lee. Dad comes around 8 so cook something for him okay?"Alyssa said, wearing her jacket. 

"i will sister.good luck"

After few minutes of walk Alyssa was at restaurant. She entered inside and greeted to other employees. She saw Amy taking orders so she started to work.

Alyssa grabbed a notebook and went at the table to take orders. At the corner of the room a boy with hoodie was sitting. Alyssa walked to him.

"Hello. What would you like to order?"Alyssa shyly asked to a customer who was a bit strange.He wore sunglasses and had a beard. he had long curly hair and was wearing a beanie and a black hoodie.

"I'd like to have a...beer and roasted meat"he said with a British accent which Alyssa thought was quite sexy. Alyssa gave him a nod and walked away,giving orders to a chief. When stranger's meal was ready and Alyssa was taking it to him, he wasn't sitting there anymore. Alyssa shrugged and put down the meal,she thought he went to the toilet, but he never showed up.

By 10 p.m Alyssa finished her work and she changed back to her clothes.

"You coming at my place right?"Amy asked to Alyssa on their way at home.

"yeah, If it's not problem with you"

"awe,of course not darling"Amy said and two girls  continued to walk.

"How's Lee?"Amy asked.

"Oh, she's fine. I was about to call her"Alyssa said and took out her phone from her pocket and called to Leslie's phone.

"I am fine, dad is watching TV. do not worry about me, bye bye"Leslie quickly said and ended the phone call. 

"Sometimes, she's too rude"Alyssa said and Amy chuckled

"Does she have a boyfriend?"Amy asked and Alyssa raised her eyebrow

"No-i don't think so"

"I'm pretty sure she does"Amy said and winked.

"okay, why are we talking about Lee, why don't you tell me what's going on with you and Michael?"Alyssa asked. Amy had a big crush on Michael for like 3 years now.Last night they were on a date.

"He is cute but i think we won't get along"Amy sadly said.

"why"

"well, we're opposites of each other. he likes things that i hate and i like things he hates!He wants to live in a boat and travel around the world and i hate the sea!"Amy said and Alyssa laughed at the though of Amy living in a boat.

"How are things going with Adam?"Amy asked. It's been 4 months that Alyssa likes Adam,Adam does too but none of them has courage to speak.

"Well..we greeted at university"Alyssa shrugged and Amy chuckled.

"how amazing love story"She said sarcastically and Alyssa sighed. 

They were already at Amy's house. Girls did some gossiping,joking and then they fell asleep.

Alyssa was wokem up by Amy.
" for fuck's sake Alyssa, we're fucking late."Amy shook Alyssa who was rubbing her eyes.

"What time is it?" Alyssa asked.

"Its fucking 10:30. we're so late. get up now!" Amy yelled while changing her clothes.

Alyssa sighed.
"it doesn't matter. we're so late"

"I have an exam and i have to be there. If you don't wanna come you can stay here" Amy said.

"No,I'll go home. Lee is alone so" Alyssa shrugged.

"Okay then you better get your ass up"

Alyssa got up and got dressed. On the way home she went to the mall to buy some groceries and then she stopped at Starbucks. While she was waiting for her coffee she saw the stranger from last night.The guy with hoodie an messy beard who didn't wait for his order and left. Alyssa's name was soon called and she got Starbucks for herself and her sister. 

She was finally at home. she put down everything and walked towards her sister's bedroom. without knocking she opened the door. Her heart pounding fast she took few steps back. 

"I'm so sorry! I can explain!"Leslie yelled but Alyssa ran outside. She was holding her tears back because she didn't want anyone to see her crying. Alyssa wanted to go at Amy's place but the house would've been probably locked, She thought about calling or texting Amy but she had left everything back in the house. She had nowhere to go.She had couple of bucks in her pocket and she went to have an ice cream.

It was around 2 and Alyssa made up her mind. Everyone was at work so New York's streets were almost empty. She was walking in the ally when she heard footsteps behind her. She hasn't paid attention but someone was probably following her so she turned around and so the strange guy from yesterday and this morning, at Starbucks. She got tensed up and sped up but then something hit her head. she fell down and blacked out.
