I had never seen Kevin before next door.
My mother kept me off neighbors. She kept me away from them, always telling me how bad they were. From the moment I came to know, I had no neighbors.
But this made sense.
She must have kept me away from Kevin?
Or maybe Mr Lionel had two sons?
Kevin and Max?
Did Kevin have siblings?
I had no idea.
But one person would tell me the answers.
I rushed to the cafeteria where the two would be.
But that is when I noticed there was a huge crowd assembled there.
Almost few inches away, my best friend were following the police man, tall and Indian, as if they were being possessed.
He had gathered them next.
Fuck.
I retraced my steps and made for the classroom.
Collecting my backpacks, I ran home.
"Mom!"
She took me in and gave me some water.
