Kitten felt relieved to know that there was nothing wrong with her, or the children.As we walked, following Kitten and Chris's lead, I asked, "Is ther... a way to increase the amount of light in here? All of you, and even Dog, can see better than I can. Susan and I need a little more light."Chris, this time, went to a nearby wall. She walked along it for a few metres. She put her hand onto a slightly discoloured section, a little more than a metre off the floor. From all over the room, the light. Sven wondered what her price would be. He shrugged his shoulders and sipped his beer and waited... The cars had their lights on now as the early evening shadows deepened into dusk as he was startled out of his reverie by the hands that had been placed on his shoulders.As he half-rose, they gently opposed his motion and, off balance, he sat back down."Shauna... ?" The question died on his lips as she came round the side of his chair and he caught sight of her for the first time. The colour. I knew how he felt and he knew how I felt, I was both looking forward to college and really nervous about it. As my Dad said it'd be different and hopefully in a good way, but however it was I was determined we'd remain as close as were - ringing every day and going home whenever I could manage a weekend. I gave him a grin, it would still be good to make the most of the time we had together, "So this is what this weekend is, some time to have fun together and bond." Still a surprise," he smiled. But she wasn’t like any of her other friends. I couldn’t explain why but I knew I had to have her.“Sup, I’m Michael.”“Okay then, I’m gonna leave you two alone now”. She left to go talk to some other people.“Uh, I have to go to the bathroom”. Before I could reply she was already gone.I decided to leave her alone for a while but make my move soon.My chance finally came when I saw her getting a drink. I rushed over to her making sure not to hit her or look desperate.“Hey there, its Dana.
