Note From the Runaway

Jacob and I held onto each other until we heard sirens. It about time…Jacob and I came outside and waited for them to arrive. I held his hand, I knew he needed it. “No matter what happens Jacob were in this together”, I told him. The policemen came out, “Alright Jacob, this better be good.” I told them the story. Everything, since I knew they wouldn’t believe Jacob. “Now here we are and Owen went upstairs.” Oh no! Owen… I still cared a little, but now he may go to jail for attempted murder. It may be wrong, but it is what he deserves. “Let’s go get him boys.” said the policeman and they headed inside. We followed close behind. They went up the stairs. Every corner it seemed like they were in a stealth movie. Holding their hand on their gun just in case they need to pull it out. We searched and searched, but no sign of Owen. While the policemen were looking though Jacob and I found at note, “Good bye Sofia, you will never have to see me again. Don’t worry about looking for me”. I tucked it in my pocket.
