The City of Astan [2]

Eli

I shake my head, "You will after tonight."

I bring her to the park and put my IPod on, "C'mere."

Grace

I bite my lip and follow him, unsure of things.

Eli

I smile and rest my hands on her waist, "What's your name?"

Grace

I hesitate before wrapping my arms around his neck, "Grace."

Eli

I nod, "Who are your parents?" I sway.

Grace

I bite my lip again, "They're not around anymore. My brother is the one who got me into this stuff. His name's Brenden. Brenden Scoft."

Eli

I nod, "So you steal? I'm into that, and making fake ID's and passports."

Grace

I nod, "I've had experience in the drug field as well. That's where my brother is now."

Eli

I nod again, "Cool. I used to be into that when I was sixteen."

Grace

I nod, "Have you always been into this lifestyle?"

Eli

I nod, "I was born in it, since my parents run the buisness."

Grace

I flash a smile and nod, looking around, "My brother got me into it. He was always into drugs and gangs and just dragged me along when our parents died."

Eli

I nod, "Are you happy about it?"

Grace

I shrug, "It's my way of life. It's fine."

Eli

I nod again slowly and study her, "Are...Are you ever afraid you'll get caught?"
