Come to Me Quietly (Closer to You) (2014)
“She’s not hurtin’ anyone.”
Jared stood facing away from her at the end of the sidewalk. Aly hung back by the front doorstep, wondering why Christopher hated her so much. She was always nice and she never told when he did something bad. It wasn’t her fault that she was only five.
Christopher dragged a fat stick along the pavement where he walked in the middle of the street in front of their house. It clattered along the pebbles. “Fine,” he said with an annoyed sigh. “But if she acts like... a baby, I’m gonna make her go home.”
Jared looked back at her with a smile. “Come on, Aly,” he said before he turned away.
Ahead of her, Jared darted up behind Christopher and flicked him in the back of the head. Jared laughed and took off running. Christopher chased him. “You’re gonna pay for that one, Jared.”
“Only if you can catch me.”
Aly didn’t worry too much.MoreLess
