Chapter 25
Leo's p.o.v
We reached the orphanage. Mary, one of the care takers there, ran and hugged me. "Oh you're alive!" She let go and looked at the boy next to me. "And who's this?"
"His parents died. Both of them." She bent down and talked to the boy. She nodded after a while and stood back up .
"Leo don't leave this place. We should be safe here."
"What? What do you mean safe? Mary whats happening" I followed her to the kitchen, still holding the boys hand.
"Don't you watch the news. Fire, children being trampled, screams. All of that cause by one person."
"What?" She nodded. "Nico!" I got my phone and dialed his number. No answer. I tried 5 more times before dialing Bianca's number. She answered on the 3 try. But It wasn't her. It was someone else.
"Uh.. Hello? Uh sorry to inform you but the girl is Uh dead a-" I didn't hear the rest. The phone slipped out of my hands.
"B-Bianca is dead?" I looked at Mary. "Then N-N-Ni-" I covered my mouth. Tears started to form. The little boy tugged my shirt and I looked down. He gave me the phone and asked.
"Are you okay? Did someone you love die too?" He looked at me with sad eyes.
"I-I... Well... Yes. I loved my boyfriends family. And his sister died." The little boy hugged my leg.
"I'll love you." I smiled and picked him up.
"Here. Let's take to to the other kids. I need to go." He nodded and I have him to Mary. Before she went I asked the boy. "What's your name?"
"My name is Nico!" He squealed as Mary left. He waved at me and I waved back.
"Nico...." A tear fell down my cheek as I waked out. All I hoped was that he was okay. And that I could see him again. I called Will.
"Hey Leo. Did you see the news?"
"Y-yes. Will...B-Bianca is dead and Nico. Will I'm scared!" I cried out
"Shh shh. Nico is strong. He'll be alright. So are you!" He said, his voice cracking a little. "Look let's meet at the park and we'll find Nico. Okay?"
"Okay." I nod and we both hung up. I put my phone in my back pocket and jogged to the park. Tears still fell.
I can't lose Nico. I can't. I started to think about the fire. No...not in fire. I-I can't lose someone else because of a fire... Not Nico. not anyone I care about.
I just hope it's not too late
