“Kate!” Courtney called out after her two year younger sister. Her mom had asked her to babysit her while she had to run back to her office on short notice.
At first her mom had panicked about not having a babysitter but Courtney had said she’d take care of herself and her sister. Though her mother first hadn’t liked the idea she did have to get to the office and it was only for an hour.
But when Courtney had looked in the counters after something to eat Kate had run out of the house. Her mom would kill her when she got home and found out that Courtney lost her sister.
Courtney ran out in the garden on time to Kate clime up in the big apple tree near the fence that cut their garden from their neighbors.
“Kate, get down from there before you fall” Kate just climbed higher and sat herself on one of the branches and dangled with her feet. The wind blew her brown around her face and she laughed and spread her arms out wide. “Look sis I can fly!”
When Courtney heard the first creaking from the tree she imminently started running but it was too late. The branch Kate was sitting on broke and she fell down on the other side of the fence.
“Kate!” Courtney ran over to the fence turning a bucket over so she could see over it. “Kate, are you all right?” Her sister wasn’t crying. Oh god, why wasn’t she crying? Had she hit her head?
Just as Courtney step up on the bucket while repeating the number to the ambulance in her head she heard a boy’s voice from the other side of the fence.
“She’s okay. I got her”
Courtney peered over the fence to see her sister resting safely in the arms of a boy in Courtney’s age. He had peal blue eyes and black messy hair and a black shirt with a skull on.
“I heard the branch break and I was standing just by the tree so I caught her” The boy said. Kate hugged the boy and jumped down from his arms and said. “See sis, I’m fine” Before she run of into their neighbors garden. The boy looked up at her. and reached up a hand. “Here I’ll help you over” Courtney cautiously took his hand and climbed over the fence, careful not to rip her favorite purple dress. The boy held her at her waist when she jumped down on his side of the fence.
She brushed her brown hair who had fell out from her pigtails from her eyes and looked at the boy. Hi smiled and looked her. “I’m Duncan”
She smiled back at him “I’m Courtney” He carefully reached out his hand to take hers and said “Come on let’s go find your sister”
