To the Movies

Home. No they’d find us there.
Suddenly I realized how short my list really was. My home away from home was Brie’s house, and I never really went anywhere else except the movies occasionally, the store, and school.
A brief image of the letter my brother wrote before he left flashes in my minds eye. I remembered the random letters that weren’t quite in his handwriting, and I knew his handwriting all too well.
“Follow me!” I commanded, and Brie and her father marched after me down the street.
I brushed through my door and snatched the letter, hidden so carefully beneath my mattress it had not suffered so much as a crease.
I began to read the letter:
“Dear Mel,”
An extra curl on the M. But there was no time to decode here.
Where too?
“To the movies,” I declared, as once again, Brie and her dad scurried after me toward the theater.

    Thanks! Oh and the purpose of decoding the letter is to find out where her brother is being hidden, and she’s going to the movies to finish decoding. The letter m thing was only a coincidence on my part…
