I waited until my Dad went up and i motioned Mel up from under the couch.
“Ok. Listen, Mel.” I said. I’m gonna go up to my room, and I’ll wait ‘til my dad goes to bed, or i have the doors locked. Try and find the back door, and I’ll open my window, thats when you climb up the grid again and we’ll go to bed or whatever.”
“Okay.” She nodded.
“Good luck.” I said, hugging her and giving a qucik kiss.
“Don’t get caught.” I whispered.
I went up to my room, waited a few minutes, and…...
That’s Dad’s bedroom door closing! I have to signal Mel!
I opened my window, and waved in.
In a few seconds, Mel was up, and shivering a little.
“It was cold out there.” She said.
I held her until she warm up, then I yawned.
“I am tired.” i said. “I’m gonna go to bed.”
I grabbed a blanket and went to the floor.
“G’night.” I said as Mel turned off the lights
“Night.”
