Excerpt
Shocked and frozen, I stared at her as she rocked back and forth with her eyes closed and her head slightly tilted backwards. At first, I couldn’t understand what I was witnessing but then I soon realized that there were two feet, one on each side of her.
“Oh no! I walked in on Amara’s parents...”
I thought as my mind wandered off. I soon realized that I had loosened my grip on the money when I heard a thud and looked down to see the pouch by my feet. As I picked it up, there was a loud gasp that caused me to refocus and raise my head to see Amara’s mother looking at me in shock.
