Daughter Of KnivesA Chapter by xxxHailieyxxxAs Meelonie browses the library she meets a young girl named, The Daughter Of Knives.
"So you want to go to the library"Mom asked as she pushed groceries into the car. "Yeah,if you don't mind". She looked at me,"of corse I don't mind. I love getting rid of you for a couple hours" she smiled. I made a shocked face and laughed. "C'mon kiddo,"Mom said getting in the car. Around the block was the DeQuincy Public Library, a smallplace filled with knowladge that nobody pays attention to. "Okay talk to strangers do drugs all that good stuff"Mom said letting me out at the library. "Okay Mom I won't do any of that good stuff." "Thats my girl"Mom laughed and pulled out of the concrete parking lot. The glass door was totally see through, I could see an older woman in snooty frame glasses and a Stage outfit. I walked through the door into the cold room. "Good afternoon maim" Miss Snooty said to me. I nodded at her and looked around, "is there anything I can help you with" Miss Snooty asked. "Actually yes, can you tell me where the horror novels are?" I said with a smile. She pointed with a long finger to the far east corner. "Thanks" I said and walked over to the isle. Nobody was in the cold room, or I thought.
In the horror isle was a tall, blonde, blue eyed woman. She turned and looked at me, "Hi there"She said with a smile melting me into oblivion. I waved and stood next to her, "I'm Meelonie Hopkins" I said with an average smile. Her eyelids had the blackest black eyeshadow and dark lips. Her skin could outshine the moon. I looked down at her shoes the were black boots with dark laces, and her leggings looked like they were made from black satin. She wore a silver white dress and a feathery belt. "Im Daughter of Knives" She said smiling at me. "That's your real name?" She nodded,"Yeah, I know it's a little odd." "No I like it. Can i call you Knives for short? "Yeah," Knives said. After minuets of talking to Knives we had talked about every great novel in the english language. "No Dracula was a materpiece" Knives said. "I never said it wasn't! I'm just saying The Scarlet letter was better". She laughed and shook her head, "You're crazy, but intresting I like you". The door opened and my mom walked in. "Ah hello Mel. Oh , who's this?" Mom asked shaking Knive's hand. "Mom this is Knives. Knives this is mom" I said. "Well she's very lovely." "Thanks you maim" Knives smiled. "Ah! And polite too how sweet!" Knives laughed,"well I would love to talk all day but I have somewhere I need to be." "Oh okay Knives I'll see you around" I said waving. "Yes nice meeting you Knives" Mom said waving to her bye. Knives waved back at me and looked at Mom. She did somewhat of a bow and unhooked an umbrella. "Skin condition can't be in the sun too long or else" Knives said. Mom and I nodded. Knives waved and left the library. "Well, she seems nice" Mom said smiling. "She is and she's different I like her." Mom hugged me, "How pleasant," she plugged the keys into the ignition and started the car. I hopped in and buckled my seatbelt. "You hungry?" Mom said pulling into a Mcdonalds. "Yeah I can eat" I said getting out of the car and slamming the door shut. When we got inside I picked a seat next to the large window and waited for Mom. A few moments later mom sat across from me and settled into her tiny chair. "Mom" I said when we got our food. "Yeah hun?" Mom said. "How come when Knives left she bowed to you?" I asked sipping my Dr Pepper. Mom shrugged, "Maybe she was taught to respect her elders." I laughed," isn't that the truth." Mom looked at me and threw a few french fries at me. "Hey!" I laughed.
