coming home

Eric is glad that he’s a senior and graduating high school.   He’s at the pizza shop with friends and chatting. He looks at his watch. “Well I got to go.” He heads toward the door. “We’ll catch you later.” They tell him.  He comes home and puts down his stuff. Then grabs a drink of Pepsi.  His dad is in the kitchen telling him about a group that he should stay away from. They are in another town but a few of them come here sometimes.  He doesn’t know why  his father are aginst them. He’s heard the negative things, but still is not sure what to believe since he doesn't know them that well. He does his homework and then goes to bed.  Eric is walking down the street when he sees a young man in his 20’s who looks similar to him, and is motioning for him to follow him. Who is this person, he wonders .  He starts to follow him out of curiosity, into a forest.  He wakes up and wonders what it meant. The next night, he dreams he sees a young lady motioning him to follow her.

'Hey, guys lets do a video of our army experiences.' Erez said. 'What do you mean, Orit asked. 'Well you know, talk about our daily life in the army and the ups and downs.' 'Sounds interesting' Ayelet said. 'We can do it with my camera' Ari said. They spoke some more and then left. The week went by quickly and was almost over. Ari was on his phone while going to the store to buy a few things. “So glad the we

The decision

Eli was walking around outside and heard the usual sound of police sirens going by. He was kind of curious where they were headed. Everything around looked fine outside. Then he saw someone running from a building. What was going on, he wondered. He looked at his watch and saw that he’s going to be late if he doesn’t leave. He went to work and tried to focused on the assignment he was working on. Later, he decided to call his friend and have lunch with him. They've been friends ever since high school. They recently graduated from college, and are working. Eli works with computers doing graphic design. His friend Daniel works at a Judaica store, and also is a columnist who writes articles. They go to the pizza shop and order something and then go sit down. “Did you see what happened?” Eli asked his friend. “No, what happened?” “I think there was a burglary.” “No, I didn’t hear anything about that.” “Oh, maybe it was nothing.” Eli said, unsure now. It was an insignifi
