Chapter 53
Calling and reporting to the police was no use, goddamn it, they wouldn't believe me or take a word I say seriously because I didn't know for sure the location Jason was taken and if surely he had been kidnapped. And also because I couldn't describe all the gang members.
I decided to go back home first to get cleaned up before going straight back to the police station.
When I got home, the first thing I saw in the doorway was a box of chocolate.
First I was afraid to open it till I saw a rose and a card that said, "I'm sorry,". I quickly guessed it must have been from Tyler so I took it inside and kept it on the kitchen table.
"Oh my God Emmi, where have you been, you almost gave me a heart attack. You kept me worried all night.
My God you're all bruised up, look at you, what happened to you? tell me," my mom asked looking so worried and concerned.
She was so touched and shocked after I had told her everything that had happened.
She told me to stay at home instead while she goes to the police but I felt like I couldn't just stay in one place and do nothing while Jason was still in trouble. So I ran off to look for him myself immediately my mom went upstairs to get dressed.
I went to the same tree spot that Jason had taken me to look for clues or anything that would help me find him.
All I found was his cell phone lying on the floor.
At first I didn't know the use it was going to be to me, but when I opened it, I saw it was on record.
Yep, Jason was officially the smartest person I knew, he must have done that on purpose in order for me to find him.
He had mentioned some places and addresses in the conversation which was recorded in his phone.
It made it much easy for me to find him.
I didn't spare another second, though I had no money on me for transportation. I saw a kid park his scooter and the thought came to me to borrow it or steal it rather. But I wouldn't call it stealing, I was eventually going to return it and add compensation to it.
So I rode off with his scooter. After a lot of scooting, I was getting so tired and felt the scooter was slowing me down..
Suddenly I saw a car sloe down beside me and wined down is glasses.
"What do you think you're doing and where the hell do you think you're going with that thing," at first I was scared that I might have been apprehended by the police, but when I leaned to take a closer look at the person's face, my heart praised the lord... It was non other than Tyler.
"Are you gonna get in or what, it'll be easier to find him with the both of us on his trail," he looked at me with a hopeful smile as he waited for me to join him in his car.
"Have you been stalking me or what, how did you find me and how did you know where I was going? How sure are you I even have something that will help us find him?" I asked folding my arms while looking outside the glass feeling a bit helpless and disappointed.
"That's should be the least of your worries now OK, and he's my friend and always be, so you can trust me that I can do anything for him as well as you can," he said feeling sympathetic, well he sounded like it.
"Where are you taking me, what the hell do you think you're doing?" I asked with rage and fear that he was not taking me to Jason. I was beginning to see familiar street and houses close to my street.
"Emmi...there's something I need to tell you...is important you know OK," he said with a sad face.
"Whatever it is I am not interested, so take me to Jason now or am coming straight down out of your car," I threatened. I could care less of what he was about to tell me, all I wanted to hear right now was Jason and nothing more.
"I-i-i-s-s-s a-bout your m-mom," he stammered with a look of fear, his voice became weaker and deeper while his eyes grew red as if he were about to cry.
It was then I grew scared and worried.
"W-what about m-my mom?" I stammered too, my body quickly grew chills and tears were beginning to fill my eyes.
"Just calm down okay, you look tense, trust me is nothing to be too stressed about...well it kinda is," he was beginning to get on my nerves with all this suspense and explanation.
"Just spill it!" I yelled.
"Your mom's passed away," he spilled it. At first I didn't want to believe it, she told me she had some months left, and we're still in that same month, something else must have been wrong.
"The doctors said it was poison," he added.
"The cookies!" I exclaimed.
"What cookies?" At that point I had nothing to add, it was like all the tears inside my eye just poured out and someone had just suddenly taken away my voice and my last breath.
I didn't know what to think again, it was as if someone had taken away my consciousness and my conscience too. After a few seconds the whole world went blank and so did my mind.
************
After a few a while, I found myself lying in nowhere, in a hospital bed actually.
"Where am I?" I asked feeling so dizzy and things looking blur.
" you're awake, how are you feeling?" Someone asked with concern but I still couldn't see the person clearly. I tried getting up from the hospital bed trying to recall the past events and how I got here, but the voice came again and stopped me.
"Take it easy okay? Everything will be alright, just relax let me go and get the doctor," He said while caressing my forehead.
I lay back my head on the pillow and looked up to the ceiling. I had no idea why, but I was feeling so empty, so clueless, helpless and hopeless. Everything else seemed to be blank. As if I was writing a novel and came to a pause, clueless of what to write next with many blank pages left to write.
So sorry guys for the late update.
