Chapter One Hundred and Forty Six

Annabelle_

I rested for a while before Brooklyn and I began to prepare ourselves for where I wanted us to go.

“Where are we even going to?” Brooklyn kept asking me.

“Why do you keep asking me ahead? It's not a big deal, I just want you to accompany me to where I would meet with someone because I don't want to go alone. I don't trust the person. I don't even know where exactly the place is for now but I made sure to let the person know that if it's not an open place and during the day, I would not be present.”

Brook paused with the makeup she was wearing and asked, “Annabelle, I hope this is not something dangerous that you've gotten yourself into. What does the person want to do for you or what business do you have with the person?”

“The person wants to give me evidence about what Henry had been up to but I'm not sure if I want to know because I think I rather I do not know about anything bad that he can do.” I honestly did not want to go to see th

    Chapter One Hundred and Forty Seven Annabelle_ I yelled at Brooklyn while we drove into the restaurant. She apologized after that but her reactions were calmer than she was when we left the house earlier. I could feel it because she said very few words to every question I asked and insisted she wasn't going to order her strawberry croissant anymore. Left to me, I wasn't going to beg her but I couldn't just sit around and watch how she gazed at the snacks she got like she was forced to get them. “Brooklyn, are you acting this way because of the way I spoke to you earlier?” I put the snack I was eating back on the table and asked her. “No.” Her response was brief. “So what is the matter? You know I can't deal with the way you're behaving. I really can't. I wasn't saying you shouldn't have driven like that but it was during the day and you know the amount of trouble I get into because I drive like that. It's as though the police always watch out for my car to drive like that.” I sa

Why are you just calling me now? Weren't you the one that agreed with Henry for the wedding date?” I was pacing around the room before I heard what my dad said. On hearing that, I paused and said, “Oh I see. So you were not the one who picked a date right?” “I mean, Henry came to me and said you both had made up your mind but you were not sure which date to pick so he gave me dates and asked me to choose which I think was suitable. I don't know why you seem to be surprised about the invitation letter.” I realized the plan was fully Henry's and to a good extent, I was happy about that because I could now fight and refuse it. I knew my dad would not agre

    Chapter One Hundred and Forty Nine Annabelle _ It was past four o'clock in the afternoon when Nana knocked on my room door and said, “Can I come in?” “Sure, you can.” I recognized her voice and answered her. I was working on my laptop on my bed. Brooklyn was beside me but she was engrossed in her phone. “Is anything the matter?” I asked Nana because she looked very worried as she walked into my room. She always wore a soft grin even when she wasn't in the best of mood so I was alarmed by her facial expression. “It's Johnson.” The moment I heard that, I sat up straight. I didn't know that Brooklyn wasn't as engrossed as I thought she was on her phone because the moment she heard what Nana had said she jumped up and said, “What happened to him?” “He is yet to be back from school. I've called the school management and they said he was no longer in school and that he was picked up by a black car.” Brooklyn and I looked at ourselves and echoed together, “What black car?” I calmed

    Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Annabelle_ The time was fast spent and we still couldn't get through to Henry, nor did anyone come home with Johnson. “What are we going to do Brooklyn? Where is Johnson?” I became so stressed and I kept asking Brooklyn several questions. “I don't know who can even help with this.” I stood up severally and sat back on my chair minutes later, then stood up again. I did not know what to do and it felt as if we were running out of time. I held my phone in my hand expecting Henry to call or a miracle to happen. Then, I started to feel a vibration in my hand before my phone rang. Because I was anxious already, I did not let it ring at all. I picked up the call immediately and said, “Did you pick Johnson up from school?” I had seen who called before I picked but it wasn't Henry,it was Travis. I just felt that for him to call me at that time he was probably the one who picked Johnson. “Annabelle, are you fine?” Those were Travis's first response to me.

    Chapter One Hundred and Fifty OneTravis_I had gotten ready to leave for Annabelle's home when Samantha walked into my room and said, “Where are you going this early?”I knew that wasn't what she had planned to ask me because she had a surprised look on her face.“I'm going to see Annabelle. She can't find her son.” I felt that if I was being sincere with Samantha, she would not try to stress me like she always did.“I see. Well, I came to remind you about what I had asked you and I need the money as soon as possible.” Samantha showed little to no concern about the fact that I said Johnson was kidnapped.On seeing what she was about that morning, I didn't think it was necessary to stress myself over arguing with her so I said, “You know what, when I get back, we will discuss that. For now, I need to be on my way.”I stood up and headed out the door.I honestly expected Samantha to shout or nag or say something but she didn't.

    Chapter One Hundred and Fifty TwoTravis_I did not want to answer the policewoman because I did not want to get Annabelle offended if I said I was Johnson's father.“It's just the gene in the family. We all look alike. One won't know who gave birth to who in my household. “ I responded to the Policewoman.“Oh, I see. You both look alike though. I just had to ask. I see the reason why you followed her here to find him. Someone can not be the carbon copy of you and go missing without making you feel worried too.” She smiled and said warmly, “But you all should not worry much. If it is true that he left an unknown vehicle, we will get the CCTV cameras and identify the vehicle and who owns it.The policewoman turned to Annabelle and asked, “Have I helped to an extent?”I knew Annabelle wanted them to do something about it immediately but there was nothing they could do about it at that instant. “Yeah. You did the best you could and you were very warm too. I'm grateful, thank you.” Annab

    Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Three Annabelle_ Everyone seemed to not be aware that Johnson was missing in his school and that made me more furious about them all. “How could it be that my child would be missing and even after I had called the school, the information wasn't passed to the right authority that could do something about it in their school.” I thought to myself. I had spoken a lot of words to the Principal of the school and I just didn't want to add anything more. The Principal led us to the room where all the cameras were being watched in the school. Immediately she entered, the staff stood up and greeted her. They were all surprised to see her in their monitor room. “Do you have the video coverage of yesterday?” The principal asked them. “Yes ma, but it might soon delete on its own.” One of the staff answered. “Is it possible that we can extract the video to another system because we can not afford to not have access to it again because it was not kept” I cut in

    Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Four Annabelle _ Brooklyn went to get me food and she came and told me, “You should come to the dining room to eat your meal because we can't keep Travis in the parlor alone.” “Travis is still around?” I was surprised to hear that because I thought he was going to leave after he dropped us off. “Yes, he is. He has just been sitting in the parlor.” On hearing that Travis was still around I felt bad because I didn't mean to treat him like he wasn't important to me. I stood up after realizing that and made my way out of the room with Brooklyn. Brooklyn stopped me in the corridor and said, “We are going to find Johnson. Please don't push all of us away because of what is going on. I know this can be so hard for you but I need you to know that it's so hard for everyone also and seeing you in this state makes it harder for us. I'm sure the reason why Travis has not gone is because he's as bothered about his son as you are but he's deciding to be here fo

    Epilogue Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Six Annabelle_ Months after the nightmare I had with Henry. I woke up in my new home with the perfect peace of mind I had always wanted. My life was in a better shape and even though It wasn't perfect, I was living the future I had always dreamed and hoped for. I stood in front of the large windows in the parlor, looked out of it and took a very deep breath. “Come back here! If I catch you, I will eat all your candy.” “You won't catch me then!” Johnson was running after Norah. It was not going to be my first time experiencing such as they have both been best of friends since we all moved in together. “I've told you two. No running around.” I said and shook my head. Travis was the one handling the major companies owned by my dad. He and my dad had become very close following the incident with Henry. Travis held his suitcase, walked down the stairs of our new home and said, “Anna, do you know where my car keys are? I couldn't find them

I walked out of it and snuck to the back of the several police vans that were parked in the compound. I was on the lookout for Alex because I wasn't sure of who to trust. I saw Henry and hid behind the car. I couldn't afford him to see me and then come up with another lie that he wasn't the one behind my kidnap. Someone touched me from behind and I lost my breath for a while. I turned back slowly towards the person and found that it was Alex. I took a deep breath of relief and hugged him. “What happened?” He asked, concerned. I was still trying to get my breath, when he yelled, “Medics, medics.” And the whole attention drifted towards us. Immediately, I could see them putting handcuffs on his hands and leading him into the car like the criminal that he was. “Travis, Travis is badly injured. He has lost a lot of blood.” Those were the first words I said to Henry so they could go a

I saw him but I was not fully conscious.I didn't know what to do to get us out of his place but I knew that if we did not try to get help from the cops or whoever was around, things would get worse for us all and Travis could die.“Travis,” I called out to Travis who lay in his blood on the floor with his eyes swollen. I wasn't even sure if he was still alive. “Travis, can you hear me? Travis!” I yelled. I couldn't afford his death.“Yes, I can hear you.” He said in a very low voice. I knew he was losing a lot of blood and he was in severe pain.“Can you loosen me? I know it's hard for you to get up but if you can try, it would help us out. We can't stay here. Now is our time to get out of this house because I can hear people walking back and forth in his house. I'm sure they are looking for us.” I said to him to encourage him to get up. Travi

    Chapter One Hundred and Sixty-ThreeAnnabelle_All I saw was the blood of Travis spilling on the floor like someone had made an incision on a bottle.I picked a cloth that I saw in the room and used it to tie around his arm. I was very displeased with Henry as he stood and watched me take care of Travis' hands unremorsefully.“What has gotten into you? Why are you doing all this?” I asked with so much pain in my heart. I couldn't understand how Henry became the way he was all of a sudden.“Get back to your seat and tie yourself at this moment, Annabelle.” He yelled at me. “You should not have pushed me to the wall all these years. You are the reason why I'm like this. Yes, it's all your fault.”Travis tried to help himself up from the chair I sat him on so that I could help him with his hand and reduce his bleeding. The cloth I had used to tie his hand was filled in no time and I could see that Travis was losing a lot of blood at that time.“Let's take him to the hospital. You know he

    Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Two Travis_I broke into the house through Henry's kitchen window after I was sure he had gone out of the kitchen.I walked to the slap where knives were kept and I picked one very sharp one.“This should do a good job,” I said and hid the knife behind my back.“What you don't understand is, I'd catch a grenade for ya!” I could hear Travis as he sang in his voice to the song he played out. I used that opportunity to search around the room for any sign of Annabelle and Johnson.“Annabelle! Annabelle!” I whispered as I entered every part of the room downstairs.Then while walking on the corridor, I walked on a part of the floor that felt like something was beneath it.I went back to look at the stairs to be sure I could still hear Travis playing his song, which he was before I went down to check what it was.“This very strange man. Heaven knows where he kept Annabelle.” I tried to open the thing but I couldn't get how it was being handled. It had a complex

    Chapter One Hundred and Sixty OneTravis_I received a call from an unknown number. It was very late at night. I had thought it was probably Annabelle because I had been expecting her to call me but I did not receive any calls from her.When I saw that it was unknown, I did not take the call because I was still hurting from the fact that Henry was playing the hero when he did not help to find Johnson at all from the onset. “He's my son. She's supposed to allow me to come along irrespective of what Henry was going to say or do. Don't I deserve to see him too?” I said to myself inwardly.Norah had slept off on my leg. We sat together in the parlor watching a movie.My phone kept ringing and ringing so I became forced to pick up the call. I did not say anything after picking up the call.“Can you hear me?” The person whispered and it made me curious. I placed Norah's head properly on the chair and stood up to receive the call in a place where she would not be disturbed.“Who is this?” I

    Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Annabelle_ I was scared that Henry might hurt me so I began to yell at him before he got closer to me, “Henry, what is wrong with you? Do not try anything funny. I'm warning you. You know how this will end. It will surely end badly for both of us. Just let me leave peacefully.” “You are not leaving through that door. Not today and not until you sign the wedding document.” He said and got closer to me. He pulled me with force to himself and began to kiss my body against my will. “Get off me! Get off!” He disgusted me but he held me so strong. It was very hard for me to move my body away from him. It was as though he wasn't the same Henry I had known. “Stop it, now!” I continued to shout at him but he would not let me go. I stretched my hand to reach the vase that was used to decorate his parlor. I was able to reach it and I slammed it on his head with all the force I had. I didn't know what to do next and he did not give me any option. All that was

We had to drive for a long time for us to get to Henry's place. “Why does it look as if Henry is not around?” We were able to get into the house because the gate was not locked. “It's very strange that Henry's gate is open. He never opens his gate.” I said to Brooklyn who was driving the car.“Just be patient. It's late already and he was expecting you. So why wouldn't he leave his gate open?” I knew Brooklyn was tired of hearing all my complaints.“I don't feel good about this honestly. Something is wrong somewhere.” I said to Brooklyn, “Don't drive to the front of the building itself. Park around here.” Henry's compound had some gardens and big trees that one would go through before one would get to his house. I just wasn't comfortable with the way I felt.She sighed but did as I said.“I'd go in by myself alone. You should stay in the car in case anything bad happens.”Brooklyn ga

It was a more beautiful apartment than the one that he lived in. “This apartment is nice. You guys could have lived here instead of where you're presently living though.” Brooklyn said. I was surprised she said that out loud so I turned to look at her.Travis smiled and said, “Well, Samantha loves her things to be perfectly the way she likes them. She fixed it several times, that's why it looks as good as this.” We got out of the vehicle and we could tell that Johnson was not in that building because everything there was so calm but we walked into it irrespective of how the environment felt, leaving Brooklyn and Norah alone in the car.Travis unlocked the door and led me into the room. “I don't think anyone is here at the moment but we can search the apartment to see if there might be any lead in the house,” Travis said to me as he walked into the living room
