Cohen brushed his hand over his face and relaxed his head on the sofa headrest, exhaling softly. “What are we supposed to do now?” He raised a question in a low voice.“Since we are hopeless and have no other way out, will you permit Miss Elsie to intervene now?” Ailee threw a question.The question caught Cohen unaware, and a tone fled his lips. “Hun?!” “We are in a fix now. It’s not proper to overlook anyone’s idea. Give her a chance to speak her mind. Please.” Ailee implored.“I just-” Cohen wanted to state his reason, and knowing what he might say, Bastian interrupted him.“If it’s about me, let her speak. I won’t get mad at her. Not in this kind of situation.”Cohen tightened his lips and nodded his head. “Okay, you can intervene.” He permitted.“Thank you,” Elsie directed her statement to Ailee, slightly curtsying her head. She pointed her phone to Ailee, requesting, “the contact you want to track, can I have it?”“Sure,” Ailee let out. She collected the phone from her and inpu

Elsie paced to the door and as she placed her hand on its handle, she glanced backward and ground her teeth, locking eyes with Cohen. “It’s a fucking mistake to fucking intervene in the first place! I don’t fucking care anymore!”“Fuck you and the fucking mouth you used to say that fucking statement!” She yelled and abruptly opened the door, and as she took her right foot out of the office, Cohen ran to her.He grabbed her hand and breathed out heavily. “I am sorry.” He apologized in a low voice, staring downward in guilt.Elsie turned to him and snickered. “You are sorry?” She repeated, amazed. She flung his hand away, throwing a question. “Which of the problems does your apology solve?”“You talked carelessly and now you are saying sorry? Does that change anything? You expect that to calm me down, right?”Cohen slowly lifted his head until his eyes met hers. “I am sorry.” He said again since he didn’t know any other thing to say.Elsie nodded and licked her lower lips. “It’s not your

Elsie lifted her right hand and raised her index finger staring straight into Ailee’s eyes. “I will take you to the location, but on one condition,” she stated. “If you agree to it, then there will be no problem.”Ailee gazed into Elsie with the same expression and fearlessly raised a question, showing interest. “What’s your condition?”“Tell them not to invite the police. I won’t go there with the police,” Elsie disclosed. “I don’t care about what anybody says, I repeat and will never take back my words. The people in that hood are my family, and I don’t want to cause them any harm. I can never betray my blood.”Ailee sighed. She had a minute thought and gave an alternative. “Miss, we can’t go there without the police. It’s not possible except we want to cause more harm,” she let out, explaining, “we are going there to rescue someone so it’s not possible to face them without adequate equipment. Please, think about it.”Elsie blew a heavy air through her mouth and had a serious gaze i

Ailee couldn’t go with them because she had to stay behind with Anna and carry out some assignment, so Elsie was left with no option than to go with Cohen, whose face was still causing her mind to boil with anger, and also Bastian, whom she pretended to care less about his presence.They walked out of the parking lot and Bastian led to the car park since they would be going with his car. He unlocked the car and threw the key to Elsie. “You should drive.” He uttered in an authoritative tone, walking to the other side of the car.Elsie took a step backward and without making an attempt to grab the car key, she watched it fall before her toes. “You should come back and pick it.” She declined.Bastian glanced backward. “Why?” He raised a question. “Didn’t you want to help? You should drive us so we can go there early.”Elsie crossed her hands over her chest and slightly bent to the left. “Yes, I want to help,” she said. She shook her head and corrected her statement. “No, I am already hel

Elsie drove with a fierce intensity, her eyes fixed on the horizon and her foot heavy on the accelerator, causing the car to devour the asphalt, its tires screeching in protest as it took the curves with a precision that bordered madness.She suddenly pressed down the brake and the car stopped, causing Cohen to hit his head on the front seat while Bastian almost slammed his head on the frontier.“Hun!” A scream escaped their lips, but they dared not utter another word and they kept it to themselves.“I want to take a dangerous but faster route, so be prepared for whatever that may happen.” Elsie forewarned and speedily pulled the reverse gear.Cohen and Bastian’s eyes widened, surprised. They were in fear about her warning and wished they could stop her, but they couldn’t even open their mouths to pull out a word, so they watched her reverse and drove into the dangerous street.Elsie careened the car through two streets, with a lead foot and a devil-may-care grin. She drove into the th

“Please come in.” The paddler let out, waving at Elsie to lead into the canoe.Elsie beamed. “Okay,” she said and glanced at Bastian, instructing, “Let’s go.”“Hun!” Bastian made a sound with a furrowed brow and his forehead creased.“Aren’t you going with us anymore?” Elsie threw a question, taking a concern step closer to him. She arrived beside him and, seeing his facial expression, she grabbed his arm, inquiring, “are you okay?”Bastian gently took her hand away from his arm and put it down beside her. He wore an insincere beam and nodded his head twice. “Yes. I am fine,” he lied. He noticed the smile on his face wasn’t convincing so he put in a little effort to brighten it, adding, “I was just a bit carried away, so I was surprised when you said we should get it.”“Are you sure?” Elsie said with a worried expression and even though she never wanted to show concern, she couldn’t control her hand from lifting and grabbed Bastian’s arm again. “You can stay behind if you are afraid o

After Forty minutes of Bastian staring downward with his eyes closed, afraid to open them to see water again, while Elsie was staring at the other side, avoiding eyes contact with Cohen, who couldn’t open his mouth to utter a word or intervene during Elsie argument with Bastian, the canoe arrived at the north island.“We are here.” The paddler announced.“Oh,” Elsie said. She instantly stood up in a hurry and hurried down from the canoe, showing no concern for Bastian.Bastian raised his gaze and immediately turned to look at the seaside, avoiding the glimpse of the water. He got down from the canoe and Cohen got down after him.Elsie immediately turned to the left. “This way.” She proclaimed and led the way into the area.Immediately as they entered the area, the guys they met on their ways stopped what they were doing and raised their hands to hail Elsie before she would reach their fronts and she responded to them with a beam on their face.Watching the area and how dirty it was, Co

“Stop!” He commanded and all the guys froze with their hands raised up.The guy let go of Mila, and she fell to the ground. “Ouch!” She groaned and quickly stood on her feet. She looked at the guy’s face and bent her neck. “Thank you.”The guy gave her a deadly glance and without uttering a word, he walked past her, and as he took a few steps, walking in the guys’ directions, they announced.“Boss, have you forgotten who she is? That’s Mila. The mighty detective who was responsible for your brother’s death. He killed her!”The boss’s eyes widened, and he glanced backward at her with his eyeballs turning outrageously red. “You killed my brother and you still dare allow me to save you. Hun?” He questioned in a thick tone.He veered around to her and took a step towards her and Mila took a step backward. She shook her head with fear roaming around in her eyes, her lips were quivering and she was almost unable to open her mouth to speak. “No… no. No… it’s not me,” she uttered, her voice st

-THREE MONTHS LATER-“What are you doing, Cohen?” Patricia challenged as Cohen slowly reversed the car. “Aren’t we going to pick the kid at the school anymore?”“We will.” Cohen answered as he drove into the other lane and headed toward their street.“Then why are you reversing? Why are you heading back home?” She questioned.“I forgot something at home.” Cohen informed.“What did you forget? Hun?” she asked, looking at him with a side of her eyes.“My phone.” Cohen responded.“Why must we go back to pick up your phone? It will take less than an hour to get back home. Can’t you just let’s go?” She queried.“I can’t because I am a business owner. I mustn’t stay away from my phone.” Cohen gave an excuse with his eyes fixed on the road ahead.“It’s the weekend, Cohen. No one will call you today. Stop giving excuses and let’s pick the kids. We shouldn’t keep them waiting for a long time.” Patricia said.“I’m not going because of business, but I need to pay fees before we can take the kids

Cohen discharged a deep breath as he walked out of the bathroom. He paused for a second and rounded his hands over his waist, forgetting what he wanted to do next at that moment.A thought passed through his mind and he wiped his right hand over his face with the left still on the waist.Patricia’s phone rang, and he walked to the cabinet on the bedside and picked it up. “Who could be?” He wondered with his eyes furrowed, confused, and before he could turn to the door, the call ended and a message came into her eyes.Since Patricia’s phone was always unlocked, Cohen saw the message’s content and his eyes enlarged as a surprised tone escaped his mouth. “Hun!”He bit his lower lip and after a few second thought, he reached a conclusion and instantly swiped the message to the left to delete it. He returned the phone to the bed cabinet and rushed out of the room.He arrived in the sitting room and saw his mother watching the TV while Elsie was packing their breakfast out of the kitchen an

“Who is here for me?” Anna threw a question at the security officer escorting her out of the room, showing no interest in meeting the person. The security officer opened the door for her and immediately as she sighted Patricia, she veered around.Patricia quickly stood on her feet. “Is that how to treat a guest?” She threw a question. “Shouldn’t you at least stay to hear why I am here? Your daughter, Rachel, don’t you have any message you want to pass to her?”Patricia’s words made Anna’s feet froze, and she halted for a minute before she slowly veered around and walked to the chair and sat down. “I have no message for Rachel. She doesn’t deserve a mother like me. I don’t worth to be called a mother,” she poured out. “Tell me why you are here. I don’t want to talk with you.”Patricia discharged a deep breath and sighed. She stared at Anna with a pity and despite having a lot of things in her mind, she couldn’t open her mouth to talk at the moment.Anna sighed. “Take your eyes away fro

Anna abruptly opened the door and banged in, panting. “Ma! Ma! Ma!” She shouted, running towards Patricia’s desk.Patricia was shocked, and she couldn’t utter a word. Instead, she widened her eyes and watched Anna arrived in front of her desk before she could pull a word out. “What happened?” She asked, the worried in her voice cooperating with the concern in her voice.Anna breathed heavily as she bent her back and placed her hands on her knees.“What happened?!” Patricia raised her voice. She was getting more scared by Anna’s reaction.Anna panted for another second before she raised her hand and stood straight on her feet. “It’s him…” she uttered, but couldn’t complete her statement.She pointed her thumb at her back, crossing it over her shoulder without looking backward. “It’s him…” she continued, struggling to complete her statement but couldn’t.“It’s who?” Patricia asked, with her lips already quivering. “Calm yourself and talk, Anna. What happened? It’s who? Please, talk. You’

Ailee walked into the office and stood in front of Bastian’s head. She bowed her head, holding a file in her hand. “Good morning, sir,” she greeted, but Bastian, whose head was placed on the desk, didn’t respond to her.“Good morning, sir,” she greeted again, but still no response.She furrowed her face. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself in a low voice. She observed him for a second and bent a bit to check if he was sleeping, but his eyes were wide open, making her guess he was just lost in thought.She elevated her shoulder a bit with her mouth shaped to the left a little. “What’s wrong with him?” She asked herself put the file on the desk and let out. “The president said I should give this to you.”She eyed her for another few minutes and turned around to leave, but as she took three steps forward, she halted because she was worried and couldn’t leave Bastian in that situation.“Gosh…” she uttered and discharged a soft breath and, without giving her decision a second thought

Patricia heard a knock on the floor, and she stopped pressing her laptop. She glanced at her wristwatch. “8:05 Am? Who could it be?” She wondered.She stared at the door and raised her voice so it could reach the person. “Come in.” She permitted and immediately continued pressing her laptop.“Good morning, ma.”She heard a familiar voice and instantly raised her gaze. “Cohen?!” she exclaimed with her eyes widened in disbelief, and she couldn’t say another word. Instead, she fixed her eyes on him and watched him stride closer.Cohen arrived in front of his desk and bowed his head. “Good morning, ma,” he greeted. He raised his head and crossed his hand behind him as he stared downward and slightly bent his neck to apologize. “I’m sorry I arrived late,”“I have to drop my mother at the hospital.” He exclaimed.“What are-” Patricia opened her mouth to talk, but Cohen interrupted her.“I’m sorry. I know that’s not an excuse. I shouldn’t involve family matters in business, but I have to sta

“Be careful…” Patricia cautioned Williams, who was already a few steps ahead of her out of the hospital and had been jumping around since the doctor said he was perfectly healthy now. There was no injection for him anymore.“Mom, please call Dad. This call for celebration. I am happy,” Williams let out. He stopped jumping, but couldn’t help pacing fast because he was so excited. He halted and glanced backward at his mother. “And don’t forget to invite Mr. Cohen as well. He needs to be there. I hope he is fine now and will have the strength to come.”“Sure, I will,” she agreed. She took a few steps closer to her and bent in his front. She passed the medicine nylon in her right hand to the left and placed it on Williams’s shoulder. “Williams, I know this won’t sound well with you or you won’t like it, but now that the truth is out and you know who Cohen is, you should change how you address him.”Williams furrowed his face as he raised his shoulder, stretching his hands beside him. “What

-Many weeks later-“Ma, it’s Mrs. Charlotte. She has been waiting for over two hours.” Anna proclaimed immediately as she entered the office. Patricia was working on a file, and Anna’s announcement made her halted. She raised her gaze and looked at Anna’s face. “Why did you keep her waiting?” She questioned. “You should have told her I was in a meeting.”“I did, but she insisted on staying, and Ailee told me to allow her. I even invited her to come into the office to wait for you, but she declined saying she doesn’t worth it.” Anna explained.Patricia sighed and closed the file on her desk. She stood and walked out of her seat, asking, “where is she now?”“At the third floor. She is waiting with others question,” Anna responded. Patricia had already walked to her side, and before she could add another word, Patricia increased her speed and already walked past her.Anna turned around and paced to Patricia with three steps between them. “You can stay. I will go call her.” She offered.
