Dante looked back in shock at the sound of a familiar voice that he hadn't heard in ages.

A voice that took him years back, a voice that he had longed for and regretted losing, the one voice that had brought warmth and sunshine into his life, now seemingly lost forever.

"What's going on? Why do you look so battered? Who beat you up?" Megan asked in concern as the rest of the room stared in silence.

A huge scar ran down his face, his shirt was bloody, and he was trying to hide his hand that was bandaged.

He looked like a messed up, bloody pulp, like a huge ripe tomato that had been squashed under the wheels.

"Do you know this man?" One of the policemen who came with the group asked as he removed a document from his jacket.

"He is my ex-husband", Megan replied, still confused as to what was happening.

"Ma'am, this man is the main suspect in the kidnapping of a little boy found in the mountains", the man said in an official voice as he stretched the arrest warrant for Megan to have a lo

    Dante has just got home from the mechanic shop where he worked. Before the divorce, he worked as the Project Manager at Epic Media Company, where he was in charge of verifying the contracts brought in by agents for their artists and also sourcing for international projects.He had a large office with a view, but after being laid off from work due to anger issues and fights at the workplace, it took him quite a while before getting a job as a mechanic. On that particular day, he was alighting from his car when his phone vibrated and he saw an unfamiliar number calling him."I have a job for you", a gruff voice got him curious. He was short of money and was up for making extra dollars."Excuse me, who are you and what kind of work is it?" He asked."That is not important. I know that you are working for peanuts at the mechanic shop. After doing this work for me, I will pay you enough to make you live a comfortable life"."So what do you want me to do?" His interest piqued."I want you

    The police immediately dispatched a team to go to Dante's house to get the laptop.******Dante was not familiar with MountainView, so he had to make a stop and ask for directions to the mountain, claiming that he was there for a hike.The bottom of the mountain had sheds where hikers and mountaineers rested and grouped themselves before making their ascent.He got into the one that was nearest the mountain and placed Benny inside. After gagging Benny and tying his hands and feet, he left to make a call.He felt sorry for his boy but had no choice but to do this. He promised himself that he would make it up to him after this was over.They had been in the shed for two days.

    It was a bright and sunny day; cloudless, the kind of day Benny would enjoy in the park while eating ice cream and telling his mother endless stories about his day at school while listening to the birds chirping away. He would then run to the swings or throw around his ball, his little feet struggling to keep the ball steady as he kicked it. Because he was very sociable, he would make friends easily, always having children around him. He had always been a burbly child, full of life and loved by his teachers and classmates. He was also the most obedient child and over-intelligent for his age, grasping knowledge at an alarming rate. Megan was never worried about him when in the park as Benny was very well trained and wouldn't engage in conversation with adult strangers. In case of any sign of danger, he would quickly rush to his mother. He had a whole collection of dried flowers in the room that were displayed in a book. He would name them and arrange them according to the seasons c

    It was the day of the trial.The courtroom buzzed with a nervous energy, a stark contrast to the quiet solemnity of Benny's funeral. Megan sat stiffly, her gaze fixed on the empty space beside her, a phantom presence of her son lingering there. The weight of grief had settled into a dull ache, a constant reminder of the void left by Benny's absence. Her face was pale, her eyes hollow, reflecting the sleepless nights and the constant replay of seeing her Benny in a casket.Cindy sat beside her, offering silent support, her hand resting lightly on Megan's arm. She had never left Megan's side because the doctor said that Megan needed round-the-clock monitoring so she wouldn't fall into depression.Athena, ever observant, watched the proceedings while flanking Megan's other side, now her personal bodyguard; a decision she made on her own. Ever since she went to MountainView for vacation, she had been thinking of a career change because her heart couldn't handle the body count, espec

    "Mummy", Benny called out as he giggled.Megan smiled and opened her arms wide, bracing herself for the hug.Benny would always run into her with the assurance that his mother would pick him up in a twirl going round and round until they both got dizzy.Mother and child hugged and laughed as they rolled in the grass."I love you Mummy", Benny said as he looked into his mother's eyes without smiling.Alarmed, Megan sat on the grass and held her son."I love you too, Benny, but why the serious face?" Benny would either be giggling or hugging his mother's neck and smiling when telling his mother that he loved her, but right now, he had an odd expression that was very unlike him.He got up from his mother's lap and gave her a serious look, then ran a few feet away."Mummy, catch me if you can," he said then took off, laughing.Megan ran after him and caught up with him, lifting him in the air."Mummy, I'm sorry I can't be with you anymore".

    Megan and Cindy were having their afternoon tea by the pool. They dismissed the maid that was serving them tea as Megan never liked being waited upon cause she always felt that it was demeaning to the maid to stand by their side as they ate.They had spent the better part of the morning house-hunting. Cindy had been urging Megan to move in with her which was a tangible way for Cindy to show her love and support, offering Megan a chance to create a new space where she could begin to heal. It was not about forgetting Benny, but about finding a place where the pain might be a little less sharp, where Megan could rebuild her life piece by piece.The house was turning into a live tomb for Megan and she could hear the echoes of Benny's laugh in the silence and could even sense his hug.Many at times, she would wake up screaming Benny's name while desperately searching for him in the dark. She knew she was going insane due to the loss, and if she wasn't careful, it would be full-blown, lead
