In the kitchen, Mervin was standing before the cooker with a turning stick in his hand. He had an apron tied in his waist, and some strands of his hair were stuck to his face. He was feeling hot and was sweating. He stilled into the pot gently before walking to one of the cabins. He opened the cabin and took out two bowls. Reaching the cooker, he picked up a serving spoon and dishes out a little portion of the food into one of the bowls. Mervin dropped the serving spoon before picking up a soup spoon and dug into the bowl. "Mmmh," he moaned. A smile of satisfaction appeared on his face.

The echoes of laughter that once filled the house were replaces by deadly silence.It had been more than a month since Chloe and her sisters vanished, yet the pain in her heart felt as fresh as the day she lost them.She opened the door to Chloe's room.

It was a Monday morning, the airport bustled with people moving to and fro. Some dragging their luggage carriers while some with small traveling bags in their hands. Outside the entrance, all types of designed cars pulled out then zoomed off. The airport was filled with deafening noise.Few moments later, a Rolls Royce and a black jeep come to a halt.Four men in black suits alighted from the jeep, two spread out and one walked to the Rolls Royce and opened the passenger's seat while the other man stood guard as Tranny and his parents alighted from the car.A faint sigh escaped Tranny partly parted lips and his eyes roamed around the surroundings.

At a moment she wished she could just turn back and go home, but she didn't want to behave like a coward."If I turn back now," she thought, "I’ll just be dragged into the mess when Mervin’s not looking. I can’t let that happen."She took a deep breath then pushed forwards..Earlier that morning, Mervin had left for work, and a few hours ago, she received a call from Mrs. Brooklyn. Her mother-in-law had asked to meet her at the café at 2 p.m., "Don't tell my son" her words were clear.Crystal knew this meeting should be unpleasant, but she couldn't refuse.
