Book 2: In the Life of Mia: College Chapter 69
My thoughts were starting to get the better of as I had things flipping through my head wondering what would happen if I couldn't help this guy who was obviously just hurting and wanted to blame everyone for his parents death. "Why though I am missing something it can't just be because he was torn from his sister and moved to Russia.. only because I'd think she would have been a victim of his too, but then again... ugh I don't know... he was 10 and he remembers them fighting about someone... so that person is the link to this but who were they fighting about.. the daughter... another man or woman... was there an affair? I really need to find him and talk to him... I am assuming that is what he wants.. I have to look at those letters..." I thought to myself. I had remember taking mental shots of all the envelops but they were scattered so far and in between. Bailey pulled to a stop causing me to snap out of my own little world. "What's happening right now?" I asked and looked around and found that we were just outside my parents’ gates. "Are you absolutely sure about this? No going back.... as for the other thing... being done as we speak" Bailey informed me. I nodded and he nodded too and pulled up to the gates and a second later they were opened, and I knew my father would be hoping I would come along. Bailey pulled up to the doorstep and got me out of the back and in the house quickly.
The whole house seemed quite with not a soul insight and I was surprised how quite it was even though I knew the house was pretty full even now. I also knew my parents would have been up on the 3rd floor so I would not hear them. Then I wondered how many people might have been there, "Shit... so we know who's all even here I was not paying attention to any extra vehicles...." "Just go up..." Lola nudged me staying with Bailey to keep watch. I took the elevator that shot me straight up and the doors opened to the sound of my mother screaming and my father crying. "Oh geese please.... No...." I cried out running towards the sound. I came around the corner just as my little brother was coming out the shoot and all I could do was cry when he started to cry. My mother had yet to register that I was even there along with everyone else. I stood close to the doorway incase getting out of there quickly was what needed to happen. My father took his newborn son in his arms after my grandfather wrapped him up in a towel. "Hello....son...how about we meet your mommy" he was now in full on tears joining my mother on the bed.
My mother pulled down the sheet and let her boobs just fall which they didn't go far since she was not as gifted as me. She put my brother right on and tried to feed him. Her laugh told me he was not getting the hang of it quite yet, but once he did, she jumped. "Whoa... well than...I doubt we'll have a problem with feeding this go round" she smiled looking at my father. I saw my grandparents gathering around my parents showering them with love but also protection. "He's what they needed to completely heal... you can feel it right?" Ethan was now different that our little brother was here and very aware of the happiness as was I as he stood next to me. I agreed and stepped away from the doorway to head back down and just leave since no one would be the wiser. I was halfway down the hall when the elevator had come up and I ducked into the room just diagonal from it. The doors opened and out stepped Sharene so beautiful and I could hardly hold back my happiness seeing her. She too had a smile and figured she had seen Bailey and Lola and that's what brought her up, but then again, she could have heard the screaming of my mother and brother. I let her walk pass and felt my phone vibrate on my pocket, pulling it out I saw it was a text from Bailey. "You about done? We really should go before we don't have any other options... say goodbye." "Ummm I didn't even go in stayed out in hall and then ducked in a bedroom when I heard the elevator and... do you know Sharene is here?" I texted back.
The phone vibrated again, and Bailey was now yelling, "SO WHY ARE YOU NOT DOWN HERE NOW...WHY DID WE EVEN COME?" "Chill out I’m coming but now I have to see them ok so give me 5-10 mins I promise I'll be down" I texted back and stuffed the phone in my back pocket. I left the bedroom and walked down the hall back to my parents’ room. I gave a light tap on the now cracked opened door, "Hey... sorry to bother you all... I came as soon as I could, but this has to...." "MIA....." my mother cried out which caused my brother to do the same. Sharene turned around so fast I caught her in my arms as she almost fell. "Hi.....Shar...." I whispered and placed her backup right before going to my mother’s side. "Hi mommy... I—I can't stay long but I promise I'll be back to see this little guy when I can ok... I love you very much!" I prayed wishing I could tell them all what was going on but was thankful for my mother’s walls since I knew she would only try to stop me or help if she could. Sharene was trying not to cry as I had barely said a word to her, and my time was up when Bailey had already texted me and was now at the bedroom door. "Ma'am, Sir congratulations... Mia it's time!" he was a tensed up, ball of chaos and came towards me. My father understood and I understood his look too along with
my grandfathers as there was nothing else, they could do.
They also knew they would not be able to stop me so the last thing I did was lean down kiss my brother and whisper. "I'm always going to be here for you no matter what... don't let mommy and daddy name you something stupid " I spoke that last part a little louder so they could hear me. I kissed my mothers’ cheek and then hugged my father. My grandfather hugged me to with my grandmother clueless to what was happening along with my mother who was just too tired and had the happy new baby glow that I didn't want her to worry. "I just have things to finish up before I can come back here.. I'll try and hurry..." I promised them turning away and heading towards Bailey. Sharene walked towards me and I stopped for half a second and shook my head. "Don't... I can't do this right now and trust me you being mad at me is a lot better for the both of us....I'm sorry" I sighed and left her there crying. Bailey got us out and away from the house as quickly as possible with me not even bothering to look back. I now had to focus on the man who was planning on making my life a living hell if I did not find him. "Did he call or anything yet? I need answers so if he hasn't I need to add more bate and come out of hiding... and before you argue just listen... he is doing this because he is tired and needs answers... it's not about these victims nor do we know that all of them are his... now that we have clues of the older photos being of his family... we can focus on the shit we gathered from professor Sheffield because he had to have known more which means now we look into his parents life and sisters for him and see where he lines up!" I really needed to have answers quicker.
Bailey drove and drove for what seemed like ever until we were now outside a gate and a massive house. "It's another of Leona's, as for our location... Georgia" Bailey informed after morning had come waking me from a sleep, I had not realized I had been in. "Ummm....ok" I yawned, with my body feeling so tired and weak. "This is not what I had in mind but I guess it is what it is... so how about we all get some real rest" I smiled sleepily even though I had other things on my mind as I scoped out the layout as we entered through the gates. I still was not confident on my ability to transport especially when I was in a place that I had never been in before. "What are you planning Mia?? You better not try something stupid that is only going to get you killed!" Ethan groaned so loud making my eardrums want to bleed. "Jesus crazy calm down I'm not..." I even though he knew me more than anyone else did. Leona was there when the back door opened and came towards me. "How did it all go? Is he ok and how's mother father... you know what I mean..." she was all over me when I caught her eagerness in her tone. "Well I was there for the whole thing but they didn't even see me which was fine... Sharene was there... she was crying when I left since I could not stay and just talk for a min. Anyways show me to bed….ha-ha to a bed I mean that I can get sleep until Billy Jo answers my not so subtle call basically bating him..." I rolled my eyes at the whole thing and waited for someone to give me answers but knew there would not be anything. "Ok well than please until we get something else or I can figure this out before someone else dies in less than what 12 hours..." looking at my watch remembering the time he had given us.
