I woke up in a small white room, remembering nothing of what happened before or who I even was, the only thing I knew I could do was to search for any item of identity and purpose of being in this room.
The first thing I spotted was a white towel with a red cross across the room which means I am in a hospital and I must have gotten here because of the last thing I did, But what was it? I tried to get up but my casted paralysed legs didn't like the idea of standing up and what got them casted also has to do with what happened to me last that could have taken my life.
The door suddenly opened and revealed a young lady with full ginger hair and shining green eyes looking at me. I immediately ask with fierce curiosity
"Who are you?"
She gave a huge smile and replied
"Good evening, Mr Clair. My name is Dr i Brown and you have just awoken from a two year coma"
..........................................................................................................................................................................................
I quickly slid into the isolated streets as I continuously checked all the documents repeatedly because of my fears of failing him.
The cold night air made me shiver but it reminded me of the times I ran out of my house and hid beneath parked overnight cars cause of my drunken father, a normal person would have dreaded this taught but I never said I was normal.
As I got to the front door, I kept on wondered if she survived it because I was very certain that she didn't, no normal human being could survive being burnt in a burning building.
I knocked on the door twice and a different appeared behind it.
"Who are you?"
He rudely asked as I stared at his stitched skull and bruised lip, Guessing he either got into a fight or a gruesome accident.
"I'm Santos .Where's tony?"
His looked at me with pity.
"He went to meet him"
I didn't need a further explanation, I knew he would do something sooner or later; I'd miss him but I had to get back to reality.
"I came to drop some documents for him."
"Ok, check again if everything's complete, he's in a bad mood this night"
He slowly opened the door and I entered in then followed the spiral stairs, reciting every single word I'm going to say because he neither forgives nor forget a sin.
Once I got to the top, I rechecked the bag one last time and put the necklace in the bag.
I said a small prayer then knocked the door.
"Proceed"
I quickly opened it and saw him sitting on his chair, staring at me .
"Shut the door"
I closed it and started talking.
"Good evening sir. I've brought the documents and came to announce that the job has been done."
He chuckled to himself which made shake a little.
"And the girl"
He asked humorously and I stood in silence, thinking of what to say as he was still staring at me, waiting for a reply. I quickly said
"She's gone"
He laughed loudly and walked towards the television then gave me a pitiful smile and said
"Well, let's see about that"
As he switched on the television which was on the news channel, reporting about the house.
"This house was discovered a few hours ago by some neighbours who were curious of the smoke they had perceived a few yards away"
"One of them said that reported that there was a family living there but it was only the oldest child that miraculously escaped from the scene and she is now in the hospital being treated -"
He switched it off and glared at me
''The girl's dead right?"
I was stunned to the core, Now I am very sure that I not going to make it back. I managed to shudder
"Butut, I was sure that she was in the house when –"
He shook his hand and threw a sharp knife at my stomach which made me fall on my knees before he grabbed my head then said
"You lied to me Santos and now, it's time for you to go "
He brought out a gun and put it on my head saying
'Any last words '
I glared at him
"F**k you "
He pulled the trigger
..............................................................................................................................
I stared at his body with disgust then collected the bag for the necklace which I found and kept in my drawer. A few minutes, I called Bruce to dispose of the dead body.
"Bring my phone when you're done "
I shouted as he dragged it out of the room
"That girl must not survive "
I murmured.
