Chapter 6

" Hurry up sweetie oh you are gonna be late for the bus!" "Coming mom! Marcus is yet to come back to his senses" Don't you dare say that about your brother! He is a very sensible person " Fine mom I'll be down in a while!" Just please, try to wake your little brother! " Yes ma'am! "Kids this days, never wanting to understand the other. It's so stressful " I know that, my beautiful , staying home and taking care of the kids is really not a walk in the park. I just wish I could help out more but my impromptu cas—" Shhhh! Amy and Marc are coming down. We'll talk later when they have all gone to school" I guess you're right "

Right about what? "Oh! Good morning Amy, how was your night and also what are you talking about?" Nothing mom . Good morning dad. I hope you are not too tired after a whole night spent "auditing." Yeah, I mean yes! It was nice; I got to talk with really" influential" people to help." Yeah honey, look! The bus is here already.bye Marc, bye Amy!" (Marcus) bye bye mommy (Amy) bye Mom!" oh! My two little babies, all grown up. Take care of yourself alright?" Yes Mom!

Once the kids are gone

" Is something wrong honey? You seem very worried." Baby, there is a very slight problem and it's about Amy " What's wrong! Is she sick? Does she have a new boyfriend? Or is she getting bad grades because I'm not here to help her out!?" It's nothing of the sort, babe;the problem is that I might have slipped something about your actual job and now ,Amy is suspicious of us." (dad) This is bad!" I know which is why I told you to be careful about how you talk around her " True, she must not know "

Meanwhile outside the home

"Oh you are going to have a hard time doing that" let's see how you play this game,Mr Stone. See you when all is brought up in the light "

Meanwhile at Amy's school

("What could Mom and Dad be hiding? I mean we are their kids so why should they hide anything from us. Maybe they could from Marcus as he is still young;but I'm 16 and capable of handling myself. Maybe I should try asking Mo—)

(Leo) Hey Amy! You coming or what?" I'll be there in a while.

In school

" While in class, let's just say I didn't listen one bit. My mind was like chaff scattered in the wind making it difficult to accept any subject so throughout, I was spacing out. Mrs Harwin had to call my name a few times in order to get my attention and also a couple of times, Leo would pinch me really hard for me to respond to him. I couldn't take it anymore; I had to ask mom. I don't know why but there's is the tingling I get when ever I find myself finding clues and solving cases; it just makes me feel like I'm solving something that know one else has the balls to solve. It's now or never "Mrs Harwin?" "Yes Amelia '' I'm feeling a bit under the weather and I would like to seek your permission to go home early ma." Fine, just wait a while and I'll take you to the principal's office `` ``Yes! Thank you so much "

«»«»«»«»Later «»«»«»«»

"That was a little bit easy . I just said I'm sick and they let me go? Something's not right but I'll figure it out later. For now I need to solve my own problems.

Meanwhile

"Phase 1 complete. Target suspects nothing." Good job Alphared, now unleash(Phase 2). "Sure thing boss.

"Now you shall understand Stone! Muahahaha. Finally revenge at last. let's see how you play when your precious little daughter gets involved."

«»«»«»«»At home«»«»«»«»«»

"Hey mom" Amy ? You are home early " Yes Mom,I'm feeling a bit sick " Oh my baby! You looked just fine to me this morning" I'm also surprised myself. First I was in class and the next I felt like my head was brainless and I couldn't assimilate anything." Don't worry my baby, mommy will make you better soon." Mom wait!" Yes sweetie? " Mom would you tell me if I asked?" It all depends on the question Amy " Fine before I ask, is dad around?" No" So please Mom can you tell me what dad actually does for a living?" I wish I could honey but somethins are not meant to be said until the right time" when is the right time mom !? When he's retired? Please why can't you tell me!? It's to protect you"

"I don't need protection mom! I can take care of myself! You don't understand Amy, we are just trying to protect you!" Good night mom!" good night? It's just 2 in the afternoon " Look Mom I know you and dad mean well but can you please just trust me this once?"

«»«»«» In the room «»«»«»

" I know that they mean well but I can't feel at "peace" if they keep something like that from me. I will try hard to find it by myself."
