An Unexpected Discovery (I)

While I was eating I could feel a stare but I completely ignored it and continued eating. Now it was time for dessert and I was totally looking forward to it. They ordered only tea and I ordered my favorite "apple tart". Charles seemed to be confused it looked like he remembered my choices and his eyes showed some kind of emptiness while I was engrossed in my thoughts I didn't notice that I was looking at him then suddenly I heard someone's cough and that is when I came to my senses. I quickly looked down and waited for my dessert but was taken back from her question. Samantha (the woman whom Charles is married to) spoke " what is your birthplace, Miss Alena?

I became stressed but answered her anyway, I said "I am not from here my birth took place in Osaka and I currently live in Tokyo where I work for Mr. De... Damon" with this I smiled at her and looked at my apple tart that arrived. I smelled the aroma it was spreading and took the first bite and sank in my seat. To my behavior Demon coughed and become alert and sat up. They started laughing and Samantha said, " you are quite funny Miss Alena". I smiled and said "its hard to find people funny instead of cunning these days" and began digging into my dessert.

After we were done we bid goodbye to them and left for the hotel, our flight was in the evening so we had time. I wanted to visit my old house which I used to live before, so I told Demon "I have somewhere to go, I will meet you at the airport". But he said, "no just come to the hotel, we will leave from here". I nodded and went ahead to hail a cab. I told the address to the driver and it took 45 minutes to reach there. I paid the driver and turned to see the small house and it looked the same when I left here everything. All memories of mine came rushing to my head and started running in my head in the form of slid share. Tears rolled down my cheek and I closed my eyes and let it flow until I felt better. I came inside and found the door was open and I saw the place looked exactly the same just like before only the people were no more there. I saw an old lady who was cleaning the shelf, she saw me asked: "do you need anything miss". I asked her "is it your house? She replied, " no young lady, I am the caretaker of this house, it has been deserted for a long while now, actually, the owner of this house doesn't leave here and the most surprising part is that he doesn't want to sell it also". I got puzzled that "who is this he" she is referring to, so I asked " who is the owner? But before she could reply my phone ranged and I take a look and found it was Demon so I had to pick. Before I could say anything he roared "do you have any idea of the time, if you didn't reach quickly, we will miss the flight". I replied" yes I am getting there as soon as possible" and left hurridely. While I sat in the cab I didn't notice that someone was following me and after traveling for somewhile a car came and crashed in front of the cab. I was shocked to death before I could react 2 men came from the car, shoot the driver and dragged me to their car. I started shouting for help the suddenly a hit landed to my head and i faint unconscious, tears rolled down my eyes and I felt like dying again.
