The beginning of the end

I heard a knock at the door. The owl's sang their songs declaring the wee hours of the night had awoken. The hours the devil whispers into the eyed being who believes sleep is for the weak.Shaking like a leaf, I crawled out of bed.My hands firmly attached to the handle of a stick that seemed to suddenly appear.The floor squeaking as I made my way across the room to face the enemy .My whole body felt numb and weak leaving my eyes widened enough to notice an ant in the dark .On reaching the door, I didn't know what to expect on the other side.'' Would this be my last breath?'' Hesitantly,my sweaty hands caught the door handle and within no time the door creaked open.It was at this moment that I realized ,my enemy was within.All along I was just hunting my own shadows and chasing ghosts .On the bright side ,a white envelope was left at the door step.This gave me peace as I knew that insanity had not yet invaded my mind.My thoughts held me captive as the cool night breeze almost led to me shock.Who would leave an envelope at my doorstep in the middle of the night?Was it Veronica? Because as far as I was concerned she was the only person I knew and trusted at the time.Before the envelope was blown away,I managed to pick it and returned to the house before I grew suspicious of my own consciousness.

The night was rather long but the day would be longer since Veronica was covering my shift at the coffee shop.I had the whole day to myself and a lot of questions that needed answers.After hours of thinking ,I decided to open the envelope that kept me up all night.Inside it, was another small envelope that read ''MRS.ANDERSON''in bold.This name sounded very familiar.I might have heard my father mention it severally when he would take his long calls.It made me wonder where his phone might be,because I remember that he left with it the same morning he was declared dead but it was not part of his belongings that were returned.I opened the envelope and inside was a small letter that read ,''Dear Mr.Dior,It has been weeks since I last heard from you.I thought we had an agreement after all the information I gave you .You promised to protect my son and always be there for us.I was really stupid to even have believed you for a second .My son was taken away from me by them because I trusted you.If he dies I'm coming for what you treasure most. Don't forget I'm the only one who knows your secret and if it means trading my own son's life for it,consider it revealed.You brought this upon yourself Vaxon .''

What was all this really about? Who is Mrs.Anderson and what kind of agreement did she make with my father.What is this secret that made them take away her son?Am I the secret or just one of the secrets?Is someone coming for me?What was my father really up to?I had to get answers and find out if my life was really at risk.But my main question was,where would I begin?
