Chapter 2

The bell rang. School time is over. After sending goodbyes to her friends, Sasha walks out of the school gate.

"Sasha! wait. Let's walk together" said Jay. Their house was not far from each other.

"you don't have football training today?"

"actually, i do. But,..naaah. Didn't feel like going"

Sasha chuckle.

"don't do that too often. Or you gonna get kicked out"

Seeing her smile makes him blush. He quickly face another way.

"are you free tonight?" Jay breaks the silence. "my mom cook a special dinner today,...for celebrating my sister's birthday"

"Sophia? She's turning 6 today? Oh my God.. How could i forget it....." Sasha slapped her forehead.

"So,.. Are you coming?"

"of couse! Well,.. If i was invited"

"oh. Come on! You're a part of our family, Sasha. Ask your mom to join us too"

"i will"

They arrived in front of Sasha's house.

"see you tonight!" Said Jay. Messing up her hair.

"stop! Or I'm not gonna come"

Jay laughs. He then walks away to his house.

Sasha slammed the door. Locking herself in her bedroom. Her heart beating fast.

"what? no, Don't do it! Calm down heart! No!"

"Mom? Are the preparation ready yet?" Said Jay. Coming down from his room.

"If it wasn't for Sasha, you're not even interested aren't you" Said Mrs Annie.

"no way. Of couse I'm excited for my lil sis birthday" Jay keep on fixing his hair.

"I'm gonna throw up" Sophia is standing beside him while giving him a sharp glare.

"why you, little... "

DING DONG.

'she's here already?' Jay walks to the front door. He takes a deep breath.

Sasha smiles when he sees Jay right in front of her. "My mother is not coming. She need to work for a night shift at the clinic today"

"i see" he nodded. "well, it's fine. come. let's head inside"

"thank you"

"Sis! I miss you! Why don't you came and play with me?" Sophia is hugging Sasha in her pink princess dresses.

"I'm sorry little one. But i have works to do. I'll play with you later. I promise" She smiles. 'how cute'

"let's have the dinner, shall we?" said Mrs Annie.

 - -

"i sent you back home" Said Jay while grabbing his cap.

"no no. I'm fine. you don't have to,"

"Sasha, let him walks you home. It's late already. I'm worried about your safety"

"well... Okay" She gave up. She can't win anyway.

They both walking under the moon light. A few of the street lamp was broken and they walk in the dark.

"it's dangerous if you walk here alone"

"it's fine. I now martial arts"

"no! A girl should be protected! I don't want you to get hurt" Said Jay. Not realising that he hold her hand. "oh! Sorry"

Jay tries to let go.

"it's fine" Sasha faced down.

Jay was stunned.

'huh? what's up with -it's fine?- Are you crazy?' she was taking to herself. can't believe she just said that.

Seeing her not making any resistance, Jay intend to hold her hand, not wanting to let it go.

"we're here already"

"damn. I should just take a longer route" he kicked the air.

Sasha quickly pulls her hand. "thanks" Then she walks inside of her house.

"Goodbye...." Said Jay quietly.

.............

Her head is hurting. Are we got kidnapped? Lily tries to look around. As expected, she can't see anything. The room is pitch black and she is being tied up. What about my sister?

"Sis.... Rosie, where are you?" she whispered. Tried to hold back her tears.

"Lily? Are you okay?" Shouted Rose. Lily's voice is shaking. Is she hurt?

"Where are we? I'm scared...." She cries.

"I don't know.. But try not to panic. Okay? I'm here" Rose try to calm her sister. 'Daddy,.. Help us'

--

Ryan running aimlessly while shouting to call his sisters. "Lily!! Rose!!".

If anything happens to them, he would blame himself for leaving them alone.

"How is it? Did you see them?" Mr harry was panicked as well. But seeing Ryan shaking his head makes his heart stop beating for a second.

He grabbed his phone and called his friend, Mr Wilson for help.

Soon after that, a bunch of bodyguard came along with Mr wilson. Together with Kai and Mikael. They make the fullest effort to search for the two missing girls.

It's already 8 o'clock. But still, not even a single clue about Lily and Rose showed up.

"You and the kids should go home and rest. Let my bodyguards do the searching. It's still not 24 hours since they went missing. We can't report it to the police yet" Said Mr Wilson.

Mr Harry nodded. Although he is worried for his two little girls, but he can do nothing much in finding his daughters. All he can do is to pray for Lily and Rose's safety and hope that Mr Wilson's man can find them.

.............

She paused and her eyes stared blankly at the screen.

'I can't do this'. She feels like giving up. It's already midnight and she can hear nothing but a sound of trees rustling at the outside.

She is neither a writer nor a professional novelist. But she is doing her best to finish the novel. why? because she's writing it based on a true story. and she wants to give it to someone she trusted.

Sasha suddenly remember the scene last night. Where Jay is holding her hand. She smiled. But somehow, her smile is bitter.

"i need to finish this novel as soon as possible"
