Amelia:

As soon as i see luscious' wife with Paul i lose it. I lunge at her

and grab a handful of her weavon, pulling hard before Paul pull me

away.

"what are you doing amelia?" he ask and i throw a fierce glance at him.

"what have you people done with my daughter? You and your evil

husband! Where is Sarah?!" i scream like a deranged woman.

"what are you talking about?" she ask from behind Paul.

"After prostituting me from my teenage age and taking me away from my

daughter, you can still stand in front of me and ask me that? Hell!

What are you doing here with my husband?" i ramble. I see her throw

Paul a questioning look.

"Amelia is your husband's niece, dont you know her?" Paul say to her

and she gasp.

"Oh my God . Amelia. Wait, she is your ex wife also?" she ask Paul who

nod solemnly.

"That makes her sarah's mother. My God. I have been telling the poor

child to call me her mother when my ex husband ruined her real

mother's life?" she grab her head suddenly and stagger. Paul catch her

with his arm wraped around her waist and i see the familiarity of the

hold as he help her walk into the living room

. There is definitely

something between this two but i am not interested in knowing that

right now. Who knows if she is using Paul to get to my daughter. As i

cross the threshold i notice a suitcase close to the door.

"who owns this?" i ask Paul. Why would a suitcase be lying here like

this? Paul look to where am pointing and i notice his eyes go wide.

"Isn't that sarah's suitcase Margaret?" he ask the woman who is

currently sitting on the couch.

"Yea. Its sarah's. Why is it there? Sarah?!" she call out but there is

no answer. I am beginning to panic. I dont know what this means. What

have they done to my child?

"Sarah!"i call out too. Paul stands up and hurry upstairs probably to

check her room.

"I'll call her" Margaret says and start dialing on her phone. I bite my

lips nervously as the call rings off.

"she isn't picking up" she says

"well call her again!" i yell at her not minding how rude i sound. I

just need to make sure Sarah is safe. My intuition is screaming at me

that my baby girl is in trouble. Margaret just nods then try the

number several more times without success before Paul comes back

downstairs.

"she isn't upstairs and none of her belongings are in the room. Jake

is nowhere to be found too" he says

"i have tried calling both of them and while Sarah isn't answering,

jake's phone is switched off" Margaret says

"Jake. Where has he taken my daughter. I swear to God you guys better

provide her before i lose my mind" i scream.

"Amelia calm down. Maybe they just went--" Margaret goes to say but i

caught her off.

"She may be hurt! I can feel it, here in my heart. Call it a mother's

intuition but i tell you something is wrong. I have waited two decades

to meet my baby and now she could be hurt somewhere. God why does

nothing good ever happen to me" i bury my face in my palm and cry. I

feel strong arms go around me and bury my face in the warmth. Paul.

How i missed this.

"We need to find her Paul. She is your daughter too" i sob out.

"i know. We will find her" he assures me. He pulls away and look into my eyes.

"I have let my daughter down too many times but this time, i won't. I

swear to you amelia" he says then brush away a tear from my face with

his thumb.

The air between us fizzle with chemistry but it is broken when

Margaret clear her throat loudly. We move apart quickly.

"Your phone has been ringing for a while Amelia" she says and that's

when i notice my phone is vibrating in my hand. Its micheal.

"My God amelia, why haven't you been picking your phone?" he says as

soon as i connect the call.

"Am sorry. Was um busy" i look up to Paul who is now holding Margaret.

His eyes are fixed on me though.

"Margaret did you hear what i just said? Margaret!" micheal yell and i

bring my attention back to the call.

"If this is about not meeting Sarah -" i go to say but he cut me off.

"Amelia. Sarah has been captured." he says and breathe leave my lungs

"wh-at?! How?"

"Luscious just called me. He said if you dont come back, he would kill

her. I dont know how he knows about our connection but he does. Amelia

you have to leave before you get hurt"

"leave? Are you out of your mind? I can't leave my daughter again. We

have to get her back mike. Please" i whisper so as not to alert Paul to

the situation. The last thing i want is for Paul to also get involved

in this.

"I am not in warri right now and my hands are tied. lets call the

police. Please"

"No we can't. He would kill her if he finds out. How do i meet with

him? I dont know how but i have to get her from him. He wants me for

whatever twisted reason so he will get me. As long as Sarah is safe"

"dont be naive Amelia. Do you think he will just hand her over to you?

We have to come up with a plan" he says and i nearly lose my mind in

distress.

Read " To Hate Emmanuel Johnsons " by the same author ( Ameh juliet )

. Who knows what Sarah will be going through while mike come

up with his blasted plan.

"You come up with a plan while i meet with him. How do i get to him?" i

ask and i hear him sigh. He probably knows my mind is made up.

"according to what he said, you will be getting a text with a

location. Please dont go Amelia. Call the cops. Please -" i dont let

him finish before i end the call. I ball my hands into fist and grit

my teeth in anger. Luscious is going to regret this. I came here to

end him, this will just push it up a bit.

"Amelia what is going on? What that news about Sarah?" Paul ask me and

i try to smile but am sure it comes out as a grimace.

"i have to go. Work calls. Goodbye Paul" i say and walk out quickly

before he suspects a thing.

My phone alert me of a text and i click on it to see an agrees of

where to meet luscious.

This is it.

Luscious is going down even though i die trying.

I pat my breasts to make sure my pink beratta pico gun is secured.

Luscious won't know what hit him.
