The Tale of The Mermaids Locket

Chapter 7

(Aaron's P.O.V.)

I ran to the hospital. In my mind I was praying she was there. I had no clue where else she would go.

I raced to the hospital and burst through the door. I ran to the front desk and asked the lady if she saw Zoe come in.

"Have you seen my little sis? We came in earlier and she asked about Beatrice Walker." I said.

"No, I'm sorry. I haven't seen here." the lady replied never looking me in the eye.

She was lying to me. I know she was. She had never looked me in the eye and had hesitated to answer me.

"You're lying." I said. She immediately went bright red in the face she knew. I had caught her bluffing.

"I-I I don't know what your talking about." she stuttered.

"Yes, you do! You know exactly what I'm talking about!" I yelled at her.

People started to stare at me.

"Son, I don't k-know. I'm sorry." she said.

I was getting angry. Her face was bright red and she was stuttering too much.

"Ma'am, if you don't tell me where my little sis is-" I started.

"SECURITY!" she yelled before I could finish.

"Better try next time, Son." said one of the men that dragged me here.

"NO! I will find my little sister!" I screamed on the verge of tears.

"Yea, right kid. Go complain to your momma." said the other one.

"Can't do that. She's in there!" I yelled pointing to the hospital.

"Go look for her then." said the men walking back into hospital.

"That was unfair!" Noah yelled behind me.

"You followed me here?" I asked spinning around.

"Duh, I wouldn't leave a friend hanging." He said.

I laughed.

"Where is she? I can't think of any other place she would go." I said sitting down.

"We could go to the cops." Noah suggested.

"No, they wouldn't know." I said shaking my head.

"What about the river. She's always talking about sneaking out at night and going to there for a while." Noah said.

" WAIT WHAT! SHE SNEAKS OUT AT NIGHT!" I yelled.

"Oops. Thought you knew." Noah said embarrassed

"Come on!" I yelled yanking his arm.

"The river is the other way." Noah said.

I turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

"Come on!" I yelled again.
