1.2.2
Trespassing."Just paddling on his instincts without any sense of direction. Tyler felt his feet freeze against the strong grip pressing on his ankle that drove him stressed in an instant. Toiling further from his limit Tyler finally managed to push his nostrils above to let in some fresh air.
Gathering his courage soon enough he lowered himself to faintly feel the presence of a body floating underneath. Further lowering himself down to match the altitude when he noticed the dark shade, Tyler deeply concentrated on the figure, still not able to sum it up. He finally decided to work for the situation immediately.
~~~"Wynn, I have waited enough for both Tyler and Monty out and now I am at the brink of my limits." Spoke Umber with a deeply shaken accent as she tried harder not to sob.
"Maintain yourself, Miss Penelope. We are all aware here. It all started back while he was still connected to call with me. And I heard a deep splash before everything went down." Spoke the auto-tuned male voice
"Why didn't you inform us before Wynn, things could have gotten much better. You don't have any clue what I am going through." Spoke Umber still feeling emotionally exhausted as tears fell freely across her soft cheeks. Narrowing her gaze to where Tyler disappeared her vision landed on what felt like a childish reflection dressed in white completely submerged in the shallow water.
"I tried but couldn't connect to your network, so I contacted Leon and Veronica instead." Spoke Wynn in concern.
"Getting off-guard by Wynn's voice. Umber lost her sight of that figure.
"Calm down Umber, and hand me the phone." Spoke a familiar voice that turned Umber's expression back to usual.
"Hello Wynn, it's me Tyler. I am fine over here and everything is settling to normal but I want you to bring Dr. Monrey when you come here." Spoke Tyler in a much calmer yet serious approach. Umber hugged Tyler right away when Tyler approached her and took away the phone. Tyler smiled at her deeply.
"We are doing enough but that doesn't support at all." Voiced Noah far from the speaker with more concern.
"Everything's mess over here, I want Leon, to come over here." Spoke Noah in concern she immediately grabbed the phone from Tyler's hand. Disconnecting the call and returning the phone to Tyler. Gazing down at his vibrating mobile screen he noticed the call from Leon.
"Hello, Mr Leon is there any trouble?" Questioned Wynn with his doe-shaped eyes wide open.
"I can imagine the crises that followed the incident. Wynn, I want you to take responsibility for their food as long as they are staying there and specifically for tomorrow. Ask, and assist them with everything as they wish. I have contacted Mrs. Quinton, and she had promised to assist you along with the ride." Spoke Leon on call.
~~~"Would you stay alongside for our assurance?" Asked Umber. To which Tyler responded positively with a grin.
"We adore your help and may I know who you are." Questioned Noah in her curiosity. Hesitating to speak the lady spoke
Annie Albert.
Changing her facial expressions Noah pulled her hand in the pocket in an attempt to find her phone. "What happened Noah," spoke Olivia narrowing her gaze towards her.
"We are right in front of our suspect." Noah hummed to Olivia, in a very low whisper. "Please do not bring this up now, it will affect our teamwork goals. We will go constructive on her." Hummed Olivia almost making Noah irritated by her response. Noah silently gritted her teeth out of her unease. She stared away from Olivia, knowing what she replied her to. Learning about her anxiety, Olivia considered observing Annie without making her attempt obvious.
Seeing off Annie, they parted their ways in the dark. Annie took a trial facing the complete opposite side when compared to their way of the cottage. Reaching the cottage they felt pretty exhausted from the long tiring day.
~~~"Olivia, I know I can be rushed with my emotions at times, but I still don't buy your idea of stopping me." Muttered Noah in a lower voice than usual. Her deep blue eyes reflected tiredness with her blonde loose strands spread beautifully around her fragile angelic face.
"Investigating leads is always crooked rather than obvious. Sometimes we have to restrain ourselves to learn more than plan out immediate actions.
I waited to proceed coz I wanted to observe her well before coming out to confront and I felt that this could still be the worst time to come out about." Spoke Olivia, with her cold hazel gaze fixated on the dark ceiling. Turning to her right, she observed Noah fast asleep on the hard wood flooring next to her. Turning to her left she glanced at Umber who was prettily curled up to sleep. With her gaze caught on the still unconsciously laid body of Monty that was behind Noah, Olivia narrowed her gaze at Tyler who was asleep further right next to Monty. Tyler was asleep while being seated on the floor with his back pressed against the cold wooden wall.
Feeling tired herself she slowly shut her hazel eyes.
~~~"With a small amount of moonlight reflecting in her warm ash iris, Umber calmly glazed over everyone fast asleep on the hardwood. But at the narrow end of her gaze towards the other side, something caught her off-guard.
The green fierce, cold yet innocent eyes peeked through the wide-open door. Revealing itself against the dim-lit candlelight, he walked like an innocent lad covered in golden light.
The lad had a typical short brunette hair. But his eyes revealed his anxiety. How can someone so young and innocent have such a longing and cold gaze?
Dressed in a white plain button-up that matched his fair skin and dark short pants. With small white socks and black shoes. He smiled brightly unable to brush off his shallowness.
"Mom, is that you?
Mommy come let's play.
I miss playing with you." His innocent voice was most terrifying to hear.
