Adam Jones
The day passed by with us calling our relatives, friends, and Anna's colleagues, but she was nowhere there. Uncle and Rita were very worried. We didn't go for a police complaint cause she mentioned in her letter that she's not in the mood to be with us right now and that needed some space. Then, we started talking about all the other unknown places she could be.
"What does she like? Like a lot?" Dad asked.
"Umm...bringing crimes to light and giving the victims justice. Oh, and being friendly." Ben said cause he was angry at Anna for running away like that.
"Ben. Not helping." Rita said.
"I'm trying. Right?" He asked.
"Ok fine. So, we know that she's gone out. We know she wasn't in a good state of mind. But we don't know where she is." Aunt Elena said.
"Adam, don't mind me asking but, my sister was very close to you, as we've all seen," Rita said.
"Yeah. That's true." I said. Where was she going with this?
"Did you guys have like a secret place or something?" Rita asked.
"No, nothing of that sort," I said.
"Ok, then we can rule that..." She was saying when I stopped her as I remembered it.
"No, wait! When we were kids, we used to go to this beautiful garden, and only we knew about that place." I said getting up.
"She did say in the letter that it was her favorite place." Ben pointed out.
"Where is this secret garden, Adam??" Rita asked.
"You'll see. Let's go!" I exclaimed.
And so we went to the place where our childhood memories were. The only thoughts in my head were whether she would like me to be there. And if she'll accept to be with me, again.

After 20 mins of driving and nervous thoughts in my head, we reached the place.
"Adam, you go first. We'll come after." Dad said.
"No, dad. Let's go together." I suggested.
"No Adam. Your dad's right. First talk with her. She'll only listen to you." Uncle Aaran said.
"Okay," I said.
I have to gather courage somehow. I mean I'm not scared of her. I just can't see her after what has changed between us. As I went into the garden, I saw her. There she was sitting, so cutely, reading a book. As I went forward, she realized there was someone and talked.
"Sorry sir, this is a private..." as she was saying, she looked up to see me, and then she said the rest "...spot."
"Hey," I said.
"Hi. What are you...?" She was going to ask when I completed her sentence.
"Doing here?" I asked.
"Yeah. You're supposed to be getting married today." She stated.
"Well," I started and sat next to her. "...the bride had gone missing."
"Wait, really?" She asked with a slight smile on her face. "Did you find her?" She asked after her smiling moment.
"Yes. In fact, I did. Sitting in our favorite 'private spot'." I said.
"Are you crazy Adam?!?" She got up and shouted.
"Why should I be?" I asked her with a smile on my face.
"I'm not gonna marry you." She said making my smile die.
