SAVE ME

Chapter 29

Morgan Smith

When I was done talking to Ann and making sure that she was okay, I told George to continue where we planned to go.

"I told you that she's fine, you didn't have to get all worried and freaked out" Ricardo nudged me lightly and I rest my head on his shoulder.

"Yeah, yeah, I was just worried because she is always the one calling to ask about my whereabouts and telling me if she is not home or reasons she wouldn't be answering my calls" I explained to him.

"I understand," he said then put his arms around my shoulder as he drew small circles on my arms and his other hand held his phone as he went through it.

I took out my phone to search for the song Ann taught me the other night. I opened a browser and typed 'Order My Steps' song then press search. Numerous search results sprang forth and I scrolled to look for the original artist.

I saw and watched a few videos that showed up. I just love how smooth and peaceful the song sounded to my ears. It was like a request being sent to someone you trust to look after you in all aspects and I guess she sings this song to her GOD who she speaks to from time to time.

There are questions that fill my head about her GOD and how he works and how he hears people, do they have to take turns while they ask him for something? Is there a particular time everyone is assigned to talk to him so that he hears them? There are billions of people in this world so I am just curious.

Maybe I will have to ask her about it when we all get back from our outings.

I plugged in my earpiece as I played it on my phone then hummed the song and moved my head to the rhythm. I started singing as it played over and over again, I felt Ricardo's gaze on my head and I leaned away from resting on his shoulder to look at him wearing a smile.

I smiled back and unplugged the earpiece "What?" I laughed shyly then he just stared at me.

"Nothing, I have known you for a long time and didn't know you can sing this well," he said and I blushed.

"Well, thank you sire" I salute and he grinned as he shook his head.

"You could go for a talent hunt you know? All those big talent shows happening here and the minor ones, your choice" she shrugged.

"True" George agreed, Amelia looked at him for some seconds before looking out the window.

"Thank you, guys," I thanked them and put my phone back in my pocket when we got to our destination. George parked his car and we all got out while he locks the doors.

I stretched as I looked around the small cabin and its surroundings. Nothing seems to have changed since we were here last, just the grass seems to have overgrown and we might have a new neighbor from across us.

This is our relaxation palace as we like to call it. When we started hanging out with each other, we looked around for spots we could mark as our territory so that we can come there whenever we wanted to chill together or be away from everyone or from work, to relax and all that.

George was the one who found this place when he was driving home from his grandma's house, his car broke down and it was getting late. There weren't any more buildings than what is around here and it was kind of deserted so he walked up to this cabin to see if someone was living there but he was stopped by the caretaker who he explained his predicament to and he was given a room with a promise that his car would get fixed the next day.

He kept in touch with the caretaker and informed him of the owner's decision in selling the house. We gathered up the money and bought it and since then it became our secret hideout. We did a few renovations to suit our taste over time.
