Their Lost Hidden Sister

47

Elena was pacing the living room. She wanted to know where her daughter was; she wanted her here at home with her family. And she wanted it now.

Valentino had been trying to get her to calm down for days and it had been to no use. He knew that they were all getting irritated and that Elena was taking it the worst.  "El, you need to calm down"

"i DON'T WANT TO CALM DOWN I WANT MY DAUGHTER TO COME BACK HOME." She had already lost Valentina once and she refused to let that happen again so she needed to find her and to get her home right now. 

"Mom"

Elena turned to see Sofia and Adriano. Mia and Jax had come to them saying there was something that they wanted to share. Something that they wanted them to know. "Mia and Jax want to talk to you."

She walked into the other room seeing the two. Confused to why they wanted to talk to her about. "Yes."

"We believe that one of the new kids is in touch with Valentina. Actively in touch; they gave us a message from her." Mia had thought about it and she knew they couldn't tell her everything, but they could give her peace about the fact that they knew Valentina was ok and that she was safe.

"What was the message?" Elena asked. She was happy to hear that Valentina was somewhere out there but it still wasn't easy.

"To stop looking for her that she didn't want to be found," Jax answered. He knew that it wasn't something that any of them were going to be doing anytime soon but they knew she was ok and that was what counted.

"Who's the girl?" Elena asked. 

"She's hanging around with Emilio; she just took Sofia's spot as flyer," Mia explained. She didn't want to say much more than that.

"I'm guessing your plan was to keep this to yourself?" Elena guessed. She wasn't an idiot; she knew these two didn't know them this well. 

"Honestly we figured it would be easier to keep it from you. But i figured if we knew she was ok you should too." Mia admitted this was her best friend and since this was her best friends family they deserved the truth.

"Thank you."

"Of course."

"So we're going to throw you in the air and catch you."

"You better."

"We will your boyfriend is giving us the stink eye."

"As long as you know not to drop me"

"We do."

Mia was sitting with Adriano and Sofia on the bleachers watching cheer practice. Mia knew that it was time for her to have a talk with them too. Adriano was trying to wrap his head around what was happening and any way they could use this to find his sister. "All she said was Valentina wanted us to stop looking." 

"Yeah." Mia nodded. She wished she had more but she didn't and she hadn't been able to find anything else or think of anything else to find her.

"With her hanging with Emilio, it essentially means everyone will leave her alone." Sofia stated. She knew with her cousin's reputation that when people were with him they were always left alone. 

"So you think that Val went to them." Adriano asked. He didn't get why his sister didn't come to him if something was wrong, why she had gone to someone else when she knew he would never let anything happen to her. 

"I don't know. I'm new here all i know if my best friend left she had a hell of a reason for doing so." Mia said. She knew her best friend wasnàt scared of much so if something did scare her away it was obviously for a reason. 

"If she's sending messages through them, it's possible," Sofia stated. She knew her cousin was not someone you wanted to mess with. And that he usually kept to his own things most of the time. But she also knew the girls her cousin talked to always kept to a typical look. Dark hair dark eyes fair skin that was it. But now the new girl was blond with blue hair and blue eyes it didn't make sense.  "But i grew up with my cousin Shy girls aren't his type and that's what Arianna is. Everything my cousin hates he used to hate when i'd dye my hair; he'd help but he didn't like it."

"Can we find anything on Arianna?" Adriano asked. If the new girl was a connection to his sister, he wanted to know everything about her.

"Doubtful." Sofia sighed. As much as she would love to try, she knew better.

"Why?" Mia asked she was sure doing a deep dive was a great way to figure out how to figure this out.

"My cousin's a hacker. He won't leave anything for us to find." Sofia said. As much as she hoped they could she knew better. 

"So what do we do?" Adriano asked. He knew there had to be something they could do to try and find his sister. And if Emilio knew something he wanted to know what it was.

Sofia sighed she knew that Adriano wanted to find his sister and she knew how much he meant to her. But if her cousin knew something about this they were not going to get him to say anything. It was only going to make him more cautious. "Threatening my cousin won't do anything for you, Adriano." 

"Why not?" Adriano asked. He was sure threatening him could help a lot.

"Because he is not scared of you like everyone else." Sofia stated. She knew that for a fact and since she knew that her cousin liked Valentina at one point he was gonna help her. 

"Ugh."

"I know and we are going to find her. But right now we need to be paitent and see what we can find on our end."

"Ok." 

"Jax and i are going to do some research on our end but it isn't going to be easy but Valentina knows what she is doing. And if she says she got this then she probably does." Mia knew Valentina trusted whatever plan she was doing.
