The light in my darkness ✅

🌕CHAPTER 11🌑

Third persons point of view

It was almost midnight. Pauline hugs Vince through the sheets and gave him a kiss on the shoulders; thinking he was asleep but he wasn't. His eyes were wide open, waiting for a getaway so he could call Talat.

Pauline has been waiting on him to sleep so she got up. Slowly inching from the bed. Vince was about to held on to her but he changed his mind in a second.

She got up and pulled her purple nightgown close around her waist. She tied two knots and put on her bed slippers.
She tip toed and open and closed the door.

She is getting followed tonight

***

The wind blew in the night. It was a beautiful night but memories aren't that beautiful.

Pauline looked behind her as she cross the backyard. Vince maybe would have become a murder by purpose tonight.
Walter stood under a palm tree with his arms in a jacket pocket.

"Where are they?"

"In a safe place don't worry."

"What do you mean safe?!"

"Keep it down, sis."

He grabs her arm and pulled her in the shadows.

At that same moment Vince was looking at them. He had grab on a black T-shirt and black shorts. He didn't even grab on shoe or his bed slipper, he has Hurried out bare feet. He came out there just in time to see her being pulled into the dark. He saw that it was a man, he just didn't saw the face.

Talat's point of view

I sighed and wiped my face.

"You look like you are about to cry," Shane's annoying voice said. He is so right. I feel like crying from frustrations. Usually I would go to a gun range and fire away but not right now.

Where the fuck is she?

I look up at him and saw him clicking away on keyboards.

"Is like he wiped her from the earth or something."

My hand went up and hit him across his head back.

"Or something!"

"I'll fuck you up Talat, that's my head!" He got up and shove away from the seat. I got up and took his place.

"I'm sorry Shane, for real. Maybe if you hit me back then it will be even," Since he is also my boxing partner, I wouldn't mind.

He gave me a ridiculous look and pulled a soda he took from a refrigerator behind him.

"This isn't a ring game partner," He took a sip of his drink and asked, "What the hell are you going to do anyway? I need to go home, you know I would stay longer if I didn't have babe waiting on me."

"I know, go home to your babe, take your day off tomorrow-"

"You know I can come-"

"Take your day off shane, you deserve it."

My phone vibrated in my pocket and I mouthed to him that I have a call. I watched him took his belongings and leave.

"Hello? Vince?"

"Where is she?"

I rubbed my forehead and closed my eyes. I knew what was coming next.

"Where the fuck is she Morris?!"

"Vince -"

"Where is Caroline?"

"V-"

"Where the fuck are you? Huh? You are a detective, I gave her to you believing she will be under your protection. I gave Matilda to you, Matilda, that I hardly allow to leave my sight. I can't believe this," I heard the pain, rejection and anger in his voice.

A headache burned my forehead like a bulldozer.

"You better find my daughters or else- I really don't know Talat. Please don't let me think negative against you."

I let that slide and asked a question that has been puzzling my brain.

"What about the thing you gave me to keep? She almost found it in the car."

"Oh. Damn. I need to tell her, I tried telling her by putting it in her birthday box, but I made a fool out of myself. I have no idea if she found it. What if she found it and pretend like she didn't?"

"What? What did you do? Vince there is no way you can tell her she has a brother on her birthday."

--------------------------------------------------------------
What are your thoughts?

I know you guys wanted Caroline and Matilda in the view, their point of view will be here soon.

So what kind of bullshit is going on?

Caroline has a brother?!
