I've been home for an hour now, I've been pacing back and forth waiting for him to call or just come into his room. But time keeps going by and I still hear nothing.
*Ding dong* I hear the doorbell ring and I immediately run downstairs and throw the door open. “Oh, Adenna is your mom home,” Amy asks, Dante's mom “Oh. um no she has a late shift today” I say and she looks sad “Has Dante come home yet” I ask her and she looks up at me surprised “You saw Dante tonight” she asks and I nod “Yes I went to a party with him but he…he had to go and talk to someone so I came back home he said he'd call me when he got back but that was over two hours ago” I say and she looks worried.
“Would you like to go look for him together?” I ask and she looks surprised “Me and Dante made up for a lot of stuff today and I don't want to lose him again so if you'd like some company I'd be more than willing to help you,” I say and she nods “Yes that'd be nice,” she says and I grab my keys from the hook “Okay how about we split up and you search east and I'll do west,” I say and she nods “Thank you Adenna” she smiles softly and I nod “Of course call me if you see anything, and we'll meet back in say an hour,” I ask and she nods “Okay I'll start going this way then,” I say getting in my car.
I immediately go to where the part was and walk up to the house that I can see is trashed and there are bullet holes “DANTE ARE YOU HERE” I yell in the house looking around but it seems to be empty” DANTE?” I call out again “Adenna?” I hear someone say from upstairs and I rush up there “Dante?” I ask with hope but it's shortlived when I see DJ, he's Dante's right hand. “DJ have you seen Dante,” I ask worried and he looks at me surprised “No. I thought he was home already,” he says confused.
“No he hasn't come home his mom is worried and looking for him” I explain and he nods, “Hmm okay let me check his location,” DJ says taking out his phone “Hmm that's strange,” he says clicking his phone “What is it,” I ask, “It says he's here,” he says and calls his phone and then we hear ringing coming from the room. DJ opens the door but there's no Dante it's just his phone on the bed along with his white mask “What the hell” DJ says picking up the mask “Shit” he says throwing it down “What? What's wrong” I ask “There's blood in the mask and look right there,” he says pointing at the doorframe it had a bloody print that looks like someone was trying to hold onto it.
“Fuck. Okay I have to gather some of the guys I want you to check any spots you know he goes to, and me and the guys will check with that gang that attacked us tonight” he says typing on his phone. “O…okay p..please keep me updated if you find him,” I say feeling a heavy weight on my chest. “I will. I promise” he nods and grabs his jacket and we make our way outside he gets on his motorcycle and I get in my car.
We both go in different directions as I head to the abandoned park hoping to find anything. Unfortunately, it's a dead end, but I continue looking around, it's already one and I start heading back to the house. *Ring ring* I look at the screen that is in my car and see my mom calling “Hello” I answer it “Adenna Rose where are you” she asks “Mom Dante hasn't come home yet me and Miss Grey are looking I'm heading back right now” I say and she goes quite “Has Amy filed a report” she asks.
“No, I'm sure she'll be there before me so maybe wait outside for her….Mom, I'm worried about Dante” I say “It'll be okay love just come home and we'll get everything sorted out” she says and I take a deep breath “Okay I'll be there in ten” I say “Okay love you kid be safe” she says and hangs up the phone. I continue driving feeling anxious, feeling like the car is closing in on me, so I pull over to an empty parking lot and get out trying to breathe as steadily as I can. “In and out” I whisper to myself sitting on my car.
“He's okay. He's okay. You're okay” I whisper over and over again. And I eventually work up the courage to drive back home, when I get home my mom is outside talking to Amy who looks so sad. “We'll put an APB out for his car and see if we can locate his phone,” my mom says and I walk up to them “I found his phone.
He left it at DJ's” I say and for a slight second Amy had hope in her eyes. “Did DJ say where Dante was going?” my mom asks “He said that he was heading back home when he last saw him” I respond and she nods writing something down “Okay since it hasn't been 24 hours yet we can not report him missing so I suggest everyone gets some sleep and in the morning Amy me and you can go down to the station and file a report” my mom says and me and Amy both nod “Okay. Thank you both for everything” Amy says with a soft smile.
“Mom I'm gonna walk Amy to her door,” I say and my mom nods and goes inside “Adenna can I tell you something,” she asks and I nod “My motherly instincts are telling me somethings wrong, you'll understand one day when you have children,” she says patting my head, “I think Dante will be alright he is a fighter and he'll do anything to come home to you three” I smile at her and she nods “Thank you Adenna” she smiles and goes inside her house.
