》》》》》》》》

I quickly take my phone and make my way out of the hotel room.l get out of the hotel room and use the emergency exit to go out.

I go to the busy street of new york and hire a cab.l tell the driver the address.l sit back on the seat.
How is it even possible that its him.l trusted him with everything l had.At this rate l might even go crazy.

I don't get why he had to kidnap my parents.l thought it was that Jeremy dude or something like that.

I look out the window and watch the car approach the all too familiar neighbourhood.

I tell him to park two blocks away from the house.He stops there,l get out of the car and pay the driver.Then make my way to his house.His house was at the corner.So it was easy to enter from any angle.

l go to the back of the huge walls and use the gate l once saw when l was here.l open the small gate carefully making sure l don't make any noise.l take out a pin from my hair and pick the lock until it opens.

I enter through the back door.The house was pitch black.l wonder where his parents had went today.l go around the house until l reach the door to a house office.l look at my phone and the red dot was at this exact place.l enter the room and start looking around for a clue,but minutes pass by and no luck.l almost give up until l see a book shelf with a book that was sitting oddly.l walk there and put it in order with the others.

The bookshelf slides open.l enter through the space.Once l enter l met with helpless eyes of my parents.Who are tied in metal chairs and have their mouths covered.They are in a terrible condition.Torn clothes,dirty hair and bloody faces.

I run to them and remove the tapes around their mouths.They start gasping for air.

"Dear you should get out of here".My father says breathlessly.

"No dad l just found you after ninteen long years,how could l leave you in this condition".l say my voice trembling.They both looked really frail and bony.l wonder if they were even given any food.

"No dear they are going to kill you if they find you here".mother says.

"No mum l__,but did they give you any food and is his father also involved.The last time l came here he was really concerned about your whereabouts".l ask them.

"No he doesn't but please leave from here and don't trust anyone my child.Listen here incase we don't make it we have something to tell you".Dad says.

"What".l ask.

"Okay so you see we have been chased since the time we got married to each other by other mafias and powerful business men even the leaders of the world.Both our famillies l mean your mother's side and my side had made this key that can make you have any access to every bank in the world.There is also this underground workshop that only two people knew about and that was me and your mother's father but he was killed so l was the last person remaining who knew.l will tell you the place come closer my dear".l scoot closer to him such that he was able to whisper in my ear.

"The other half of the key is inside a brick in the passage behind mcdonalds.The brick is slightly different from others then the second key is in that base.The base is directly under a church called TIC in mexico.lf you survive today please go stay there in mexico.Change your identity and everything.Don't tell anyone about this promise me you won't".He says.
