Broken 2:A Second Chance

47

"Where's my son?!" I scream breathlessly and all Josh does is just stare at me.

"Claire please calm down." He tries to pacify me but fails miserably. I lean onto the wall in fear that if I don't hold onto something, I might fall the next minute.

"H-he wen-t out for a while and..and now we can't find him." He stutters. I shake my head while laughing hysterically.

"Just tell me where my son is. I know you're joking. Right? Right?!" I yell and he holds me steadily when I begin to cry.
"Don't touch me! Just tell me where he is. Where is my Noah?" I cry.

Just then a knock sounds at the door.

"I'll get it." Josh says and rushes to the door.
I'm still hugging my knees when I hear commotion from the hallway.

"What the fuck man?" Josh yells while palming his cheek.

Elron stands before him with a balled fist and a scowl on his face.

"What going on?" I ask with a hoarse voice.

Elron pays no attention to the person he just punched and walks to me.

"Why are you crying? Did he do something to you?" He asks while examining my face.

"It's Noah...he's missing." I cry and bury my face in his shoulder.

The words I hear slice through me like knife to bread.

"What do you mean?" I ask and push her back.
Her eyes are teary and glazed over and her mascara has smeared her eyes.

"I came back and I can't find him. He was with Josh and I can't find him." She cries even harder.

Realization hits her and before I realize,she's lunging towards Josh.

"What about Liam? Tell me my son's are okay!" She cried and holds onto his shirt.
"Claire,please calm down." I try to pacify. She jerks away and slumps onto the floor.
Her face is pale and her fingers are visibly shaking.

"He's leukaemic...my son..my baby boy." She mumbles in denial.

What?

"What did you say?" I ask her. She glared at me and her sadness turns to anger and hate.
"If you had looked for me,you would've known that our...my son was leukaemic." She spits and wipes her eyes swiftly.

"Claire what do you mean?" I ask her before looking at Josh.
"What is she talking about?" I ask Josh who seems to be as confused and in shock as I am.

"Yeah,we found out a few weeks ago and he's been progressing,taking his pills and everything." He said with a shrug.

"My sons aren't missing. Find my sons!" She yells at the both of us.

Undisclosed location.

The burly man looks at the little boy with his brother and a sudden anger floods his heart. He didn't know where his sudden hate for children had began since he had a daughter of his own before he went to prison but he didn't care.

The feminine looking boy looks at him with his big doe eyes that are glazed over and he points his gun at the boy.

"Shut up you fucktard!" He yells at the boy who immediately bursts into tears.

"I want my mommy." He cries.

"Calm down Noah, mommy's on her way." The other one tells him. This agitates the man even more and he snacks the little boy on his face.

"Mommy!" He cries and yells at the same time.

"Calm down Bruno." A female voice erupts through the room and a woman clad in tight black leather jumpsuit says and walks closer to the man.

"God,did you really have to pull out the pistol?" She chuckles. "He's just a child man."

"Now look kiddies, we're gonna keep you here for some weeks,maybe months. Well until your grandpa says so. So be good kids and maybe we'll be good to y'all okay?" She tells them before kissing them on their cheek.
